Break even is the value of t where revenue=cost or R(t)=C(t)

set equal each other

-50t^2+300t=600-50t
multiply both sides by -1
50t^2-300t=50t-600
divide both sides by 50
t^2-6t=t-12
minus t-12 from both sides
t^2-7t+12=0
factor
(t-4)(t-3)=0
set each to zero
t-4=0
t=4

t-3=0
t=3
the cost is $3 or $4

it will first break even at t=3$

The break even exists when the cost of the process is equal to the revenue of the selling. In this case, -50t^2 + 300t  = 600-50t; <span>50t^2 -350 t  + 600 = 0. t is the number of tickets. In this problem, the breakeven point is at t equal to 4 and 3 tickets. the ticket price should be 600- 50*3 equal to 450 dollars as this is the greater one between the two to gain more revenue after break even</span>

Maslowich

Answer:

The total change that will likely occur in 2 years is =-3\frac{2}{3} mg/L        

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The first year, they found the chloride concentration changed by -1\frac{3}{5} mg/L .

It is estimated that the chloride concentration will change -2\frac{1}{15} mg/L the next year.

To find : What is the total change that will likely occur in 2 years?

Solution :

The chloride concentration changed by -1\frac{3}{5}=-\farc{8}{5} mg/L in first year.

The chloride concentration will change -2\frac{1}{15}=-\frac{31}{15} mg/L the next year.

The total change that will likely occur in 2 years is

=-\frac{8}{5}+(-\frac{31}{15})

=\frac{-24-31}{15}

=\frac{-55}{15}

=\frac{-11}{3}

In a mixed fraction - =-3\frac{2}{3} mg/L

hjlf

Answer:

An equilateral triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Because an equilateral has a feature that all sides have the same length and all angles are of the same, it does not matter from which side and peak the centroid, circumcenter, incenter and orthocenter is created, they would always end up at the same point.

How do you solve -9( -4r + 6s ) + 3s - 7(6s - 2r)
slavikrds [6]

Answer: 2.1 Pull out like factors :

6s - 2r  =   -2 • (r - 3s)

Equation at the end of step

 ((0-(9•(6s-4r)))+3s)--14•(r-3s)

Pulling out like terms

4.1     Pull out like factors :  6s - 4r  =   -2 • (2r - 3s)

Equation at the end of step

 ((0--18•(2r-3s))+3s)--14•(r-3s)

Final result :

 <u>50r - 93s</u>
