Answer:

in units: 18,900

in dollars: $ 41,013

Step-by-step explanation:

The break even point is the sales dollar amount or sales in unit at whichthe operating income of the firm equals to zero:\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution \:Margin} = Break\: Even\: Point_{units }

Where:

\frac{Contribution \: Margin}{Sales \: Revenue} = Contribution \: Margin \: Ratio

<em><u>Contribution margin:</u></em>

2.17 - 1.27 = 1 dollar per unit

Break even:

$18,900 fixed cost /  $1 per unit = 18,900 units

Then, in sales:

18,900 x $2.17 each = 41.013‬

Answer: Pete's corporation would break even when they sell 21000 bags of peanuts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of bags of peanuts that Pete corporation would produce and sell to break even.

The fixed cost of production is $18,900 while the unit cost of producing a bag of peanut is $1.27. This means that the total cost of producing x bags of peanuts would be

1.27x + 18900

Each bag sells for $2.17. This means that the total revenue selling from x bags of peanuts would be

2.17x

At the point of break even, total cost of production = total revenue. Therefore,

1.27x + 18900 = 2.17x

2.17x - 1.27x = 18900

0.9x = 18900

x = 18900/0.9

x = 21000

∠A and ∠B are supplementary, and ∠A and ∠C are supplementary. Which conclusion is valid? Select one: A. ∠B and ∠C are supplement
zysi [14]

Option D is the correct answer.

Answer:

D. ∠B and ∠C are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, ∠A and ∠B are supplementary.

Therefore,

∠A + ∠B = 180°.....(1)

Since, ∠A and ∠C are supplementary.

Therefore,

∠A + ∠C = 180°.....(2)

From equations (1) & (2)

∠A + ∠B = ∠A + ∠C

=> ∠B = ∠C

Hence, ∠B and ∠C are congruent.

Match the vocabulary word to its correct definition.
Trava [24]

Answer:

1. Complex number.

2. Imaginary part of a complex number.

3. Real part of a complex number.

4. i

5. Multiplicative inverse.

6. Imaginary number.

7. Complex conjugate.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. <u><em>Complex number:</em></u> is the sum of a real number and an imaginary number: a + bi, where a is a real number and b is the imaginary part.

2. <u><em>Imaginary part of a complex number</em></u>: the part of a complex that is multiplied by i; so, the imaginary part of the complex number a + bi is b; the imaginary part of a complex number is a real number.

3. <em><u>Real part of a complex number</u></em>: the part of a complex that is not multiplied by i. So, the real part of the complex number a + bi is a; the real part of a complex number is a real number.

4. <u><em>i:</em></u> a number defined with the property that 12 = -1.

5. <em><u>Multiplicative inverse</u></em>: the inverse of a complex number a + bi is a complex number c + di such that the product of these two numbers equals 1.

6. <em><u>Imaginary number</u></em>: any nonzero multiple of i; this is the same as the square root of any negative real number.

7. <em><u>Complex conjugate</u></em>: the conjugate of a complex number has the opposite imaginary part. So, the conjugate of a + bi is a - bi. Likewise, the conjugate of a - bi is a + bi. So, complex conjugates always occur in pairs.
