Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost and revenue are equal when ...
C = R
2.5x +21 = 6x
21 = 3.5x . . . . . . subtract 2.5x
6 = x . . . . . . . . . .divide by 3.5
The company must sell 6 items to break even.
The first step is to identify the order in which the equation must be solved, by following PEMDAS (you might know it as BEDMAS):
Parenthesis (or Brackets)
Exponents
Multiplication and Division
Addition and Subtraction
My advice would be to add parenthesis, following these rules, if you are not very good at finding them immediately by sight.
So:

Answer:
A .The expression 2l+2(3l+1) shows the width is 1 more than 3 times the length.
Step-by-step explanation:
p = 8l + 2
Length = l
Width:
2w = p - 2l
2w = (8l + 2) - 2l
2w = 6l + 2
w = 3l + 1
Therefor w is 3 times the length plus 1
Answer:
The length of BC = 28 units
Step-by-step explanation:
* In triangle ABC
∵ Angles B and C are congruent
∴ m∠B = m∠C
* In any triangle if two angles are equal in measure, then the triangle is isosceles means the two sides which opposite to the congruent angles are equal in length
∴ AB = AC
∵ AB = 4x - 7
∵ AC = 2x + 7
∴ 4x - 7 = 2x + 7 ⇒ collect like terms
∴ 4x - 2x = 7 + 7
∴ 2x = 14 ⇒ divide both sides by 2
∴ x = 14 ÷ 2 = 7
* Now we can find the length of BC
∵ The length of BC = 4x ⇒ substitute the value of x
∴ The length of BC = 4 × 7 = 28 units
