A company manufactures and sells novelty mugs.The manufacturing costs consists of a fixed cost of R8 000 and a variable cost of

R 15.00 per mug. The mugs are sold at R35. 00 each. Assume a linear profit function.
Determine the profit function.
What is the Break-even level?
Draw a graph depicting the profit function.

Ok so

8000=cost
profit-8000
then
another cost is 15rand per mug
but profit of 35 rand
35-15=20
profit of 20rand per mug

profit=R20m-R8000
where m=number of mugs sold
(R20 means 20 rand)


f(m)=R20m-R8000

break even means cost=earned
basically, when profit=0
0=R20m-R8000
add 8000 to both sides
R8000=R20m
divide both sides by 20
400=m

break even is 400 mugs


graph should be easy enough
put a point at (0,-8000) and at (400,0) then connect them



profit
f(x)=R20x-R8000
break even is 400 mugs

put points (0,-8000) and (400,0) and connect them

How many days will it take for a sum of $4,000 to earn $80 interest if it is deposited in a bank paying ordinary simple interest
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

It will take 146 days to earn an interest of $80.

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest formula is:

I=\frac{P\times r\times t}{100}

It is provided that:

I = $80

P = $4,000

r = 5% p.a.

Compute the time required as follows:

I=\frac{P\times r\times t}{100}

t=\frac{I\times 100}{P\times r}

  =\frac{80\times 100}{4000\times 5}\\\\=0.4\ \years\\\\=0.4\times 365\ days\\\\=146\ days

Thus, it will take 146 days to earn an interest of $80.

Which which value is not located between square root 9/3 2n
tangare [24]

3 and -3 are said to be the square roots of 9. A square root is written with a radical symbol √ and the number or expression inside the radical symbol, below denoted a, is called the radicand. ... Negative numbers don't have real square roots since a square is either positive or 0.

a manufacturer has determined that if his company sells x items per day then their profit is given by P=-x^2+ 700 x-10000 euros.
Radda [10]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the minimum amount of items, x, that need to be sold for the manufacturer to make a profit, we can use the quadratic formula

x = \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}; x=  \frac{-b-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

x= \frac{-700+\sqrt{700^{2}-4(a)(-10000) } }{2(1)}; x= \frac{-700-\sqrt{700^{2}-4(a)(-10000) } }{2(1)}

x= \frac{-700+\sqrt{530000} }{2}; x= \frac{-700-\sqrt{530000} }{2}

x=\frac{-700+100\sqrt{53} }{2}; x=\frac{-700-100\sqrt{53} }{2};

x=-350 + 50\sqrt53 = 14.005; x = -350 - 50\sqrt53 = -714.005

In context of the problem, we can only rely on the positive value, as the negative value would lead to a loss of profit.

(-714.005)^2+700(-714.005)-10000=-0.360

Furthermore, we must round to the nearest whole number, as you cannot make part of an item.

Lastly, if you were to plug in 14 into the equation for Profit, you would still have a negative number (i.e. a negative profit), thus requiring the manufacturer to make no less than 15 items to make a profit:

(14)^2+700(14)-10000=-4\\\\(15)^2+700(15)-10000=725
