Answer:

Bruce needs to sell 267 widgets each month to make a profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, you can write that the cost of the monthly rent plus the cost  in labor and materials to make each widget for the number of widgets is equal to the amount of sales:

10x +4000 = 25x

Now, you can solve for x:

4000 =25x-10x

4000=15x

x= 266.67→267

According to this, the answer is that Bruce needs to sell 267 widgets each month to make a profit.

y=3x+1

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept

The slope-intercept form is y=mx+b

, where m is the slope and b

is the y-intercept.

y=mx+b

Find the values of m

and b using the form y=mx+b

.

m=3

b=1

The slope of the line is the value of m

, and the y-intercept is the value of b

.

Slope: 3

Y-Intercept: 1

Any line can be graphed using two points. Select two x

values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y

values.


Choose 0

to substitute in for x

to find the ordered pair.


Replace the variable x

with 0

in the expression.

f(0)=3(0)+1

Is triangle abc ~ triangle def ?
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Unable to be determined.

Step-by-step explanation:

AA postulate : 2 corresponding angles that are congruent.

SSS theorem : 3 sides of a triangle that are equal to another triangle's 3 sides.

SAS postulate: 2 sides and their included angle are congruent to another triangle's 2 sides and their included angle.

This would seem to follow the SAS postulate at first, but the angle we are provided is not the included angle of the sides. In triangle ABC, we are analyzing lines AB and AC. Their included angle is A, but we are given the measure for angle B.

Same with DEF; we analyze DE and DF, who share angle A, but we are given angle E as a measure.

Therefore, we cannot determine if the triangles are similar or not.
