The Profit From A Business Isdescribed By The FunctionP(x) = -5x + 30x + 8, Where Xis The Number Of Items

Answers

Answer 1

First of all we will understand the question!!

The question is saying that you are given a function and you have to find the value of x which will give the maximum profit... Lets solve it by finding the extrema using the vertex

[tex] \rm \: p(x) = - 5 {x}^{2} + 30x + 8[/tex]

Identify the coefficients a and b of the quadratic function

[tex] \rm \: p(x) = { - 5x}^{2} + 30x + 8 \\ \rm \: a = - 5 \: and \: b \: = 30[/tex]

Since a<0, the function has the maximum value at x, calculated by substituting a and b into x=-b/2a

[tex] \rm \: x = \frac{30}{ 2 \times (- 5)} [/tex]

Solve the equation for x

[tex] \rm \: x = 3[/tex]

The maximum of the quadratic function is at x=3

Answer:

363.22

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1:

You could find the whole figure surface area than divided by 1/2

Method 2: (the one I'm going to personally be doing)

Break the figure into two rectangular figures

Formula for surface area of rectangular prism:

A = 2(width x length + height x length + height x width)

Figure 1:

A = 2(width x length + height x length + height x width)

height = 3.8 yd

length = 10.1 yd

width = 4.3 yd

A = 2((4.3) x (10.1) + (3.8) x (10.1) + (3.8) x (4.3))

A = 2(98.15)

A = 196.3

Figure 2:

A = 2(width x length + height x length + height x width)

height = 8.4 yd

length = 10.1 yd

width = 2 yd

A = 2((2) x (10.1) + (8.4) x (10.1) + (8.4) x (2))

A = 2(121.84)

A = 243.68

There is overlapping surface area that shouldnt be include so we need to subtract it...

For one face of figure 1

3.8 x 10.1 = 38.38

Total:

Figure 1 + Figure 2 - 2(one face)

196.3 - 38.38 = 157.92

243.68 - 38.38 = 205.3

205.3 + 157.92 = 363.22

Answers

Answer:

y = 108

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 16 = 3x -12 (as you can see the F shape and are on straight lines and AB is parallel to CD) .

Now we solve for x :

Subtract 2x from both sides :

16 = x - 12

Now we add 12 to both sides :

28 = x

Angle 3x-12 and y add up to 180 as they are on a straight line :

3x-12 + y = 180

Substitute x and solve for y :

3(28) - 12 + y = 180

84 - 12 + y = 180

72 + y = 180

y = 108

A = Number of girls that uses other modes o transportation = (100% - 40%) * 950 = 570

B = Number of boys that uses other modes o transportation = (100% - 30%) * (1800 - 950) = 595

What is income?

The amount received by an employee by giving the service or work to any frim will be termed as the income.

Given:

Card A - 1,879.58 ; APR 14%; monthly -43.73

Card B -    861.00 ; APR 10% ; monthly -18.29

5 years x 12 months/yr = 60 months.

Card A = 43.73 x 60 = 2,623.80

Card B = 18.29 x 60 = 1,097.40

Total : 2,623.80 + 1,097.40 = 3,721.20

Lowest APR is 10%. monthly rate: 0.83%

Total Card balance: 1,879.58 + 861 = 2,740.58

A = P * (r(1+r)^n) / [(1+r)^n -1]

A = 2,740.58 * [0.0083 (1.0083)^60] / [(1.0083)^60 - 1]

A = 2,740.58 * 0.014/0.64

A = 60.29 monthly payment.

60.29 x 60 = 3,617.40

Answers

Answer:

  36 tablets

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the number of tablets of a particular mass that are required to give a specific mass-to-volume ratio for a given volume of solution. The units used are all SI (metric) units.

__

metric units

The International System of units (abbreviated SI in all languages) defines seven base units and a number of derived units. The base unit for length is the meter. For mass, the base unit is the kilogram. The derived unit for volume is the liter, which is 1/1000 of a cubic meter.

Currently, there are 20 prefixes defined that signify powers of 10 ranging from 10^-24 to 10^24. These are used in front of the abbreviations for units. Useful here are the prefixes kilo- and milli-, standing for 10^3 and 10^-3, respectively. The relevant abbreviations are ...

m - meterg - graml or L - liter (often L is used in order to avoid confusion)k - kilom - milli

In this problem, the volume of syrup used is 180 ml, or 180×10^-3 liters. The mass of medicine in one tablet is 10 mg, or 10×10^-3 grams.

__

mass of medicine

We desire a solution with a concentration of 2 mg/ml. We want 180 ml of the solution, so the mass of medicine that needs to be incorporated is ...

  (180 ml)×(2 mg/ml) = 360 mg

number of tablets

Each tablet supplies 10 mg of medicine. To get 360 mg of medicine, we need n tablets, such that ...

  n(10 mg) = 360 mg

  n = (360 mg)/(10 mg) = 36 . . . . tablets

36 tablets of 10 mg each are needed to mix with 180 ml of syrup to give 2 mg/ml.

The area of the shaded region = area of semicircle - area of triangle ACB = 11.32 cm².

What is the Area of a Semi-circle and Triangle?

Area of a triangle = 1/2(base)(height).

Area of a semi-circle = 1/2(πr²).

m∠ACB is a right triangle based on the central angle theorem. Therefore, ΔACB is a right triangle.

Radius of circle = OC = 4 cm

CB = 4 cm

Diameter AB = 2(4) = 8 cm

Using the Pythagorean theorem, find AC in ΔACB:

AC = √(AB² - CB²)

AC = √(8² - 4²)

AC ≈ 6.9 cm

Area of ΔACB = 1/2(CB)(AC)

Area of ΔACB = 1/2(4)(6.9)

Area of ΔACB ≈ 13.8 cm²

Area of semicircle = 1/2(πr²) = 1/2(π)(4²)

Area of semicircle ≈ 25.12 cm²

Area of the shaded region = area of semicircle - area of triangle ACB = 25.12 - 13.8

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle S and Angle T are consecutive interior angles. Therefore, we know that T + S = 180°.

First, we need to solve for T, and since angles S and T are consecutive interior angles, we know that T + S = 180°. If we reorganize the equation to include the things we know (S = 105°), then we get 180° - 105° = 75°. So T is 75°.

Now, we use T = 75° and the information given to us in the picture to set up an equation. 75 = 24x + 3. Now, we can find x by isolating it. Do this by:

1) Subtracting 3 from both sides to give you 72 = 24x. We do this to get rid of the 3 from the "x side", but we must also do it to the other to keep the equation true. This moves the 3 from the "x side" to the other since we're trying to isolate x.

2) Divide 24 by both sides to get 3 = x. We use the same logic as we did for 3, except this time we divide since that's the opposite of multiplying.

In conclusion, x = 3.
