We were required to learn about Aztec mathematics for the competition. The mathematical works of the Aztecs are among the most complex of any pre-Columbian culture. The Aztecs represented numerals with symbols for hands, hearts, and arrows. The researchers invested a great deal of time and energy into deciphering Aztec agricultural documents in an attempt to discover how the seemingly clever inhabitants of that culture arrived at their area estimations. [1] Once they included the frequently used and significant glyphs, the calculations made sense. The ethnic tribes that ruled Mexico politically and socially from the 1330s to the early 1500s a...

Mathematical Equation Solving Table of Contents Q 1(a). 3 Q 1(b). 3 Q 2. 3 Q 3. 3 Q 4. 4 Q 5. 4 Q 1(a) Selling Price : $ 11 per shaver. Variable Cost per shaver = $ 3 Fixed Cost = $ 100000 In order to break even, R(X) – C(X) should be equal to zero. Hence, the equation would be = (11x – 3x – 100000) should be equal to zero. Solving for X, we get 12,500 units. Q 1(b) If the company sells 15000 units, then it is higher than the break even point of 12,500 units. This would result in a profit. Hence, Profit = ((11*15000) – (3*15000) – 10000...
