Answer:
500 boxes
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>hey there,</em>
<em />
< Since "p" stands for profits, change "p" to 0 (since the question says 0 profits).
Here is how your equation would look like:
Pretend like "n" is "x" since that is the variable we are trying to find here.
Solve for "n". Move all terms to the left side and set equal to zero. Then set each factor equal to zero.
"n" actually ends up equaling 500, -200.
Obviously, negative can't be the answer because you can't have a negative amount of boxes. So 500 boxes would be your answer. 200 CAN'T be your answer <em>either </em>because it is a negative!! >

Answer:
(i) see first attached diagram
(ii) QR = 22.67 km (2 dp)
(iii) 243°
Step-by-step explanation:
A bearing is the angle in degrees measured clockwise from north.
<u />
<u>Part (i)</u>
see first attached diagram
<u>Part (ii)</u>
The angles marked in blue on the second attached diagram are Consecutive Interior Angles. In this case they add to 180° as the North lines are parallel.
The sum of angles around a point is 360°
⇒ m∠QPR (shown in red on the second attached diagram) = 360 - 150 - (180 - 15) = 45°
To calculate the distance between Q and R (marked in red on the attached diagram), use the cosine rule.
⇒ QR² = PR² + QP² - 2(PR)(QP)cos(QPR)
⇒ QR² = 32² + 24² - 2(32)(24)cos(45)
⇒ QR² = 513.8839841...
⇒ QR = √513.8839841...
⇒ QR = 22.67 km (2 dp)
<u>Part (iii)</u>
We need to find the angle marked in green on the third attached diagram.
To do this, we need to find the angle marked in pink and the angle marked in orange, then subtract them from 360°
Pink angle = 180 - 150 = 30° (using the same consecutive angle theorem as before)
Orange angle (o) using the sine rule:
⇒ sin(o)/32 = sin(45)/QR
⇒ sin(o) = 32sin(45)/22.67
⇒ sin(o) = 0.9981652337...
⇒ o = 86.52868176...°
Therefore, the green angle = 360 - 30 - 86.52868176... = 243° (nearest degree)
