Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the break even point is the point where the cost and the revenue equations intersect. So the break even point in this situation is:
C= R
<=> 20/3x+50 = 10x (with x > 0 and x is a whole number)
<=>
-50x -20 = 0
<=> x ≈ 5
If the company sells more than 5 items, it will have benefit
If the company sells less than 5 items, it will lose
(4/9)/x = 12
(4/9) = 12x
Divide both sides by 12
(1/27) =x
The idea is to pair up the terms, factor each sub-group, and then pull out the overall GCF to fully factor.
x^3+5x^2-6x-30
(x^3+5x^2)+(-6x-30)
x^2(x+5)+(-6x-30)
x^2(x+5)-6(x+5)
(x^2-6)(x+5)
-------------
Answer: (x^2-6)(x+5)
Answer:
Part A. x = 1/26 Part B. x = 1/50
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
26 x = 1
Divide both sides by 26:
Answer: x = 1/26
___________________
Solve for x:
50 x = 1
Divide both sides by 50:
Answer: x = 1/50
