Mrs. Ramiriz is making pies to sell at the local farmer’s market. It costs her $5 to make each pie, plus a one-time cost of $30 for baking supplies. She plans to sell the pies for $12 each. Which equation can be used to find the number of pies she needs to sell to break even?a.5x – 12x = 30
b.5x + 12x = 30
c.5x + 30 = 12x
d.12x + 30 = 5x

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: To answer the problem above, we must first define the word break even. Break even means there is no gain or loss, the difference between the capital amount and the sale amount is zero. In equation, let x be the number of pies. 5x + 30 = 12x, $5 times the number of pies plus $30 is equal to $12 times the number of pies sold. The answer is letter C.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

c.5x + 30 = 12x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :Mrs. Ramiriz is making pies to sell at the local farmer’s market. It costs her $5 to make each pie, plus a one-time cost of $30 for baking supplies. She plans to sell the pies for $12 each.

To Find: Which equation can be used to find the number of pies she needs to sell to break even?

Solution:

Let no. of pies be x

It cost her $5 to make each pie

so, cost of making x pies = 5x

Since there is a one-time cost of $30 for baking supplies.

So, total cost for her is 5x+30

If she sells each pie for $12

Then cost of pies = 12x

Now equation can be used to find the number of pies she needs to sell to break even:

5x+30=12x

a bottle rocket that was made in science class has a trajectory path that followed the quadratic equation y equals negative x squared + 4x + 6 what is the turning point of the Rockets

Answers

y= -x^(2)+4x+6

Turning points occur when the gradient of the function is zero.
(dy)/(dx) =-2x+4
Then equating to 0;
-2x+4=0
-2x=-4
x=2

From the fucntion, when x=2 ;
y=-(2)^(2)+4(2) +6
y=-8+8+6
y=6
Turning point;
(2,6)

5/6 + 3/7

Common denominator is needed. 

5/6 = 35/42
3/7 = 18/42

Now add
