<u>Information:</u>
Fixed Cost = $32,634
Variable Cost = $8.75 per book.
Selling Price = $24.50 per book.
<u>Define x:</u>
Let x be the number of books sold.
<u>Construct Equation:</u>
For production cost to be equal auto money from sales:
⇒ 24.5x = 32634 + 8.75x
<u>Solve x:
</u>
24.5x = 32634 + 8.75x
Take away 8.75x from both sides:
15.75x = 32634
Divide both sides by 15.75:
x = 2072
Answer: The publisher must sell 2072 books.
Hi there!
To create an expression that uses the distribution property which can be simplified into 40 + 4x, we can find a factor between 40 and 4:
Since both 40 and 4 is divisible by 4,
40 / 4 = 10
4 / 4 = 1
We can put the 4 on the outside of the parenthesis, and put the quotients inside the parenthesis. And since the expression is in addition, we should include the addition symbol as the operation inside the parenthesis.
4(10 + x)
would be your answer.
Hope this helps!
