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

so

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

Anyone know the area?
Elina [12.6K]
Answer:  The area of the triangle is:  " 8.5 cm² " ; 

                                         or, write as:  " 8\frac{1}{2} cm² " .
_______________________________________________________
Explanation:
_________________________________________________________
The formula {"equation"} for the area of a triangle is:

A = (\frac{1}{2}) * b * h ;
   
in which:  A = area; 
                 b = base;
                 h = [perpendicular] height;
___________________________________
{also, can be written as:  " A = (b * h) / 2 " .}.
______________________________________
Solve for the area, "A" ; by plugging in the known values shown in the figure (image attached):
______________________________________
                             base, "b" = 13 cm ;
[perpendicular] height, "h" =  5 cm ;
______________________________________
A = (b * h) / 2 ;

   = (13 cm * 5 cm) / 2 ; 

   = [ (13 * 5) cm²] / 2 ; 

    = 65 cm² / 2 ;

A  = " 8.5 cm² " ; or, write as:  " 8\frac{1}{2} cm² " .
_________________________________________________________
Answer:  " 8.5 cm² " ; or, write as:  " 8\frac{1}{2} cm² " .

WHat is 20/7 written as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth?
S_A_V [24]
To solve this, you just divide 20 divided by 7.

20/7 = <span>2.85714285714

If you are trying to round to the nearest tenth, the next decimal place (hundredths) is a 5, so you must round 2.8 up one more digit.

Your final answer is that</span> 20/7 = 2.9 when rounded to the nearest tenth.
