Answer:

(a) 30,000 + 14,000x (b) 350y (c) 350y - (30,000 + 14,000x) (d) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Total cost = 30,000 + 3,000x + 11,000x = 30,000 + 14,000x

(b) Total revenue = 350y

(c) Total profit = Total revenue - total cost = 350y - (30,000 + 14,000x)

(d) To break even, the total profit of the school should be $0 or more. If they decide to use 5 cars with 4 students assigned to each car, 16 times a year (eight times with two sessions each) then we have a total  of 20 students. Using our formula total profit is equal to 350(320) - (30,000 + 14000(5)) = $112,000 - $100,000 = $12,000 profit

Find the value of x
AfilCa [17]
The answer is X = 12.
This is how to get that answer: the formula for the intersecting secant and tangent outside the circle is a^2 = b(b+c) If you use the numbers in the pic you will get x^2 = 9(9+7) so the number after the equal sign will be 144, so x^2 = 144. To undo the square youre gonna use the square root on both sides, so you have X = 12.

Solve and SHOW YOUR WORK for the equation 3(4x – 2) = 9 + 2x + 5
enot [183]
Remember
you can do anyting to an equaiton as long as you do it to both sidess

distributive property
a(b+c)=ab+ac
commutativ property
a+b=b+a

distribute
3(4x-2)=12x-6

12x-6=9+2x+5
add 6 both sides
12x+6-6=9+6+5+2x
12x+0=20+2x
minus 2x
10x=20
