Answer:
a) (11/7, 9/7)
b) There's no point of intersection
Step-by-step explanation:
a) x - 2y + 1 = 0
2x + 3y - 7 = 0
To find the point of intersection, we need to solve the system of equations and the result will be the point of intersection (x,y)
Now we substitute x in the second equation:
Now we substitute y in our first equation.
.
The point of intersection is (11/7, 9/7)
b) x -2y +11 =0
-x + 2y - 13 =0
We are going to follow the same procedure:
Since this system of equations doesn't have a solution, the system has no point of intersection.
Answer:
m = —1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two clear points shown on the graph
point 1: (0;3)
point 2: (6;1)
The area is 120/(1/4) or 120 x 4 or 480 square inches
the width is 6/(1/2) or 6 x 2 or 12 inches
to find the length, divide the area by the width
480/12= 40
40 inches
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
6,000 toothpicks
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are trying to evaluate the number of toothpicks a company must sell to ensure that the money spent on production is exactly equal to revenue from sales.
What we do is this!
Let’s assign a variable to represent the number of tooth picks sold and produced by the company. Let us call this number x.
First, we evaluate the total amount spent on production of x toothpicks. From the question, we can see that the cost of producing a single toothpick is $0.01, hence, to produce x toothpicks, amount spent asides the fixed cost is $0.01 * x = $0.01x
Now, the total cost on production which includes the fixed cost of the company would be $(0.01x + 60). This is the total amount spent to produce the goods.
Now revenue from sales for x toothpicks at $0.02 each is $0.02x
Since we are looking to Breakeven, we equate the costs to the revenue.
0.01x + 60 = 0.02x
0.02x-0.01x = 60
0.01x = 60
x = 60/0.01 = 6,000 toothpicks
