Answer:

a) Total cost = 500 + 170x

b) 11 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(a)

Number of days in hospital = x

Cost of operation = $ 500

Cost of nursing per day = $170

∴ Cost of nursing for x days = $ 170x

Therefore, the expression for total cost of her operation and nursing care is given as,

C=500+170x, where C is the total cost.

(b)

Given:

Total cost of operation = C=\$ 2370

Using the expression obtained in (a), we solve for x.

C=500+170x

Plug in 2370 for C and solve for x. This gives,

2370=500+170x\\ 170x=2370-500\\ x=\frac{1870}{170}\\x=11

Therefore, Angharad stayed in hospital for 11 days.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

in units: 18,900

in dollars: $ 41,013

Step-by-step explanation:

The break even point is the sales dollar amount or sales in unit at whichthe operating income of the firm equals to zero:\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution \:Margin} = Break\: Even\: Point_{units }

Where:

\frac{Contribution \: Margin}{Sales \: Revenue} = Contribution \: Margin \: Ratio

<em><u>Contribution margin:</u></em>

2.17 - 1.27 = 1 dollar per unit

Break even:

$18,900 fixed cost /  $1 per unit = 18,900 units

Then, in sales:

18,900 x $2.17 each = 41.013‬

break even point:

Step-by-step explanation:

Han is multiplying10x^4 by 0.5^3 and gets 5x^7 is not a polynomial because 0.5 is not an integer. What is the error in han’s thinking explain

On multiplying 10x⁴ by 0.5x³,

10x^4\times 0.5x^3=(10\times 0.5)x^{4+3}\\\\=5x^7

A polynomial is a combination of coefficients and variables. It is made up of one or more monomial. Han says that it is not a polynomial because 0.5 is not an integer. The statement is false. After multiplication we get 5x⁷. It has a variable x and constant 5. Hence, its is a polynomial.
