Answer:
x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
move all the constants (numbers without variables) to one side to get
-4x = 42 - 2
-4x = 40
multiply by -1
4x = -40
divide by 4
x = -10
The # halfway in between 21 and 63 is 42.
Answer:
Cost function C(x) == FC + VC*Q
Revenue function R(x) = Px * Q
Profit function P(x) =(Px * Q)-(FC + VC*Q)
P(12000) = -38000 Loss
P(23000) = 28000 profit
Step-by-step explanation:
Total Cost is Fixed cost plus Variable cost multiplied by the produce quantity.
(a)Cost function
C(x) = FC + vc*Q
Where
FC=Fixed cost
VC=Variable cost
Q=produce quantity
(b)
Revenue function
R(x) = Px * Q
Where
Px= Sales Price
Q=produce quantity
(c) Profit function
Profit = Revenue- Total cost
P(x) =(Px * Q)-(FC + vc*Q)
(d) We have to replace in the profit function
<u>at 12,000 units </u>
P(12000) =($20 * 12,000)-($110,000 + $14*12,000)
P(12000) = -38000
<u>at 23,000 units </u>
P(x) =($20 * 23,000)-($110,000 + $14*23,000)
P(23000) = 28000
