Answer:

They need to sell 9400 pies to reach the break-order point

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the break-order point

- The break-order point is the point at which total cost and total

  revenue are equal

∴ The total cost = The total revenue

* Lets solve the problem

∵ The equation of the total cost is y = 0.65x + 1410

∵ The revenue equation is y = 0.8x

- To find the break-order point equate the two equations

∴ 0.65x + 1410 = 0.8x

- Subtract 0.65x from both sides

∴ 1410 = 0.8x - 0.65x

∴ 0.15x = 1410

- Divide both sides by 0.15

∴ x = 1410/0.15 = 9400

∵ x is the number of pies

* They need to sell 9400 pies to reach the break-order point

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Dimension of poster board = 1 yd by 1 yd

Dimension of each poster sign = 1/3 yd by 1/9 yd

Number of poster signs that can be cut :

Area of poster sign = 1/3 * 1/9 = 1/27 yard²

Area of poster board = 1 yard²

Number of poster signs that can be cut :

Area of poster board / area of poster sign

1 yard² ÷ (1/27) yard²

1 ÷ 1/27

1 * 27/1

= 27 poster signs
