<u>Answer:</u>

<u>20,000 packages.</u>

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The rest of the question is as following:

If x represents the number of packages of dog treats, how many packages do they have to sell to break even? Round your answer to the nearest whole number, and do not include units.

=========================================

The function of fixed and variable costs ⇒ C(x) = 1.4x + 2000

The function of revenue ⇒ R(x) = 1.5x

The even situation will happen when costs = revenue

∴ C(x) = R(x)

∴ 1.4 x + 2000 = 1.5x

Solve for x:

∴ 1.5x - 1.4x = 2000

∴ 0.1 x = 2000

∴ x = 2000/0.1 = 20,000

The even will happen when they sell <u>20,000</u> packages

So, To break even, they have to sell more than 20,000 packages .

If I bought shoes for 32.30 with 15% off 7%sales tax a 25dollar gift card but had a coupon that was forgotten for 5%off the orig
Otrada [13]

Answer:

 $4.37 cash outlay

 $29.37 total amount paid, partly with gift card

Step-by-step explanation:

The discount was ...

  0.15 × $32.30 = $4.845 ≈ $4.85

So the price to which tax is added is ...

  $32.30 -4.85 = $27.45

The amount of tax is 7% of this value, or ...

  tax = $27.45 × 0.07 = $1.9215 ≈ $1.92

So, payment is made on the amount ...

  $27.45 + 1.92 = $29.37

$29.37 is the total amount paid.

If $25 is paid using a gift card, then the cash outlay is $4.37.

_____

Usually only a single coupon can be applied to a given purchase. Since the 15% store discount exceeds the amount of the 5% coupon left at home, it makes more sense to claim the 15% store discount and save the 5% coupon for another time.

__

<em>Alternate interpretation</em>

If, by some magic, both discounts could be applied, then the amount to be paid is $27.65, of which $2.65 exceeds the gift card amount. The calculation proceeds the same way, except that 20% is used instead of 15%.
