Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Breakeven point is the point of balance where their is neither a loss or a profit. At the breakeven point, the revenue gotten from the sell of goods is equal to the cost of production of the goods, hence the profit is zero.

Given the profit function:

P=-2b² + 14b - 20

At breakeven P = 0, hence:

0 = -2b² + 14b - 20

-2b² + 14b - 20 = 0

-2b² + 10b + 4b - 20 = 0

-2b (b - 5) + 4(b - 5) = 0

(b - 5)(-2b + 4) = 0

b - 5 = 0; or -2b + 4 = 0

b = 5; or b = 2

Since b is in thousands, hence the company breaks even when the number of skateboards produced is either 2000 or 5000

Tom planted 1/2 of an 8-ft by 9-ft garden with vegetables. He planted tomatoes in 1/3 of the vegetable garden and corn in the re
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Corn was planted in 24 sq.ft. of the vegetable garden.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of garden = 9 ft

width of garden = 8 ft

Hence we will first find the total area of garden.

Total area of garden = length × width = 8 \times 9 = 72ft^2

He planted 1/2 of the garden with vegetables.

Hence.

Area of Vegetables garden = \frac{1}{2}\times \textrm{Total Area of Garden} = \frac{1}{2}\times 72 = 36ft^2

He planted tomatoes in 1/3 of the vegetable garden and corn in the rest

Area in which tomatoes was planted = \frac{1}{3}\times \textrm{Area of Vegetables Garden} = \frac{1}{3}\times 36 = 12ft^2

Hence Area in which corn were planted = Area of Vegetables garden - Area in which tomatoes was planted = 36ft^2-12ft^2=24ft^2

Hence Area of vegetable garden in which corn was planted is 24 sq.ft.
