A company manufactures a certain item and sells it online. The company has a business model where the cost C, in dollars, to mak

e x items is given by the equation C=2.5x+21 and the revenue R, in dollars, made by selling x items is given by the equation R=6x. The break even point is the point where the cost and the revenue intersect. How many items must the company sell to break even?

Answer:

see the attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

The break-even point is on both curves. The y-intercept can be used for the other point in each case.

The break-even point is where cost and revenue are the same:

 20/3x +50 = 10x

 50 = 10/3x . . . . . . . . subtract 20/3x

 15 = x . . . . . multiply by 3/10

 r = c = 10(15) = 150 . . . . for x = 10

Two points you can use for graphing the lines are ...

 cost: (0, 50) and (15, 150)

 revenue: (0, 0) and (15, 150)

Answer:

  6

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost and revenue are equal when ...

  C = R

  2.5x +21 = 6x

  21 = 3.5x . . . . . . subtract 2.5x

  6 = x . . . . . . . . . .divide by 3.5

The company must sell 6 items to break even.

Suppose the half-life of a material is 10 days. You have one 1 kg of the material today. How much of the material would you have
boyakko [2]

Answer:

0.50 kg of the material would be left after 10 days.

0.25 kg of the material would be left after 20 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the half-life of a material is 10 days. You have one 1 kg of the material today. We are asked to find the amount of material left after  10 days and 20 days, respectively.

We will use half life formula.

A=a\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{h}}, where,

A = Amount left after t units of time,

a = Initial amount,

t = Time,

h = Half-life.

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{10}{10}}

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^{1}

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot\frac{1}{2}

A=0.5\text{ kg}

Therefore, amount of the material left after 10 days would be 0.5 kg.

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{20}{10}}

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot(\frac{1}{2})^{2}

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot\frac{1^2}{2^2}

A=1\text{ kg}\cdot\frac{1}{4}

A=0.25\text{ kg}

Therefore, amount of the material left after 20 days would be 0.25 kg.

HELP PLS BRAINLIEST IF POSSIBBLE<br> factor each polynomial completely a^2-ab-8a+8a brainly
sineoko [7]

Answer:

a(a - b)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>given </u><u>polynomial</u>:  a²- ab - 8a + 8a

We can first simplify this answer by removing like terms,

- 8a + 8a = 0

so we have a²- ab in. the simplest form

we can take this one step further and factor out the a (not simplest form)

a time a = a²

a times b = ab

hence, a(a - b)
