Answer:

(A) the number of units produced and sold at break-even point is the value of X and that is 1.126 units.

(B) the dollar amount coming in and going out at this point/level is the price of X and that is 0.37 dollars

(C) the profit function for X units produced and sold is: π(x) = R(x) - C(x)

where pie (the symbol "π") represents PROFIT.

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) C(x) = 75x + 84 ...(equation 1)

660R(x) = 245x

R(x) = 245x ÷ 660 = 0.3712x

So R(x) = 0.3712x ...(equation 2)

To find X, equate the cost function to the revenue function

75x + 84 = 0.3712x

X = -1.126units

Since quantity cannot be negative in real life situation, we use the modulus of X in place of the above value.

|X| = 1.126 hence X = 1.126 now

Since we equated cost to revenue in order to get this quantity X, X is the quantity produced and sold at break even point.

Break-even point is the point where cost = revenue

This is also the point where profit is zero because profit = revenue - cost

(B) Revenue = Price × Quantity

R = P×Q

Our revenue here is 0.3712x

Which is equal to 0.418 dollars

So P = R÷Q

Price = 0.418÷1.126 = 0.37 dollars

(C) This is the profit function from producing and selling X units of the product: π(x) = R(x) - C(x)

Louann and Carla received equal scores on a test made up of multiple choice questions and an essay. Louann got 14 multiple choic
Gnoma [55]
Louann= 14x+24
Carla= 16x+14
 So basically this is just like solving equations. The way I did this was just put random numbers for x and then solve it.
First attempt: 
14(7)+24=16(7)+14
98+24=112+14
122=126
 Okay the first one didn't work so I use 6 for x. 
Second attempt: 
14(6)+24=16(6)+14
84+24=96+14
108=110

So 6 didn't work and you already should know that the answers should be between 1 and 5. 

So now I going to do 5 for x
Third attempt:
14(5)+24=16(5)+14
70+24=80=14
94=94
 
And so the answer is 5! :D The multiply choice questions were worth 5 points and Louann and Carla had 94 for their scores! I hope this help you out and clear for you! :D

3(d-8) - 5 = 9(d+2) + 1
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

d = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

3(d-8) - 5 = 9(d+2) + 1

3d-24 - 5 = 9d+18 + 1

3d - 29 = 9d + 19

9d - 3d = -29 - 19

6d = - 48

6d / 6 = -48/6

d = -8

You have a wooden rod which is 24 1/2 inches long. Carlos needs a piece which is 8 3/4 inches long and Amanda needs a piece whic
ipn [44]

Answer:

8 3/4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of the rod = 24 1/2 inches

Carlos = 8 3/4 inches

Amanda = 6 3/8 inches

length of the rod remaining = Total length - ( Carlos + Amanda)

= 24 1/2 - (8 3/4 + 6 3/8)

= 49/2 - (35/4 + 51/8)

= 49/2 - ( 75+51/8)

= 49/2 - 126/8

= 196-126/8

= 70/8

= 8 6/8 inches

= 8 3/4 inches

Length of rod remaining = 8 3/4 inches
