Answer: The break even point is when they have sold 16 books and have made $288
Step-by-step explanation: The costs are modeled in the equation y = 12x + 96. x is the number of books sold.
The earnings are modeled by he equation y = 18x.
Substitute 18x for y and solve for x.
18x = 12x + 96 Subtract 12x from both sides.
6x = 96 Divide both sides by 6
x = 16
Substitute into the original equations to solve for y
y = 12(16) + 96
y = 192 + 96
Y = 288
y = 18(16)
y = 288

Step-by-step explanation:
4
- 6 = 394
4 = 400
= 100
x = 10
Answer:
x=2
x=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to get everything on one side to have a quadratic equation:
x^2+6x-4 -(3x+6) = x^2+3x-10
All factors of 10 are 1*10 and 2*5.
5-2 = 3 and 5*-2 = -10
Factoring x^2+3x-10 gives us (x-2)(x+5)
x=2
x=-5
Get the x variable on one side and the numbers another side.
9/10(x + 2/3) = 4 1/2
Distribute the 9/10 across the x and 2/3.
(9/10)x + 18/30 = 4 1/2
Simplify 18/30 to make our life easier.
(9/10)x + 3/5 = 4 1/2
Subtract 3/5 from each side of the equation.
(9/10)x = 3 9/10
Divide both sides by 9/10.
x = 4 1/3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. To find the line, convert the slope of q and substitute it with (6, -5) into point slope form.
y = 3x + 5 is q. It has a slope of 3. So p will have a slope of -1/3.
