Find the distance between -2 1/2 and -5 3/4 on a number line

Mathematics
1 answer:
Elena-2011 [213]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

13/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert these numbers to a mixed fraction.

-5 3/4 => -23/4

-2 1/2 => -5/2

Make them have a common denominator

-5/2 => -10/4

-23/4 can stay the same.

To find the distance between the two numbers, subtract the lesser value from the greater value.

-23/4 is <u>less</u> than -10/4.

(-10 - (-23)) /4

= 13/4

Therefore the distance between -2 1/2 and -5 3/4 on a number line is 13/4.

Natalka [10]

Answer: a) c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1, b) 13 units

Step-by-step explanation: Revenue function = R(x) = 0.21x

Profit function = p(x) = 0.086 - 1.1

Cost function = c(x) =?

A)

Recall that profit = total revenue - total cost

Hence, total cost = total revenue - profit

c(x) = 0.21x - (0.086x - 1.1)

c(x) = 0.21x - 0.086x + 1.1

c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1

B)

Break even point is the point where total revenue equals total cost

R(x) = c(x)

0.21x = 0.124x + 1.1

0.21x - 0.124x = 1.1

0.086x = 1.1

x = 1.1/0.086

x = 12.79 which is approximately 13 units
