We solve the inequality by subtracting 56.50 from both sides of the equation,
10.45b + 56.50 - 56.50 < 292.67 - 56.50
10.45b < 236.17
Then, divide both sides of the inequality by 10.45
b < 22.6
The solution suggests that the number of boxes than can be loaded on a truck without exceeding the weight limit of the truck should always be lesser than 22.6. Since we are talking about number of boxes, the maximum number of boxes that can be loaded should only be 22.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of units of games sold.
The inventor of a new game believes that the variable cost for producing the game is $0.90 per unit and the fixed costs are $6200. It means that the total variable cost for x units would be
0.9 × x = 0.9x
The inventor sells each game for $1.69. This means that the total revenue from x units of games sold would be
1.69 × x = 1.69x
The total cost for a business is the sum of the variable cost and the fixed costs. Therefore, the total cost for the number of games sold would be
C = 6200 + 0.9x
Profit = Revenue - total cost
Therefore,
Profit = 1.69x - (6200 + 0.9x)
= 1.69x - 0.9x - 6200
= 0.79x - 6200
