Answer:
Kelsey must produce 34 more pendants.
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs= $200
Unitary variable cost= $7.8
Selling price per unit= $13.5
Desired profit= $50
<u>To determine the number of units to be sold, we need to use the break-even point in units formula.</u>
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (200 + 50) / (13.5 - 7.8)
Break-even point in units= 250/5.7
Break-even point in units= 43.86 = 44
Kelsey must produce 34 more pendants.
Answer:
It goes up $9 per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
First you get "y" by itself. To do so you divide 2 on both sides.
y = 3/2x + 5
To write an equation of a line that is PARALLEL to this equation, the slopes have to be the SAME. So the slope is 3/2.
You then use the equation:
y = mx + b
SInce you know "m" you plug it in.
y = 3/2x + b
Now you need to find b. To do so you plug in the point (2, -5) into this equation.
-5 = 3/2(2) + b
-5 = 3 + b
-8 = b
Finally you plug in b and you get your new equation.
y = 3/2x - 8
We can use the distributive property to set up an expression that is equal to this problem.
14 times 8 is 112
14 times -6 is -84x
14 times 12 is 168
(If you don't know the distributive property ask and I can explain it)
We can combine that together to get:
112 +168 -84x
Or, condense it further:
280-84x is equivalent to 14(8-6x+12)
The answer is D: rectangle
