Answer:
<em>The company needs to sell 40 desks to break even</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Application of Equations</u>
There is virtually no limit to the possible situations where equations can help to find the solution of specific problems related to areas like economy, where one could need to establish some important indicators about the business.
B. The fixed cost for Abstract Office Supplies to sell a new computer desk is $14,000. Each desk will cost $150 to produce. The cost function to produce X desks is
C(x)=150x+14,000
A. The revenue for each desk is estimated at $500, for X desks will be
R(x)=500x
C. The company will break even when the cost and the revenue are the same. We'll find how many desks need to be sold for that to happen. We equate
C(x)=R(x)
Or equivalently
150x+14,000=500x
Rearranging
500x-150x=14,000
350x=14,000
Solving for x
x=14,000/350= 40
The company needs to sell 40 desks to break even
To find y you need to insert x into the equation. The equation is y=2x+2, so insert the x on the table to find the y.
y=2(-4)+2=-6
y=2(-2)+2=-2
y=2(0)+2=2
y=2(1)+2=4
y=2(3)+2=8
These follow the equation's rule so it is correct.
Two plot the values of x and y you need to put it in (x,y) then plot it. Then you can check it by using the equation, y=mx+b, the b is the y intercept, so check to see if it starts there, and then check and see if it followings the slope
(-4, -6), (-2, -2), (0, 2), (1, 4), (3, 8)
Hope this helps, now you know the answer and how to do it. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great rest of Black History Month! :-)
