Answer:
Part a) 3.5 weeks
Part b) 185 tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
Part a) After how much time have the same number of tickets been sold for both festivals?
Let
x -----> the number of weeks
y ----> the number of tickets sold
we have
<em>Country Music Festival</em>
----> equation A
<em>Pop Music Festival</em>
----> equation B
Equate equation A and equation B

solve for x



Part b) What is the number of tickets sold at that time?
substitute the value of x=3.5 weeks in the linear equation A or linear equation B



Answer:
Break-even point in units= 20,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Selling price per unit= $29.99
Unitary variable cost= $14.25
Fixed costs= $314,800
<u>To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:</u>
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 314,800 / (29.99 - 14.25)
Break-even point in units= 20,000
1/6 = 1 batch, 2/6 = 2 batches and so on
if the factory used 1/2, the factory used 3/6 of a barrel, which equals to 3 batches.
