A company sells widgets. The amount of profit, y, made by the company, is related to the selling price of each widget, x, by the given equation. Using this equation, find out what price the widgets should be sold for, to the nearest cent, for the company to make the maximum profit.


y = -x^2 + 99x - 932

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$49.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -x^2 + 99x - 932

The maximum point is :

dy/dx = 0

Take the first derivative of y

dy/dx = - 2x + 99

Put - 2x + 99 = 0

-2x = - 99

x = 99 / 2

x = 49.5

Hence, To make maximum profit, widget should be sold at $49.5 per widget.

g(x)=4x^2-16x+7


g(x)=___(x+___)^2+__

Answers

Answer:

[tex]g(x) = 4(x - 2)^2 -9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]g(x) = 4x^2 - 16x + 7[/tex]

Required

Complete the square

Rewrite so that [tex]x^2[/tex] has 1 coefficient

[tex]g(x) = 4(x^2 - 4x) + 7[/tex]

Take half of the coefficient of x

[tex]\frac{4}{2} = 2[/tex]

Square the result

[tex](\frac{4}{2})^2 = 2^2[/tex]

[tex](\frac{4}{2})^2 = 4[/tex]

Add and subtract the result in the bracket

[tex]g(x) = 4(x^2 - 4x + 4 - 4) + 7[/tex]

Expand the bracket to remove -4

[tex]g(x) = 4(x^2 - 4x + 4) - 16 + 7[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = 4(x^2 - 4x + 4) -9[/tex]

Expand the bracket

[tex]g(x) = 4(x^2 - 2x -2x+ 4) -9[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]g(x) = 4(x(x - 2) -2(x-2)) -9[/tex]

Factor out x - 2

[tex]g(x) = 4((x - 2)(x-2)) -9[/tex]

Express as square

[tex]g(x) = 4(x - 2)^2 -9[/tex]

Josh is a car salesman. He gets an annual salary of $45,000 plus a commission, C, of $250 for every car he sells. Which equation represents Josh's total annual salary, S?

A. S=45,000+250C
B.S=45,000−250C
C. S=45,000C+250
D. S=45,000C−250

Answers

Since he has an annual salary, the salary stays the same, making it the y intercept.
As for 250, it goes to every car he sells, making it the slope
S = y + mc (y = y intercept, m = slope)
Plug in the values to see

Solution: A. 45,000 + 250C

Mike measured the stage where his band was going to play to determine if it is a right triangle. Does the stage with side lengths of 36 feet, 48 feet, and 60 feet form a right triangle

Answers

Answer:

let

hypotenuse[h]=60ft

base[b]=36ft

perpendicular [p]=48ft

by using Pythagoras law

p²+b²=h²

48²+36²=60²

2896≠3600

since p²+b²≠ h²[so the stage is not in a right angled triangle]but it is scalene triangle

The equation 40 ÷ 100 × 120 = a shows

the relationship 40% of 120 is a

What is an equation?

Equations are mathematical statements containing two algebraic expressions on both sides of an 'equal to (=)' sign. It shows the relationship of equality between the expression written on the left side with the expression written on the right side. In every equation in math, we have, L.H.S = R.H.S (left hand side = right hand side).

'An equation is a mathematical statement with an 'equal to' symbol between two expressions that have equal values.'

For example, 3x + 5 = 15.

Given,

Relation, 40% of 120 is a

⇒ 40% × 120 = a

Above relation can be written in equation as

40 ÷ 100 × 120 = a

Hence, 40 ÷ 100 × 120 = a is the equation

Enter the measure of the angle that is formed between the ladder and the ground, rounded to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

51.3 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Trig Ratio to solve for theta aka the angle formed between the ;adder and the ground.

So we have the hypotenuse = 24ft and the adjacent = 15ft so I am going to use the cos ratio.

cos ∅ = a/h

rearrange for theta

∅ = cos -1 ( a/h)

now sub in the information

∅ = 51.3178

now round to the nearest tenth

∅ = 51.3 degrees

write your therefore statement

therefore, the angle between the ladder and the ground is 51.3 degrees.

smaller number = 3 5/24

Step-by-step explanation:

let the larger number = x

smaller number = y

x - y = 3 1/3 equation 1

2(x +y) = 191/2 equation 2

divide equation 2 through by 2

x + y = 9 3/4  equation 3

subtract equation 1 from 3

2y = 6 5/12

y = 77/12 x 1/2 = 3 5/24
