Name the two solutions of (2x – 1)^2 = 25.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3 & -2

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x – 1)^2 = 25

2x -1 = ±√25

2x -1 = ± 5

• 2x = 5+1

2x = 6

x = 3

• 2x = -5+1

2x = -4

x = -2

Answer 2

Answer:

Solution given:

(2x – 1)^2 = 25.

square root on both side

[tex]\sqrt{(2x-1)²}=\sqrt{25}[/tex]

2x-1=±5

Taking positive

2x-1=+5

2x=+5+1

x=6/2=3

Taking negative

2x-1=-5

2x=-5+1

x=-4/2

x=-2

The two Solution is x=-2 and x=3.

Additional fixed costs (development and personnel costs) amount to $500,000, and the network has agreed to provide a discount of $160,000 x for x television spots.

Required:
Write down the cost function C, marginal cost function C’, and average cost function

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Your company is planning to air a number of television commercials during a television network's presentation of the an awards show. The network is charging your company $1.9 million per 30-second spot. Additional fixed costs (development and personnel costs) amount to $500,000, and the network has agreed to provide a discount of $160,000√x for x television spots.  

Required:

Write down the cost function C, marginal cost function C’, and average cost function

Answer:

- The  the cost function is 500,000 + 1,900,000x - 160,000√x

- the marginal cost function is 1,900,000 - (80000 /√x  )

- The  average cost function is 1,900,000 + [ 500,000 / x ] - [ 160,000 / √x ]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

cost per spot = $1.9 million

Additional cost =  $500,000

discount = $160,000√x

 Let C(x) represent the cost ;

Cost x television spot = cost per spot × Number pf spots

Cost x television spot = $1.9 million × x

Cost x television spot = $1,900,000x

Now, the television set total cost will be;

C(x) = television cost + additional cost - discount  

C(x) = 500,000 + 1,900,000x - 160,000√x

Therefore, The  the cost function is 500,000 + 1,900,000x - 160,000√x

Marginal Cost Function;

Cost function C(x) = 500,000 + 1,900,000x - 160,000√x

we differentiate with respect to x

C'(x) = d/dx( 500,000 + 1,900,000x - 160,000√x )

= d/dx( 500000 ) + 1,900,000d/dx -160,000 d/d( √x )

= 0+ 1,900,000(1) -160,000( 1 / 2√x )

= 1,900,000 - (160,000 / 2√x  )

= 1,900,000 - (80000 /√x  )

Therefore, the marginal cost function is 1,900,000 - (80000 /√x  )

Average cost function;

Average cost function = C(x) / x

we substitute

Average cost function = [500,000 + 1,900,000x - 160,000√x] / x

=  [500,000 / x ] + [1,900,000x / x ]  - [ 160,000√x / x ]

=  [ 500,000 / x ] + 1,900,000 - [ 160,000√x / x ]

=  1,900,000 + [ 500,000 / x ] - [ 160,000 / √x ]

Therefore, The average cost function is 1,900,000 + [ 500,000 / x ] - [ 160,000 / √x ]

Cedar Point has 17 roller coasters. If you want to ride at least 15 of them, how many different combinations of roller coasters can you ride? NO LINKS!!!​

Answers

Answer:   154

================================================

Explanation:

I'll be using the formula

[tex]_n C _r = \frac{n!}{r!*(n-r)!}[/tex]

which is the nCr combination formula. We use nCr instead of nPr because the order of coasters doesn't matter. The whole time, the value of n stays fixed at n = 17 which is the total number of coasters to pick from.

While n is constant, the value of r will vary. It ranges from r = 15 to r = 17 inclusive of both endpoints. In other words, r will take on values from the set {15,16,17}. So we have three cases to consider. The r value is how many coasters we select. This is due to the "at least 15" which means "15 or more".

-----------------------

If you ride r = 15 coasters, then we have the following number of combinations

[tex]_n C _r = \frac{n!}{r!*(n-r)!}\\\\_{17} C _{15} = \frac{17!}{15!*(17-15)!}\\\\_{17} C _{15} = \frac{17!}{15!*2!}\\\\_{17} C _{15} = \frac{17*16*15!}{15!*2!}\\\\_{17} C _{15} = \frac{17*16}{2!}\\\\_{17} C _{15} = \frac{17*16}{2*1}\\\\_{17} C _{15} = \frac{272}{2}\\\\_{17} C _{15} = 136\\\\[/tex]

There are 136 ways to ride exactly 15 coasters (when selecting from a pool of 17 total). The order doesn't matter.

We'll use this result later, so let x = 136.

-----------------------

If r = 16, then we follow the same steps as above. You should get 17C16 = 17

There are 17 ways to ride 16 coasters where order doesn't matter. Effectively this is the same as saying "there are 17 ways of picking a coaster that you won't ride"

Let y = 17 so we can use it later

-----------------------

Lastly, if r = 17, then nCr = 17C17 = 1 represents one way to ride all 17 coasters where order doesn't matter.

Let z = 1

-----------------------

Add up the values of x, y, and z to get the final answer

x+y+z = 136+17+1 = 154

in a group of 35 children, 10 have blonde hair, 14 have brown eyes, and 4 have both blonde hair and brown eyes. if a child is selected at random, find the probability that the child has blonde hair or brown eyes

Answers

[tex] \frac{14}{35} + \frac{10}{35} - \frac{4}{35} = \frac{4}{7} [/tex]

The solution is, 4/7 is the probability that the child has blonde hair or brown eyes.

What is probability?

Probability can be defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes of an event.

here, we have,

given that,

in a group of 35 children, 10 have blonde hair, 14 have brown eyes, and 4 have both blonde hair and brown eyes.

let, the event be A,

i.e. A = if a child is selected at random, that child has blonde hair or brown eyes.

now, we have,

total no of sample space = 35

probability of blonde hair = 10/ 35

probability of brown eyes = 14/35

probability of both blonde hair and brown eyes = 4/35

so, we get,

probability of  blonde hair or brown eyes = 14/ 35 + 10/ 35 - 4/35

                                                                    = 20 / 35

                                                                    = 4/7

Hence, The solution is, 4/7 is the probability that the child has blonde hair or brown eyes.

Answers

Answer:

Option 2: -¾

Step-by-step explanation:

First identify 2 points on the line.

(0, 1), (4, -2)

Substitute the coordinates into the gradient formula below:

[tex]\boxed{gradient = \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2} }[/tex]

☆ (x₁, y₁) is the 1st coordinate and (x₂, y₂) is the 2nd coordinate.

Slope of the line

[tex] = \frac{1 - ( - 2)}{0 - 4} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{1 + 2}{ - 4} [/tex]

[tex] = - \frac{3}{4} [/tex]

☆ Since the line is sloping downwards looking from the left to right, the line must have a negative slope.

Elam can wire a light in 40
minutes. Michael can wire a
light in 60 minutes. How long
would it take them to wire the
light together?

Answers

Answer:

24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We use 1/a + 1/b = 1/c

where a and b are the individual times and c is the time together

1/40 + 1/60 = 1/c

Multiply each side by 120c

120c( 1/40 + 1/60 = 1/c)

3c + 2c = 120

5c = 120

Divide each side by 5

5c/5 = 120/5

c = 24

Answer: 24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this kind of a problem which is called a work problem, it's important to understand the following idea.

Since Elam can wire a light in 40 minutes, we know that in 1 minute,

Elam can wire 1/40 of the light and in 2 minutes, Elam can wire 2/40 of it.

Therefore, in t hours, Elam can wire t/40 of the light.

The same applies for Michael, in t hours, he can wire t/60 of the light.

So to solve the problem, we use the following formula:

Part of job done by Elam + part of job done Michael = 1 job done

The part of the job done by Elam is t/40 and t/60 for Michael.

So we have t/40 + t/60 = 1.

Now multiply both sides by 120 to get 3t + 2t = 120

or 5t = 120 so t = 24.

So it takes 24 minutes if they work together.

The nth term of sequence is n2 + 20
Work out the first three times of sequence

How many times in the sequence are less than 50

Answers

Answer:

First three terms:

22,24,26

There are 15 terms in the sequence that are 50 or less, yet only 14 if its just less than 50.

Answers:

The first three terms are 21, 24, 29

5 terms of the sequence less than 50.

======================================================

Explanation:

Plug in n = 1 to find that n^2+20 = 1^2+20 = 1+20 = 21. The first term is 21.

Repeat for n = 2 and you should get 2^2+20 = 24 as the second term.

The third term is 29 through similar steps, but this time you use n = 3 of course.

The first three terms are 21, 24, 29

It's effectively the first three perfect squares 1, 4, 9 but we have a tens digit of 2 stuck to the left of each value.

--------------------

We want to find when n^2+20 is less than 50. We could keep plugging values of n into that expression and record if the result is less than 50 or not, then tally those occurrences. You should record 5 such occurrences.

Or we could do a bit of algebra like so

n^2+20 < 50

n^2 < 50-20

n^2 < 30

sqrt(n^2) < sqrt(30)

n < sqrt(30)

On a calculator, sqrt(30) is roughly 5.4772 which means n < 5.4772. If n is a a natural number, then the largest it can get is n = 5 to ensure n^2+20 is less than 50.

We can see that,

n^2+20 = 5^2+20 = 45 when n = 5n^2+20 = 6^2+20 = 56 when n = 6

This helps show that n = 5 is the largest n to make n^2+20 < 50 a true statement. This means that there are 5 terms of the sequence less than 50.
