Answer:

A) $102,400

Step-by-step explanation:

For these answers, we must assume the increase is linear.

The two-point form of the equation for a line is ...

y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

Filling in the given (x, y) values of (3, 25000) and (23, 68000), we have ...

y = (68000 -25000)/(23 -3)(x -3) +25000

y = 2150x +18,550

Then for x = 39, we find the predicted sales to be ...

y = (2150)(39) +18,550 = 102,400

The predicted sales after 39 months is $102,400.

1. Try It # 1 A company sells doughnuts. They incur a fixed cost of $25,000 for rent, insurance, and other expenses. It costs $0

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

The y-intercept is 25000 . The intercept is the fixed cost of the doughnut selling company.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, it is given that the fixed cost is $25000 and the expense to produce each doughnut is $0.25.

It is required to find and identify the y intercept.

To do so, use the equation derived in previous part of the exercise to interpret the slope. Compare the equation with standard equation of the line.

Step 1 of 1

The total cost of the company is the sum of fixed cost and the expenses for the doughnut, C=0.25x+25000.

Compare the equation with general linear equation y=mx+c.

The y-intercept is 25000 .

The intercept is the fixed cost of the doughnut selling company.

The solution for this problem is just simple. It tells you to find the area in square feet. Thus, convert the units to feet first. The conversion you need to know are: 12 in = 1 ft and 3 ft = 1 yard.

Width = 42 in * 1 ft/12 in = 3.5 ft
Length = 10 yards * 3 ft/1 yard = 30 ft

Area = Length*Width = 30*3.5
<em>Area = 105 ft²</em>

Sindi borrowed an amount of money from his father to open the Salon. The loan will be paid back by means of payments of R25 000

amm1812

The present value of the loan will be = R36,250

<h3>Calculation of the present value</h3>

The principal capital (P) = R25 000

Interest rate for the payment (R)= 7.5%

Time for the payment (T)= 6 years

Therefore simple interest = P×T×R/100

= 25,000×6×7.5/100

= 250×6×7.5

= R11,250

The present value of the loan will be;

= 25,000 + 11,250

= R36,250

find the factors of each number. Write the common factor ( CF ) and then state the greatest common factor ( GCF) .

Reptile [31]

Given:

Two numbers are 12 and 21

To find:

The factors of 12 and 21, then find the common factor and the greatest common factor.

Solution:

Two numbers are 12 and 21. The prime factors of these two numbers are

$12=2\times 2\times 3$

$21=3\times 7$

From the above factorization, it is clear that the factor 3 is common in both. So,

Common factor (CF) = 3

Only 3 is common in factorization of both. So,

Greatest common factor (GCF) = 3

Therefore, the common factor is 3 and the greatest common factor is also 3.
