The area of a rectangle is 14 square units it has side lengths a and b

Which ratio forms a proportion with 18/27

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

$\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given ratio is $\frac{18}{27}$

9 is the common factor of 18 and 27

divide numerator and denominator by 9

$\frac{18/9}{27/9} =\frac{2}{3}$

hence $\frac{2}{3}$ is proportion with $\frac{18}{27}$

Simplify the expression state any excluded values 2a^2-4a+2 --------------- 3a^2-3

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The simplified form is $\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$ .

$x =1$ is the excluded value for the given expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The expression given is:

$\dfrac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}$

Let us simplify the numerator and denominator separately.

The numerator is given as $2a^2-4a+2$

2 is a common factor in all the three terms. So, we factor it out. This gives,

$=2(a^2-2a+1)$

Now, $a^2-2a+1=(a-1)(a-1)$

Therefore, the numerator becomes $2(a-1)(a-1)$

The denominator is given as: $3a^2-3$

Factoring out 3, we get

$3(a^2-1)$

Now, $a^2-1$ is of the form $a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)$

So, $a^2-1=(a-1)(a+1)$

Therefore, the denominator becomes $3(a-1)(a+1)$

Now, the given expression is simplified to:

$\frac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}=\frac{2(x-1)(x-1)}{3(x-1)(x+1)}$

There is $(x-1)$ in the numerator and denominator. We can cancel them only if $x\ne1$ as for $x=1$ , the given expression is undefined.

Now, cancelling the like terms considering $x\ne1$ , we get:

$\dfrac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}=\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$

Therefore, the simplified form is $\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$

The simplification is true only if $x\ne1$ . So, $x =1$ is the excluded value for the given expression.

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $60

Unitary variable cost= $28

Fixed costs= $15,000

First, we need to calculate the average total cost:

Average cost= total cost / number of units

For example, for 1 unit and 10,000 units:

1 unit:

Average cost= 15,028/1 = 15,028

10,000 units:

Average cost= (15,000 + 28*10,000) / 10,000

Average cost= $29.5

Now, we can calculate the break-even point in units:

0= (60*x) - (28*x) - 15,000

x= number of units to break-even

0= 32x - 15,000

15,000/32= x

468.75=x

break-even point in units= 469

For the desired profit of $10,000:

10,000 = (60*x) - (28*x) - 15,000

25,000= 32x

781.25= x

Break-even point= 782 units

Finally, fixed costs dropped by $8,000:

0= 32x - 7,000

x= 7,000/32

x= 218.75

Break-even point= 219

Difference= 250 units
