Answer: a) c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1, b) 13 units
Step-by-step explanation: Revenue function = R(x) = 0.21x
Profit function = p(x) = 0.086 - 1.1
Cost function = c(x) =?
A)
Recall that profit = total revenue - total cost
Hence, total cost = total revenue - profit
c(x) = 0.21x - (0.086x - 1.1)
c(x) = 0.21x - 0.086x + 1.1
c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1
B)
Break even point is the point where total revenue equals total cost
R(x) = c(x)
0.21x = 0.124x + 1.1
0.21x - 0.124x = 1.1
0.086x = 1.1
x = 1.1/0.086
x = 12.79 which is approximately 13 units
Since each stapler costs 16.99, the total cost is 16.99*x, with x representing the number of staplers bought. This works due to that he adds 16.99 for every stapler, and multiplying it adds 16.99 each time he buys a new stapler
Answer:
45/100 = 0.45
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 9 by 20.
9/20 = 0.45
Now write 36/100 as a decimal.
36/100 = 0.36
Write 45/100 as a decimal: 0.45
Answer: 45/100 = 0.45
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Every (x,y) pair is equal to each other, thus making them proportional :)
Simplifying
j = (2j + 3)
Reorder the terms:
j = (3 + 2j)
Remove parenthesis around (3 + 2j)
j = 3 + 2j
Solving
j = 3 + 2j
Solving for variable 'j'.
Move all terms containing j to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-2j' to each side of the equation.
j + -2j = 3 + 2j + -2j
Combine like terms: j + -2j = -1j
-1j = 3 + 2j + -2j
Combine like terms: 2j + -2j = 0
-1j = 3 + 0
-1j = 3
Divide each side by '-1'.
j = -3
Simplifying
j = -3
