If we let the number of flip-flops be x in the equation and that the cost would be y ( in terms of x) and the income would be z ( in terms of x), these equations will likely intersect each other during breakeven. That is, when the total revenue that the company will gain from sales of the flip-flops just be equal with the total cost.
Answer:
g(2) = 27 is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the function is g(x) = (5 - x)³
By expanding (5 - x)³ = 5³-3.5²x + 15x² -x³
g(x) = 125 - 75x + 15x² - x³
Now g(2) = 125 - 75×2 + 15×(2)² - 2³
g(2) = 125 - 150 + 60 - 8
= -25 + 60 - 8
= 35 - 8 = 27
Or directly putting the value x = 2 in g(x) we get
g(2) = (5 - 2)³ = 3³ = 27
Therefore g(2) = 27 is the answer.
The choices are in the slope-intecept form: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Looking at the graph, the y-intercept is the point at which it intersects the y-axis. That would be -1. So, the answer is either the 1st or 2nd choice. Next, we find the slope. Take 2 points that lie along the line. For example, points (1,2) and (2,5). Calculate for the slope.
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (5-2)/(2-1)
m = 3
Hence, the graph is y = 3x - 1
