Answer:

break even point = 8000 socks produced or $36000 in costs

Step-by-step explanation:

the cost function of the firm is

total cost = fixed cost + variable cost = $20000 + $2*Q

where Q= number of socks

the revenue from sales is

sales = Price* Q = $4.50*Q

the break even point is reached when the net profit is = 0 ( that is, the total cost is equal to the revenue from sales) , then

total cost = sales

$20000 + $2*Q =$4.50*Q

Q= $20000/($4.50-$2) = 8000 socks

that represents

total cost = $20000 + $2*8000  = $36000

then

break even point = 8000 socks produced or $36000 in costs

Evaluate the limit of ((1/4 + 1/x)/(4+x)) as x -> -4​
photoshop1234 [79]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

-1/16

Discussion:

Rewrite   ((1/4 + 1/x)/(4+x))  as

(1/4 + 1/x)  *  (1/(4+x)) =                 => put num. over common denom,

( (x+4)/4x) *  (1/(4+x)) =                 => cancel (x+4) from num. and denom.

(1/4x)

So as x ->-4, (1/4x) approaches ( 1/ ( 4 * (-4) )   ) = -1/16

Thank you,

MrB

Can you help me with this question?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

  16.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle internal to the triangle at B is the supplement of the one shown, so is 65°. That is equal to the angle internal to the triangle at D. Since the vertical angles at C are congruent, the two triangles are similar by the AA theorem.

Corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional, so we can write the proportion shown in the attachment:

  BC/FC = DC/AC

  BC = FC(DC/AC) = 21.6(7.2/9.6)

  BC = 16.2 . . . . matches the first choice
