Answer:

a) Profit = 84000

b) at break even number of pens sold = 46

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

Total revenue generated = 99 * 1000

Total revenue generated = 99000

Total cost on making the pen = 11 * 1000

Total cost on making the pen = 11000

Total cost including the initial cost = 11000 + 4000

Total cost including the initial cost = 15000

Profit = 99000 - 15000

Profit = 84000

Break even is when the cost are equal to Revenue thus no profit or loss

Revenue = total cost (break even)

9x = 1x + 4000

9x - x = 4000

8x = 4000

x = 500

At breakeven Revenue = 9 * 500

At breakeven Revenue = 4500

since one pen is sold at 99 therefore at break even number of pens sold = 4500/99 = 45.45( to 2 decimal place)

at break even number of pens sold = 46

Two families visited an amusement park. The first family bought 2 hot dogs and 3 bottles of waters, which totaled $18. The secon

Ghella [55]

Answer:

$6.00

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we have to construct two separate equations for each family, and then use any of the methods for solving simultaneous equations.

Let's consider h to represent the cost of 1 hot dog, and w to mean the cost of 1 water bottle.

• For the first family:

$2h + 3w = 18$

We can rearrange the equation to make w the subject:

⇒ $3w = 18 - 2h$

⇒ $w = \frac{18 - 2h}{3}$

• For the second family:

$4h + 2w = 28$

Since we have previously obtained an expression for w in terms of h, we can substitute that expression for w in the above equation, and then solve for h:

⇒ $4h + 2(\frac{18 - 2h}{3}) = 28$

⇒ $4h + \frac{36 - 4h}{3} = 28$

⇒ $12h + 36 - 4h = 84$ [Multiplying both sides of the equation by 3]

⇒ $8h + 36 = 84$

⇒ $8h = 48$

⇒ $h = \bf 6$

∴ The price of one hot dog is $6.00.

If the vertex of an angle is on the edge of a circle

NikAS [45]

Answer:

When we say an angle is on a circle, we mean the vertex is on the edge of the circle. One type of angle on a circle is the inscribed angle (see Inscribed Angles in Circles). Another type of angle on a circle is one formed by a tangent and a chord.
