Answer:

d. May

Step-by-step explanation:

To find when Kesia records got to break even, we first need to find how much they made total per month.

Now we need to first find how much they made on January.

The production cost of January will be:

Production cost = 5486 x 1.13

Production cost = $6199.18

Now that we know the production cost, we need to solve first for the total revenue.

Total Sales Revenue = 5486 x 9.75

Total Sales Revenue = $53488.50

Now that we have both the revenue and the production cost, we need can find how much profit by:

Profit = Total Sales Revenue - Production cost - Overhead

Profit = 53488.50 - 6199.18 - 27714

Profit = $19575.32

So they made a profit of $19575.32 by the end of January.

Now we move on to the other months.

Production cost = 8191 x 1.13

Production cost = $9255.83

Total Sales Revenue = 8191 x 9.75

Total Sales Revenue = $79862.25

Profit = 79862.25 - 9255.83 - 21689

Profit = $48917.42

Now that we have the profit for 2 months, we simply add them together.

Current Value = 19575.32 + 48917.42

Current Value = 68492.74

By doing the same process with the rest of the months, we get:

Refer to Image.

We can see in the image that by May they reach a total profit of $149897.77.

Since Kesia records paid $148950, the company got to break even at the month of May.

Jim began a 165 mile bicycle trip to build up stamina for a triathlete competition unfortunately his bike chain broke so he fini
denpristay [2]

Answer: Approximately 4.7 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

He rode the bicycle for some time before it broke down and he walked the remaining distance. This means that Jim covered a total of 165 miles by riding at a speed of 35 miles per hour and walking at a speed of 3 miles per hour.

Let x = the distance covered by riding the bicycle.

Let y = the distance covered by walking.

Time = distance /speed

Time he used in riding would be x/35

Time he used in walking would be y/3

Since the entire trip took 7 hours,

x/35 + y/3 = 7

3x + 35y = 735 - - - - - - - - 1

Total miles covered is 165. Therefore,

x + y = 165 - - - - - - - - -- - -2

Substituting x = 165-y into equation 1, it becomes

3(165-y) + 35y = 735

495-3y + 35y = 735

-3y + 135y = 735-495

132y = 240

y = 240/132

y = 1.81m

x = 165 - 1.81 = 163.19

Amount of time that he spent on the bicycle will be

x/35 = 163.19/35

= 4.66

Approximately 4.7 hours.

a newborn boa constrictor measure 18 inches long. An adult boa constrictor measures 9 times the lenght of the newborn plus 2 inc
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
Newborn = 18 inches
adult boa = 9 * 18 + 2 = 164 inches

Since all the information is given, then merely put the necessary facts in order. 

Had the length of the newborn been unknown, it would have been represented by x.

9x + 2 = 164
9x = 164 - 2
9x = 162
9x/9 = 162/9
x = 18
