A: -3.25 or -13/4,b:-13/4?????
Profit = Income - cost
Profit = 10s - (28 + 3s) = 10s - 28 -3s = 7s - 28.
Profit = 0
0 = 7s - 28
7s = 28
7s = 28/7
s = 4. This is the breakeven point.
Carlota must sell more than 4 shirts to make a profit
Answer:
x² + 2x + (3 / (x − 1))
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by setting up the division:
.........____________
x − 1 | x³ + x² − 2x + 3
Start with the first term, x³. Divided by x, that's x². So:
.........____x²______
x − 1 | x³ + x² − 2x + 3
Multiply x − 1 by x², subtract the result, and drop down the next term:
.........____x²______
x − 1 | x³ + x² − 2x + 3
.........-(x³ − x²)
...........----------
...................2x² − 2x
Repeat the process over again. First term is 2x². Divided by x is 2x. So:
.........____x² + 2x __
x − 1 | x³ + x² − 2x + 3
.........-(x³ − x²)
...........----------
...................2x² − 2x
Multiply, subtract the result, and drop down the next term:
.........____x² + 2x __
x − 1 | x³ + x² − 2x + 3
.........-(x³ − x²)
...........----------
...................2x² − 2x
.................-(2x² − 2x)
.................---------------
.....................................3
x doesn't divide into 3, so that's the remainder.
Therefore, the answer is:
x² + 2x + (3 / (x − 1))
Answer:
1445.6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance between New York and San Francisco = 2902.8 miles (checked online)
Average speed of car = 2 mi/hr
Average speed of jet = 500 mi/hr
Time taken by Jet:
Time taken = Distance / speed
Time taken = 2902.8 / 500
Time taken = 5.8056 = 5.8 hours
Time taken by Car :
Time taken = Distance / speed
Time taken = 2902.8 / 2
Time taken = 5.8056 = 1451.4 hours
Time difference :
1451.4 - 5.8 = 1445.6 hours
The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable.
We have then:
x: weight of each pallet with cement
We then have the following equation:
16x = 4856
Clearing x we have:
x = (4856) / (16)
x = 303.5 punds
Answer:
each pallet with cement weigh:
x = 303.5 punds
