Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
19
----- = x
40-3a
Step-by-step explanation:
3(ax + 9) = -4 (-2 - 10x)
Distribute
3ax +27 = 8+40x
Subtract 3ax from each side
3ax-3ax +27 = 8+40x-3ax
27 = = 8+40x-3ax
Subtract 8 from each side
27-8 = 8-8+40x-3ax
19 = 40x-3ax
Factor an x on the right side
19 = x(40-3a)
Divide each side by 40-3a
19/(40-3a) = x(40-3a)/(40-3a)
19
----- = x
40-3a
What is the question here???
Answer:
2000 bars, or $1200
Explanation:
Let x represent the number of candy bars that are sold. Since they are sold for $0.60 each, this gives us the expression
0.60x
to represent the profit.
The factor has $0.10 per candy bar additional expense; this gives us the expression
0.10x.
However the factory also has $1000 fixed costs; this gives us
0.10x + 1000
to represent the costs.
The break-even point is the point where these two expressions are equal; this gives us the equation
0.60x = 0.10x + 1000
Subtract 0.10x from each side:
0.60x - 0.10x = 0.10x + 1000 - 0.10x
0.50x = 1000
Divide both sides by 0.50:
0.50x/0.50 = 1000/0.50
x = 2000
The break-even point is 2000 candy bars, which would sell for
0.60(2000) = $1200
