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

Predict how many times you will roll a number less than 3 if you roll a standard number
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

about 117 times

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of possible outcomes of a cube: 6

2 out the 6 possible outcomes are less than 3,

and therefore, No. of favorable outcome: 2

P(less than 3)= No. of favorable outcome / No. of possible outcomes

                     =2/6 => 1/3

if you roll a standard number  cube 350 times then,

Prediction= number of rolls x (P(less than 3))

                =350 x 1/3

                ≈117 times.

At bjs you can buy 6 cans for $4.99 or 10 cans for 7.99. Which pack is a better buy?
WINSTONCH [101]

For this, you have to calculate the Unit value,

Unit value of 1rst one,  4.99/6 = 0.83

Unit value of 2nd one, 7.99/10 = 0.79

As, 2nd one is cheaper, so it is better :))

The mean distance of the Moon from Earth is 2.39x10^5 miles. Assuming that the orbit of the Moon around Earth is circular and th
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

2291,94 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we need to consider the distance 2.39x10^5 miles as the distance between the center of the earth and the center of the moon, if not we would need to know the radius of the earth and the moon.

If the distance is 2.39x10^5 miles, the orbit is = 2.Pi.(2.39x10^5) miles=1501681.288miles

It takes 27.3 days, that are, 27.3*24= 655.2hours

1501681.288miles/655.2hours= 2291.94 mph

G es to prove that if a, b, and c are integers, where a ≠ 0 and c ≠ 0, such that ac | bc, then a |
Alex Ar [27]
ac\mid bc means there exists an integer n such that ac=bcn. We can divide both sides by c because c\neq0. This implies a=bn for some integer, which is identically a\mid b.
