Answer: it will take 40 rides to break even.

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit = Revenue - total cost

At the point of break even, there is no profit. It means that

revenue = total cost

The cost c (in dollars) for the fuel and maintenance of a go-cart is given by

c = 10x + 1200

where x is the number of rides. It costs $40 per ride. This means that the revenue gotten from x rides is 40x.

In order to break even, it means that

40x = 10x + 1200

40x - 10x = 1200

30x = 1200

x = 1200/30

x = 40

A group of adults and students went on a class trip to Washington, DC. The number of male students was 1 more than 7 times the n
Helga [31]
In equation, let x be the number of male students
a be the number of adults
y be the number of female students.
x= 7a+1
a= x/7 -1
y= x/2 or (7a + 1)/ 2

a + b = 82, let b be the number of students.
a + (x + y) = 82
a + [7a+1 + (7a+1)/2] = 82
a + [{2(7a+1) + 7a+1} / 2] = 82
a + [(14a +2 + 7a +1) / 2] = 82
a + [(21a + 3) / 2] = 82
(2a+ 21a + 3) / 2 = 82
(23a + 3) / 2 = 82
23a + 3 = 164
23a = 164 -3 
23a = 161
a = 7

x = 7(7) +1, 49+1 = 50 male students
y=x/2, 50/2, 25 female students

50(male students) + 25(female students)  + 7 (adults) = 82

George charged a motorized bicycle on his credit card for $2,000 on June 12. His balance before that purchase on that credit car
Gnesinka [82]
The calculation uses the accumulated daily balance method (ADB).
We assume the statement is based on calendar month (rare!).

George owes $500 from beginning to end of June, so 30 days out of 30.
Interest accrued is 500*0.013*30/30=$6.50.
He also owes $2000 from June 12 to June 30, so 19 days inclusively.
Interest accrued is $2000*.013*(19/30)=16.47
Total interest at the end of the month=$6.50+$16.47=$22.97
