<span> For this case we have the following equation:
</span> c (x) = 15x + 12000&#10;
<span> Where,
 x: number of chips
 c (x): total cost
 To find the fixed cost, we must find the intersection with the y axis of the given equation.
 So we have that for x = 0:
</span> c (0) = 15 (0) + 12000&#10;&#10;c (0) = 12000<span>
 Therefore, the fixed production cost is given by:
</span> c (0) = 12000&#10;
<span> Answer:
 The fixed cost of producing the chips is:
 c (0) = 12000</span>

Answer:

The given equation is c(x)=15x + 12000. Also given is that the company sells each chip for $20

Here, 'x' is the number of chips  and c(x) is the total cost .

To find the fixed cost, we will put x=0 to find the intersection with y-axis.

Now, putting x=0 in the given equation, we get

c(0)=15(0)+12000

c(0)=12000

Hence, the fixed cost for producing the chips is c(0) = 12000.

Solve for x. 2 1/2 x−3/4(2x+5)=3/8 ​
MAXImum [283]
First, convert all of the fractions to decimals:
2.5x - .75 (2x + 5) = .375
Then distribute the parenthesis:
2.5x - 1.5x + 3.75 = .375
Subtract the 1.5x:
1x + 3.75 = .375
Subtract 3.75 from both sides:
1x = -3.375
Convert back to fraction:
1x = -3 375/1000
Simplify:
X = -3 3/8

Someone please help me with this math problem?

Answer:

The length of the shortest side of the triangle is 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>a</em> be the shortest side of the isosceles triangle and <em>b</em> be the two congruent sides.

The congruent sides <em>b</em> are each one unit longer than the shortest side. Hence:

b=a+1

The perimeter of the isosceles triangle is given by:

\displaystyle P_{\Delta}=b+b+a=2b+a

This is equivalent to the perimeter of a square whose side lengths are two units shorter than the shortest side of the triangle. Let the side length of the square be <em>s</em>. Hence:

s=a-2

The perimeter of the square is:

\displaystyle P_{\text{square}}=4s=4(a-2)

Since the two perimeters are equivalent:

2b+a=4(a-2)

Substitute for <em>b: </em>

<em />2(a+1)+a=4(a-2)<em />

Solve for <em>a</em>. Distribute:

2a+2+a=4a-8

Simplify:

3a+2=4a-8

Hence:

a=10

The length of the shortest side of the triangle is 10 units.
