A company that teaches self-improvement seminars is holding one of its seminars in Middletown. The company pays a flat fee of $1

17 to rent a facility in which to hold each session. Additionally, for every attendee who registers, the company must spend $14 to purchase books and supplies. Each attendee will pay $15 for the seminar. Once a certain number of attendee register, the company will be breaking even. How many attendees will that take? What will be the company's total expenses and revenues?

Answers:

To reach the breakeven point, how many attendees will that take?  <u>   117   </u>

What will be the company's total expenses and revenues?  <u>    $1755  for each   </u>

=============================================================

Explanation:

x = number of attendees

C(x) = cost function for the company

C(x) = 14x+117

This is because the company pays $14 per person, so x of them accounts for 14x dollars. Then we add on the flat fee of $117 to get 14x+117 dollars overall.

In contrast, the revenue is

R(x) = 15x

because each attendee brings in $15 for the company

The breakeven point is when the cost and revenue are the same. This produces a profit of $0.

R(x) = C(x)

15x = 14x+117

15x-14x = 117

x = 117

If 117 people attend the seminar, then the company breaks even.

To check this, we'll compute the cost and revenue

C(x) = 14x+117

C(117) = 14*117+117

C(117) = 1755

R(x) = 15x

R(117) = 15*117

R(117) =  1755

The cost and revenue is $1755 for each. Because we get the same value, this confirms the correct x value.

Since 117 people is the breakeven point, the company should aim for an attendee count above this, so they can get a positive profit. At some point, there is a max capacity so x can't go up forever.

Two times the smaller of two consecutive integers is equal to 2 more than the larger. What is the LARGER integer?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The larger integer is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Two times the smaller of two consecutive integers is equal to 2 more than the larger.

To find: The larger integer.

Solution:

Let the two consecutive integers be x and x+1,  where the smaller integer is x and larger integer is x+1.

Now, according to question.

Two times the smaller integer = 2 more than the larger integer.

\implies 2x=x+1+2

\implies 2x-x=3

\implies x=3

So, the smaller integer is 3, and the larger integer is 3+1=4.

Hence, the larger integer is 4.

What is the perimeter of a regular pentagon with a
choli [55]

Answer:the perimeter of the regular pentagon is 5x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a plane figure is the distance around the plane figure. The pentagon is a plane figure. It has 5 sides. Since it is a regular Pentagon, it means that all the sides are equal.

From the information given, the length of each side of the regular Pentagon is x + 4

The perimeter of the regular Pentagon would be 5 times the length of each side. It becomes

5(x + 4) = 5x + 20
