"Break even" occurs when Revenue = Costs.

So, solve this equation:  

                                       ($12/bottle)x = $15225 + ($3.25)x

Consolidating the x terms:  $8.75x = $15225
                                                            $15225
Solving for x:                                x = ------------- = 1740 bottles
                                                                $8.75

Her business will break even when she has sold 1740 bottles of her lotion.

The price of a skateboard, which normally sells for $50,, was decreased by 10% then decreased again by 10%, then increased by 10
AveGali [126]

Answer:

The price dropped by $5.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

    Initial price = $50.00

      Less 10 % =   -5.00

 1st sale price =   45.00

       Less 10% =    -4.50

2nd sale price =   40.50

      Plus 10 % =   +4.05

     Final price = $44.55

Change in price =   final   -  initial

                          =   44.55 - 50.00

                          = -$5.45

The price dropped by $5.45.

Help me please with this question please .
miss Akunina [59]
If we split this shape into 2 rectangles, we have 2 rectangles that each measure 10m x 20m x 200cm.  200 cm = 2 m.  Volume is found by multiplying length times width times height.  We have 2 shapes so we will have 2 volumes that we will add together to get a total volume.  10*20*2=400 m cubed.  Two of those is 800 m cubed.
