Answer:

  360

Step-by-step explanation:

Sam obtains a "contribution margin" of $0.50 -0.25 = $0.25 per cookie. That will cover the cost of baking supplies when he sells ...

  $90 / ($0.25/cookie) = 360 cookies

Sam needs to sell 360 cookies before he can start making a profit.

_____

If you like, you can find Sam's break-even point by equating revenue and cost. The is the number of cookies Sam must sell for a profit of 0, that is, for non-negative profit.

  P = R - C

  0 = R - C

  R = C

  0.50n = 90 +0.25n

  0.25n = 90 . . . . subtract 0.25n

  n = 90/0.25 = 360 . . . .divide by the coefficient of n

You may notice this is similar to our description above.

Express the distance traveled as a function of the number of hours at the average speed. The morris family is traveling from pro
shusha [124]

Answer:

Dist = 45 m/h * x h

Step-by-step explanation:

We know a speed is a measure of distance over time:  speed = dist / time

In this case, we are looking for a distance expressed in terms of time.

So, we only need to modify the formula a bit: dist = speed * time

We don't know the time (which will be a variable), but we know their speed.  So, the formula becomes:

Dist = 45 m/h * x h

Enter the number of hours in the formula and that will give you an approximation of the distance traveled within that time (approximation since our result will be rely on an average).

What is the Kinetic energy of a 2000 kg bus that is moving at 30m/s? <br><br> Explain please
agasfer [191]

There's a formula for that.

KE = (1/2)mv²

... = (1/2)(2000 kg)(30 m/s)²

... = 900,000 kg·m²/s²

... = 900,000 J

_____

It is helpful to know the relationship between kilograms, meters, seconds, and Newtons or Joules.

1 J = 1 kg·m²/s²
