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

Can someone solve this for me?
Helga [31]

well, we know it's a rectangle, so that means the sides JK = IL and JI = KL, so

\stackrel{JK}{3x+21}~~ = ~~\stackrel{IL}{6y}\implies 3(x+7)=6y\implies x+7=\cfrac{6y}{3} \\\\\\ x+7=2y\implies \boxed{x=2y-7} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{JI}{6y-6}~~ = ~~\stackrel{KL}{2x+20}\implies 6(y-1)=2(x+10)\implies \cfrac{6(y-1)}{2}=x+10 \\\\\\ 3(y-1)=x+10\implies 3y-3=x+10\implies \stackrel{\textit{substituting from the 1st equation}}{3y-3=(2y-7)+10} \\\\\\ 3y-3=2y+3\implies y-3=3\implies \blacksquare~~ y=6 ~~\blacksquare ~\hfill \blacksquare~~ \stackrel{2(6)~~ - ~~7}{x=5} ~~\blacksquare

Select the quadrant in which the terminal side of the angle falls.
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Select the quadrant in which the terminal side of the angle falls.

210° terminates in quadrant

-150° terminates in quadrant

390° terminates in quadrant

Solution:

The x and y axis divides the cartesian plane into four equal parts known as the four quadrants.

Angles between 0° and 90° are in the first quadrant, angles between 90° and 180° are in the second quadrant, angles between 180° and 270° are in the third quadrant while angles between 270° and 360° are in the fourth quadrant.

a) Since 210 degrees is between 180° and 270°, hence it terminates in the third quadrant.

b) -150° = 360 - 150 = 210°. Since 210 degrees is between 180° and 270°, hence it terminates in the third quadrant.

c) 390° = 390° - 360° = 30°.

Since 30 degrees is between 0° and 90°, hence it terminates in the first quadrant.
