Answer:

362

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of costs for printing 500 books is ...

$250 +500($3) = $1750

The profit is the difference between revenue and cost.

revenue -cost = profit

9b -1750 > 1500

9b > 3250

b > 3250/9 =361 1/9

The number of books they need to sell is at least 362.

<em>Additional comment</em>

If the books could be printed one at a time, then the 9-3 = $6 contribution margin of each book would require sale of 250/6 = 41 2/3 books to cover the printer setup charge and 1500/6 = 250 books to achieve the desired profit, for a total of 292 books. However, the books were printed in a batch of 500, so the cost of printing those extra books must also be covered. That is why we need to sell 362 books for a profit of at least $1500.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x⁴ - 5x² + 2x - 3

When x = -1,

f(-1) = 3(-1)⁴ - 5(-1)² + 2(-1) - 3 = 3 - 5 - 2 - 3 = -7.

Moira said, "If a right triangle has one side with a length of 3 units and one side with a length

Dima020 [189]

If the two sides with length 3 and 4 are the two legs, then the missing side, i.e. the hypotenuse, is indeed 5.

But it could also be the case that 4 is the hypotenuse and 3 is one of the legs. In this case, the missing side is the other leg, so we calculate it using

$\sqrt{4^2-3^2}=\sqrt{16-9}=\sqrt{7}$

So, a right triangle with legs $\sqrt{7}$ and 3 has an hypotenuse of 4.

Total number of bears = 204

There are 204 teddy bears in the shipment.
