Let X be the number of energy drinks sold.
The manufacturer of an energy drink spends $1.20 to make each drink and sells them for two dollars the manufacturer also has fixed cost each month of $8000.
The manufacturing cost for X energy drinks is
Fixed cost is $8000.
Therefore, cost function is
Selling price of each drink is $2.
Therefore, the revenue function is
Hence, the revenue function is
Answer: The ramp would be 15.5 feet long.
Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram for details.
Angle C shows the angle to be formed by the ramp from the ground, which is 15 degrees. Also, from the ground, it’s going to be four feet tall, which is line AB. The top of the ramp is point A, which makes line AC the entire length of the ramp. Since we have a reference angle (angle C) and two sides, the opposite and the hypotenuse, we shall apply the trigonometric ratio.
SinC = opposite/hypotenuse
Sin 15 = 4/b
By cross multiplication we now have
b = 4/Sin15
b = 4/0.2588
b = 15.4599
Approximately b = 15.5
Therefore the length of the ramp would be 15.5 feet
