<u>Information:</u>

Fixed Cost = $32,634
Variable Cost = $8.75 per book.
Selling Price = $24.50 per book.

<u>Define x:</u>

Let x be the number of books sold.

<u>Construct Equation:</u>

For production cost to be equal auto money from sales:
⇒ 24.5x = 32634 + 8.75x 

<u>Solve x:
</u>
24.5x = 32634 + 8.75x 

Take away 8.75x from both sides:
15.75x = 32634

Divide both sides by 15.75:
x = 2072

Answer: The publisher must sell 2072 books.

Rita earns $16.00 per hour. If she gets a 3% raise, what will be her new hourly wage?
Vikentia [17]
All percentages can be expressed as fractions or decimals. To find a percentage of a number, we multiply the percentage with the number. In this case:
3/100 * 16/1 = 48/100 = 0.48
Or:
0.03 * 16 = 0.48
Her new hourly wage would be $16.48

What is the volume of a sphere with a radius of 4
Ede4ka [16]

Step-by-step explanation: To find the volume of a sphere, start with the formula for the volume of a sphere which is shown below.

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi  r^{3}

Here, we are given that our sphere has a radius of 4 units.

So plugging into the formula, we have (\frac{4}{3})(\pi)(4 units)^{3}.

Start by simplifying the exponent.

(4 units)³ is equal to (4 units) (4 units) (4 units) or 64 units³.

So we have (\frac{4}{3})(\pi)(64 units^3}).

Next, we multiply (4/3)(64) which can

be thought of as (4/3)(64/1)

So multiplying across the numerators and across the denominators,

we have \frac{256}{3} \pi units^{3}.

A circle has a diameter of 6 centimeters what is the approximate area of the circle​
KiRa [710]

Answer:

28.26 cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius is half of the diameter. 6/2 = 3, so the radius of this circle is 3 cm.

The formula for the area of a circle is: πr^{2}

Plugging 3 into the radius, we have:

3^{2} × π =

9 × π

We can round π to 3.14

9 × 3.14 = 28.26
