Question 73562: I think I may have submitted this one before but I am really having trouble with it still.
Business and finance. The cost of producing a number of items x is given by C = mx + b, in which b is the fixed cost and m is the variable cost (the cost of producing one more item).
(a) If the fixed cost is $40 and the variable cost is $10, write the cost equation.
This is what I came up for this part.
C = 10x + 40
b) Graph the cost equation.
(c) The revenue generated from the sale of x items is given by R = 50x. Graph the revenue equation on the same set of axes as the cost equation.
(d) How many items must be produced for the revenue to equal the cost (the break-even point)?

Question 73659: How do you find the x-intercept of the graph of the equation:
x + 6y = 7
Also how do you find the y-intercept of the graph of the equation:
y - 3x = 4
I tried to do the problem x+6y=7 like this:
x+6y=7
x+6(1)=7(i used 1 as just a filler because thats the only way i knew to answer)
1+6(1)=7
I got this answer wrong on my test and have one more chance to correct it.
Thank you for your help.

Question 73684: Please tell me if i did these right!!
) It is approximately 300 miles from Chicago, Illinois, to St. Louis, Missouri. Allowing for various traffic conditions, a driver can average approximately 60 miles per hour.
a) How far have you traveled after 3 hours?
Answer: 180
Show work in this space: 60*3= 180
b) How far have you traveled after 4 hours?
Answer: 240
Show work in this space: 60* 4= 240
c) How far have you traveled after t hours? i.e. write a linear function that expresses the distance traveled, d, as a function of time, t.
Answer: 60 miles left to go
Distance = rate * distance
D=r(t)
300-240=60

d) How far will you HAVE LEFT to travel to reach St. Louis after you have traveled 3 hours?
Answer: 120 m
Show work in this space: 300 m-180=102m
