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)

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.

Koalas absorb only 25% of the fiber they eat. A koala absorbed 10.5 ounces of fiber in one day. How many ounces of fiber did he
sweet [91]

\huge{\boxed{\text{42 ounces}}}

25% is equal to \frac{1}{4}, so multiplying it by 4 gets 100%.  This means we can multiply 10.5 by 4 to get 100% of the fiber the koala ate that day.

10.5*4=\boxed{42}
