Answer: 100 rides are needed to break even.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given the cost function
C(x)=15x+2000 where x is the number of rides.
And rides cost 35$
⇒ revenue function would be 35 times x
i.e.R(x)=35 x , where x is the number of rides.
Break even point of a firm occurs when at a certain point x the total cost equals to the total revenue.
i.e. at break even point
total revenue=total cost
⇒35x=15x+2000
⇒35-15x=2000[subtract 15x from both sides]
⇒20x=2000 [simplify]
⇒x=2000/20[dividing both sides with 20]
⇒x=100
∴ 100 rides are needed to break even.

Answer:
Ted will need
cups of pretzels to make 15 cups of trail mix.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ted is making trail mix for a party. He mixes 1 1/2 cups of nuts, 1/4 cup of raisins, and 1/4 cup of pretzels.
So, 1/4 cup of pretzels to make 1 trail mix
x cups of pretzels to make 15 trail mix
Using the ratio and proportional
∴ x = (1/4) * 15 = 3.75 =
cups.
<u>Ted will need </u>
<u> cups of pretzels to make 15 cups of trail mix.</u>
