Answer:
<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
2^7b = 2^5
Now you have like bases. This means that you can set the exponents equal , meaning 7b= 5. B =5\7
and 
use the second expression to calculate the left-hand side of the first equation:
Add 10 to both sides if this equation to get
and divide both sides by 2
this proves that x = 17, give the two initial equations
Answer:
508.68 or 508.7
Step-by-step explanation:
V=1/3(3.14)(9)^2(6)
(3.14)(81) x 6
(3.14)(486)
1/3(1526)
(divide by 3)= 508.68
