Answer: 100 rides are needed to break even.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given the cost function
C(x)=15x+2000 where x is the number of rides.
And rides cost 35$
⇒ revenue function would be 35 times x
i.e.R(x)=35 x , where x is the number of rides.
Break even point of a firm occurs when at a certain point x the total cost equals to the total revenue.
i.e. at break even point
total revenue=total cost
⇒35x=15x+2000
⇒35-15x=2000[subtract 15x from both sides]
⇒20x=2000 [simplify]
⇒x=2000/20[dividing both sides with 20]
⇒x=100
∴ 100 rides are needed to break even.

Answer:
- 100 mL of 75% solution
- 150 mL of pure alcohol
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the quantity (in mL) of pure alcohol needed for the mix. Then the amount of 75% needed is (250-x). The amount of alcohol in the mixture is ...
1.00x +0.75(250 -x) = 0.90(250)
0.25x +187.5 = 225 . . simplify
0.25x = 37.5 . . . . . . . . subtract 187.5
x = 150 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.25
(250 -x) = 100 . . . . mL of 75% solution
You need 100 mL of the 75% solution and 150 mL of pure alcohol to obtain the desired mixture.
