Fixed costs:
$350 + $120 + $170 = $640
Variable costs:
x * ( $6.50 + $3.64 ) = x * 10.14
Sales income ( total ):
x * $36.40
FC + FV - Income = 0
640 + 10.14 x - 36.40 x = 0
640 - 26.26 x = 0
26.26 x = 640
x = 640 : 26.26 = 24.37

When you see this kind of question use « BODMAS »
1.Add the 2 digits which is 3+7=10
2.Add the digits inside which is 0.7+1.3=2
3.Add the inside and outside
3+7(0.7+1.3)
10(2)=20
Factors of 84: 1, 2<span>, </span>3<span>, 4, 6, </span>7<span>, 12, </span>14<span>, </span>21<span>, </span>28<span>, </span>42<span>, 84. Prime factorization: 84 = </span>2<span> x </span>2<span> x </span>3<span>x </span>7<span> which can also be written (</span>2^2<span>) x </span>3<span> x </span>7<span>.</span>
