<h2><u>Solutions :-</u></h2>

1. How much money will you pay to Raju for 20 kg of newspapers?

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost \: of \: 1 \: kg \: newspaper = Rs.5}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost \: of \: 20 \: kg \: newspaper = Rs.20 \times 5}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost \: of \: 20 \: kg \: newspaper = Rs.100}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\underline{\boxed{\sf{\purple{Cost \: of \: 20 \: kg \: newspaper = Rs.100}}}}}}$

<u>∴ We need to pay Rs.100 for buy 20 kg of newspapers. </u>

$\rule{200}{1.5}$

2. What is the cost of 5 kg Iron?

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost\: of \: 1 \: kg \: iron = Rs.10}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost\: of \: 5 \: kg \: iron = Rs.10 \times 5}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost \: of \: 5 \: kg \: iron = Rs.50}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow\underline{\boxed{\sf{\purple{Cost \: of \: 5 \: kg \: iron = Rs.50}}}}}$

<u>∴ The cost of 5 kg iron is Rs.50.</u>

$\rule{200}{1.5}$

3. What is the cost of 9 kg Plastic?

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost \: of \: 1 \: kg \: plastic = Rs.8}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost \: of \: 9 \: kg \: plastic = Rs.8 \times 9}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost \: of \: 9 \: kg \: plastic = Rs.72}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow\underline{\boxed{\sf{\purple{Cost\: of \: 9 \: kg \: plastic = Rs.72}}}}}$

<u>∴ The cost of 9 kg plastic is Rs.72. </u>

$\rule{200}{1.5}$

4. What is the cost of 7 kg Brass?

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost \: of \: 1 \: kg \: brass = Rs.50}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost\: of \: 7 \: kg \: brass = Rs.50 \times 7}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow{\sf{Cost \: of \: 7 \: kg \: brass = Rs.350}}}$

$\quad{\longrightarrow\underline{\boxed{\sf{\purple{Cost \: of \: 5 \: kg \: brass = Rs.350}}}}}$

<u>∴ The cost of 7kg brass is Rs.350.</u>

A Best Eastern Motel is a regional motel chain. Its rooms rent for $90 per night, on average. The variable cost is $40 a room pe

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer: break even point (y) = 24000

Step-by-step explanation:

This is quite simple to solve,

We will take a step by step calculation.

let us begin;

Given that the Room rent per night is = $90

Also the variable cost per night = $40

Total fixed cost = $1200,000

Now we are asked to solve for the Break even point;

Remember that at break even point, the Revenue = cost

Say the required revenue from renting y rooms R = $90y

The cost of renting y rooms = C = $ (40y + 1200,000)

therefore from this we have the Break even point as

$90y = $ (40y + 1200,000)

where y = 24000

cheers i hope this helps!!!!!!
