a retail owner can but a certain clock at an average price of $53 per clock and sell them for an average price of $84 per clock. his fixed costs are $8000 per month and his variable cost is $5 per clock. (A) how many clocks must he sell each month to break even? (B) how many clocks must he sell to have a profit of $3000?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  (A) 308 clocks

  (B) 423 clocks

Step-by-step explanation:

The contribution margin is the amount by which the selling price of the clock exceeds the cost of the clock. The contribution margin is used to figure the break-even point, and the amount of profit from sales.

  contribution margin = selling price - variable cost - purchase price

  contribution margin = $84 -5 -53 = $26

__

(A)

To break even, the contribution margin from 'b' clocks must equal or exceed the owner's fixed cost:

  26b ≥ 8000

  b ≥ 8000/26

  b ≥ 307.7

The owner must sell 308 clocks each month to break even.

__

(B)

To make a profit of $3000, the owner must sell enough clocks to cover the $8000 fixed cost and contribute an additional $3000. That is, the total contribution margin from selling p clocks must be about $3000+8000 = $11000.

  26p ≈ 11000

  p ≈ 11000/26 ≈ 423.08

The owner must sell about 423 clocks each month to earn a profit of about $3000.

__

Additional comment

Selling 423 clocks will yield a profit of $2998.

In the adjoining figure, the parallel lines are marked by arrow lines. The value of angle 1 is:

Answers

Answer:

20°

Step-by-step explanation:

40°, 70° and 90° are the measures of the three angles of the quadrilateral.

Measure of fourth angle of the Quadrilateral

= 360° - (40° + 70° + 90°)

= 360° - 200°

= 160°

Measure of angle 1 will be equal to the measure of the linear pair angle of 160° as they are corresponding angles.

Thus,

[tex]m\angle 1 = 180\degree- 160\degree[/tex]

[tex]\implies\huge\purple{\boxed{ m\angle 1 = 20\degree}}[/tex]

Alternate method:

[tex]m\angle 1 = 180\degree- [360\degree-(40\degree+70\degree+90\degree)][/tex]

[tex]\implies m\angle 1 = 180\degree- [360\degree-200\degree][/tex]

[tex]\implies m\angle 1 = 180\degree- 160\degree[/tex]

[tex]\implies m\angle 1 = 20\degree[/tex]

Answer:

m∠1 = 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

Alternate interior angle theorem (z-angles): when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the resulting alternate interior angles are equal.

Therefore, because of the parallel lines, angle 1 is equal to the missing angle in the quadrilateral (see attached diagram - alternate angles marked in red).

Let x = unknown angle in the quadrilateral (marked in blue on attached diagram)

Sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral = 360°

⇒ x + 40° + 70° + 90° = 360°

⇒ x + 200° = 360°

⇒ x = 160°

Angles on a straight line add up to 180°

⇒ x + m∠1 = 180°

⇒ 160° + m∠1 = 180°

⇒ m∠1 = 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

       First, we need to check a triangle with these sides is possible. Since 4 plus 5 is 9, and 9 is less than 10, we can make a triangle with these sides.

       To answer the question, we can only make one unique triangle. Why? They give us three lengths and a triangle has three sides.

            However, if they are counting a triangle in different positions the answer will be greater. Since it would just be the same triangle, I am going with the answer of only one.

This value is approximate since pi = 3.14 is approximate.

=======================================================

Work Shown:

r = radius = diameter/2 = 20/2 = 10 inches

L = slant height = 40 inches

SA = surface area of the cone

[tex]\text{SA} = \pi*r^2 + \pi*r*L\\\\\text{SA} = \pi*10^2 + \pi*10*40\\\\\text{SA} = \pi*100 + \pi*400\\\\\text{SA} = 100\pi + 400\pi\\\\\text{SA} = (100+400)\pi\\\\\text{SA} = 500\pi \text{ ... exact surface area in terms of pi}\\\\\text{SA} \approx 500*3.14\\\\\text{SA} \approx 1570\\\\[/tex]

The surface area of the cone is approximately 1570 square inches.

We can abbreviate "square inches" into [tex]\text{in}^2[/tex]

If you want to get a more accurate surface area value, then use more decimal digits of pi.

Answers

Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

We can put an actual number to this just for easier purposes

So let's say there was 100 oranges at the grocery store

Mom brought home 1/4 which is 25 oranges

100 * [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = 25

So now we have 25 oranges

Then, Shyla ate 2/5 of the oranges

So we want 2/5 of the 25 left oranges

25 * [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] = 10

And 10 out of 100 is:

1/10

The easier way to do it is to just multiply the fractions together:

[tex]\frac{1}{4} * \frac{2}{5} = \frac{2}{20} = \frac{1}{10}[/tex]

40% of 30 is 12  (boys)

Answer:

12 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

60% is the same as 6/10, and if you make the denominator 30, you must make the denominator multiply by three as well as the numerator.  this makes the number 18/30 girls in a class. if you subtract the girls from the total number of people, you get 12 boys, or 40% of the class.

you can also find that 100% - 60% = 40%, which is equal is equal to 4/10. After it's multiplied by 3 again, it becomes 12/30 or 12 boys.

what is the volume of a oblique cylinder with the height of 6 cm and a 4 cm as the radius of its base

Answers

Answer :

301.44 cm³

Explanation :

We know,

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad\pmb {\boldsymbol{ Volume_{(cylinder)} = \pi {r}^{2} h \: }}}[/tex]

Where,

r is the radius of the cylinder. Here, the radius is 4 cm

h is the height of the cylinder. Here, height is 6 cm

Here, we will take the value of π as 3.14 approximately .

Substituting the values in the formula :

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \ { \sf{ Volume_{(cylinder)} \it {= 3.14 \times ({4})^{2} \times 6 \: }}}}}[/tex]

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \ { \sf{ Volume_{(cylinder)} \it {= 3.14 \times 16\times 6 \: }}}}}[/tex]

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \ { \sf{ Volume_{(cylinder)} \it {= 3.14 \times 96 \: }}}}}[/tex]

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \ { \it{ \pmb{ Volume_{(cylinder)} {= 301.44 \: }}}}}}[/tex]

Therefore,

The volume of the cylinder is 301.44 cm³ approximately.
Formula for the volume of an oblique cylinder

To calculate the volume of an oblique cylinder is very simple, we must multiply π (Pi = ~ 3.14) by the radius to the power of two and then multiply by the height.

3.14x4^2=50.24
50.24x6=301.44
