<em>The company needs to sell 40 desks to break even</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Application of Equations</u>
There is virtually no limit to the possible situations where equations can help to find the solution of specific problems related to areas like economy, where one could need to establish some important indicators about the business.
B. The fixed cost for Abstract Office Supplies to sell a new computer desk is $14,000. Each desk will cost $150 to produce. The cost function to produce X desks is
C(x)=150x+14,000
A. The revenue for each desk is estimated at $500, for X desks will be
R(x)=500x
C. The company will break even when the cost and the revenue are the same. We'll find how many desks need to be sold for that to happen. We equate
C(x)=R(x)
Or equivalently
150x+14,000=500x
Rearranging
500x-150x=14,000
350x=14,000
Solving for x
x=14,000/350= 40
The company needs to sell 40 desks to break even
Two parallel lines are skew if they are not parallel but are in different planes, which means that they will not intersect, in spite of they are not parallel.
The answer is 286
Step-by-step explanation:
70 x 4 = 280 plus 6 equals 286
(40-10)/7
The maximum amount of money she wants to spend is $40
Her adult ticket costs $10
She will pay for the children’s tickets with the remaining money
Each child’s ticket costs $7
To find the number of children she can take we need to use this expression (40-10)/7
Mrs Herñàndez can take 4 children
