Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so basically let's start with a proportion.

x/32 = 11.25/9

Cross multiply:

x * 9 = 32 * 11.25

9x = 32 * 11.25

9x = 360

Solving for variable 'x'.

Divide each side by '9'.

x = 40

I don't know if this is the correct answer, but it was based on my math. I hope this helps!

The figure shows the graphs of the cost and revenue functions for a company that manufactures and sells small radios. More than
Lyrx [107]
ANSWER

The company must produce and sell more than 700 radios to have a profit.

EXPLANATION

The revenue function is

R(x)=40x
and the cost function is

C(x)=5,600+32x


The company will break even when total revenue is equal to the total cost.


This implies that,


40x =5,600+32x

We group similar terms to get,


40x - 32x = 5600

This simplifies to,

8x = 5600

Divide both sides by 8 to get,


x =  \frac{5600}{8}


x = 700


The company breaks even by producing and selling 700 radios.

The company must produce and sell more than 700 radios to have a profit.
