Answer:

The Company AB must sell 116 computers to break even

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$R(x)=1.5x$ -----> equation A

$C(x)=145+\frac{1}{4}x$ ----> equation B

where

C is the cost function

R is the revenue function

x is the number of computers sold

we know that

Break even is when the cost is equal to the revenue

equate equation A and equation B

$1.5x=145+\frac{1}{4}x$

Solve for x

subtract 1/4x both sides

$1.5x-\frac{1}{4}x=145$

$1.5x-0.25x=145$

$1.25x=145$

Divide by 1.25 both sides

$x=116$

therefore

The Company AB must sell 116 computers to break even

Which expression completes the identity cos u sin v = ?

Lilit [14]

The product of trigonometric functions can be converted into sum ans vice versa. The given function is a product and we can convert it to a sum.One way is to expand the given expression and simplify it to find the result.

The second and easier option is to just remember the formulas of product to sum conversion identities. The 4 formulas for this case are listed below in the image.

Since we have the product of cos and sin, the sum will involve two sine functions connected by addition.

So the correct answer is option A
