Sagot :

Answer:

(a) Independent variable:  b (number of bags sold)

    Dependent variable:  p(b)  (profit)

(b) 25

(c) 84700

(d) 70

(e) b < 25

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Independent variable:  b (number of bags sold)

    Dependent variable:  p(b)  (profit)

(b) To break even, set p(b) to zero and solve for b:

⇒ 350b - 8750 = 0

⇒ 350b = 8750

⇒ b = 8750 ÷ 350

⇒ b = 25

(c) Substitute b = 267 into equation and solve for p(b):

⇒ 350(267) - 8750 = 84700

(d) Set p(b) to 15750 and solve for b:

⇒ 350b - 8750 = 15750

⇒ 350b = 15750 + 8750

⇒ 350b = 24500

⇒ b = 24500 ÷ 350

⇒ b = 70

(e) If she breaks even when she sells 25 bags, if she sells less than 25 bags she will have a negative profit. So b < 25
