To answer the problem above, we must first define the word break even. Break even means there is no gain or loss, the difference between the capital amount and the sale amount is zero. In equation, let x be the number of pies. 5x + 30 = 12x, $5 times the number of pies plus $30 is equal to $12 times the number of pies sold. The answer is letter C.
Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.
−12x−0.4>0.2(36.5x+80)−55
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.
−12x−0.4>7.3x−39
Step 2: Subtract 7.3x from both sides.
−12x−0.4−7.3x>7.3x−39−7.3x
−19.3x−0.4>−39
Step 3: Add 0.4 to both sides.
−19.3x−0.4+0.4>−39+0.4
−19.3x>−38.6
Step 4: Divide both sides by -19.3.
−19.3x
−19.3
>
−38.6
−19.3
x<2
Answer:
x<2
6x - 4y = 8...solve for x
6x = 4y + 8
x = (4/6)y + 8/6
x = 2/3y + 4/3 <==
The range is the set of values for y. Since y=|x|, y is always positive and increases without bound as x approaches +oo. Thus the range is:
y≥0 which can also be expressed as y=[0, +oo)
