A small publishing company is planning to publish a new book. The production costs will include one-time fixed costs (such as ed

iting) and variable costs (such as printing). The one-time fixed costs will total $53,533. The variable costs will be $12.50 per book. The publisher will sell the finished product to bookstores at a price of $24.25 per book. How many books must the publisher produce and sell so that the production costs will equal the money from sales?

Answer:

  4,556

Step-by-step explanation:

Revenue from the sale of n books is ...

  R = 24.25n

Production cost for n books is ...

  C = 53533 +12.50n

These are equal for ...

  24.25n = 53533 +12.50n

  11.75n = 53533

  n = 53533/11.75 = 4556

The publisher must produce 4556 books so sales will equal production cost.

What is the "k" value of the following function? Is it 3, -2, -3, or 2?
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

we khow that the vertex form of a function is written this way :

f(x)=a(x-h)²+k

  • the coordinates of the vertex are (h,k) so from the graph we can deduce that k = -3

What are the solutions to the equation x - 7/x = 6
bearhunter [10]

The answer is C that is X=7 and X=-1

multiple x through the given equation to get rid of a fraction. It will be

{x}^{2}  - 7 = 6x

After that bring 6X to the LHS of the equation

so that it will look like the general equation that is

{x}^{2}  - 6x - 7 = 0

Use the quadratic formula (or any other approach to find the values of x

You will arrive at

x = 7. - 1

The measures of the three angles of a triangle are given by 1. 3x +1 2. 2x -3, and 9x. What is the measure of the smallest angle
nordsb [41]
Since the total measure of all the angles of a triangle is always 180, solve for x with the equation: 3x+1+2x-3+9x=180. x=13. Now plug in x and look for the smallest one, which will be B. 23 degrees.

Elimination method<br> 4x-2y=48<br> 2x+6y=-18
yulyashka [42]
4x-2y=48\\ \\ 2x+6y=-18

First we'll multiply the second equation by -2


-2\cdot (2x+6y)=-2\cdot -18\\ \\ -4x-12y=36

Now let's add the new equation and the first one.

(4x-2y)+(-4x-12y)=48+36\\ \\ 4x-4x-2y-12y=48+36\\ \\ -14y=84\\ \\ y=\frac { 84 }{ -14 } \\ \\ y=-6

We found y's value. We'll plug it in one of the equations to find x's value.

y=-6\\ \\ 4x-2y=48\\ \\ 4x-2\cdot -6=48\\ \\ 4x+12=48\\ \\ 4x=48-12\\ \\ 4x=36\\ \\ x=\frac { 36 }{ 4 } \\ \\ x=9

Solution ;

(9, -6)
