The Answer: (-b + 15) (15 - b)
Answer: it will take 40 rides to break even.
Step-by-step explanation:
Profit = Revenue - total cost
At the point of break even, there is no profit. It means that
revenue = total cost
The cost c (in dollars) for the fuel and maintenance of a go-cart is given by
c = 10x + 1200
where x is the number of rides. It costs $40 per ride. This means that the revenue gotten from x rides is 40x.
In order to break even, it means that
40x = 10x + 1200
40x - 10x = 1200
30x = 1200
x = 1200/30
x = 40
Answer:
20/24
Step-by-step explanation:
let the variable be x and x-4
5/6 = x-4/x
cross multiply
5x = 6x - 24
24= x
thus, x is 24 and x-4 is 20
<u>20/24</u>
To solve this equation, start by noticing that you want to find t when P is 75%, or 0.75. Plug in 0.75 for P. Please see the attached screenshot for a step-by-step. The correct answer is 29.496 days.
EDIT 2: I actually was correct! You check the answer by substituting 29.496 for t in the original equation set equal to 0.75. It is 0.75. I had forgotten the negative sign when I checked.
Answer:
m < 16
Step-by-step explanation:
598 + 15.75m < 850
15.75m < 850 - 598
15.75m < 252
m < 16
