In efforts of improving their orofit margins, a company is considering creating their own manufacturing plant for their product.

It had a start-up cost of 25,000 to build the plant. This plant will drop the production cost down to $15 per item. If each item sells for $50, then how many items would it take to get an overall profit of $100,000 for the year?

Answer:

To get an overall profit of $100,000, then 3,571 items is needed to be produced

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically;

Profit = Revenue - Production cost

In the question, we are told that the profit we are expecting is $100,000

Let the number of items to be produced for sales be x items

Now let’s look at the production cost ;

The production cost will be number of items for sale * production cost = 15 * x = $15x

Now, we need to add the start-up cost to the production cost to get the total amount spent on production;

Mathematically the total amount would be = $25,000 + $15x

Let’s look at the revenue;

The revenue will be selling price of each item * price of each item;

Mathematically, that would be 50 * x = $50x

So therefore;

50x - (25,000 + 15x) = 100,000

50x -25,000 -15x = 100,000

35x = 100,000 + 25,000

35x = 125,000

x = 125,000/35 = 3571.42 which is approximately 3,571 items

Write the linear equation that gives the rule for this table.
Maksim231197 [3]

to get the equation of any straight line all we need is two points, well, let's just grab them from the table.

hmmm let's use (-49 , -39) and hmmm say (67 , 77)

(\stackrel{x_1}{-49}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-39})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{67}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{77}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{77}-\stackrel{y1}{(-39)}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{67}-\underset{x_1}{(-49)}}}\implies \cfrac{77+39}{67+49}\implies \cfrac{116}{116}\implies 1

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-39)}=\stackrel{m}{1}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-49)}) \\\\\\ y+39=1(x+49)\implies y+39=x+49\implies y=x+10
