Given
base=2x+6
height=x+4
and
area=56 square units
56=1/2 times (2x+6) times (x+4)
times bot sides by 2
112=(2x+6)(x+4)
expand
112=2x²+14x+24
divide both sides by 2
56=x²+7x+12
minus 56 both sides
0=x²+7x-44
factor
waht 2 numbers mulitply to get -44 and add to get 7
11 and -4
0=(x-4)(x+11)
set to 0
x-4=0
x=4
x+11=0
x=-11
false, measures can't be negative
x=4
height=x+4
height=4+4=8
base=2x+6
base=2(4)+6=8+6=14
x=4 and base=14 and height=8
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
Because when 18-5=13 x 2=26
Here is my answer. Let just give assumptions. For example,the relationship is linear.Therefore the slope, "m," is the same throughout.
Let us make patrons the independent variable, the two points are: (1314, 11333) and (1544, 13518).
m = (13518-11333)/(1544-1314)
m = 9.5
profit = 9.5 patrons (you pick the variable names)
For 1 more patron substitute 1:
profit = 9.5 (1)
profit = 9.5
Isolate "patrons" and you get the function based on profit:
patrons = profit/9.5
The break even point is for 0 < profit.
0 < profit = 9.5 patrons
0 < 9.5 patrons
0 < patron
