A car company’s profit can be modeled by the equation P = –2x^2 + 44x – 42, where P is the profit in millions of dollars and x is the number of cars sold in thousands.
(a.) How many cars are sold when the company breaks even?
(b.) What is the company’s maximum profit? How many cars sold gives the maximum profit?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 1000,21000 are the break even number of cars

b) the maximum profit is 200 at 11000 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

P = –2x^2 + 44x – 42

To break even, P =0

0 = –2x^2 + 44x – 42

Factor

0 = -2( x^2 -22x+21)

0 = -2 ( x-21)(x-1)

Using the zero product property

0 = x-21    0 = x-1

x=21            x=1

Remember that x is the number of cars in thousands

When the profit is maximum is at the vertex

The vertex is 1/2 way between the two zeros

(1+21)/2 = 22/2 = 11

11 cars sold

The maximum profit is

P(11) = –2(11)^2 + 44(11) – 42=--242+484-42=200

The maximum profit is 200

To make 12 cookies, you need 1.25cups of all-purpose flour, 110grams of butter, half cup of brown sugar and 1 teaspoon (tsp) of baking soda, what is the ratio of brown sugar is to baking soda is to butter to make 24 cookies is ?

Answers

Answer:

1 cup of brown sugar to 2 teaspoon of baking soda

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 1.25cups of all-purpose flour, 110grams of butter, half cup of brown sugar and 1 teaspoon (tsp) of baking soda is needed to make 12 cookies. Therefore to make 24 cookies, double of this value would be needed.

Hence, 2.5 cups of flour, 220 grams of butter, 1 cup of brown sugar and 2 teaspoon of baking soda would be needed to make 24 cookies.

The ratio of brown sugar is to baking soda is to butter to make 24 cookies = 1 cup / 2 teaspoon = 1 cup of brown sugar to 2 teaspoon of baking soda

Which equations are equivalent to his weekly addition of 0.5 km and would correctly determine how many weeks it will take Hector to reach 10 km if he starts at 2.5 km and adds 0.5 km every week? Select all that apply. 0.5x + 2.5 = 10 0.5 – 2.5 = 10x 10 = 2.5 + 0.5x 2.5x + 0.5 = 10 2.5x – 0.5 = 10

Answers

Answer:

C. 10 = 2.5 + 0.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

A. 0.5x + 2.5 = 10

B. 0.5 – 2.5 = 10x

C. 10 = 2.5 + 0.5x

D. 2.5x + 0.5 = 10

E. 2.5x – 0.5 = 10

Total distance Hector covers = 10 km

Distance he has covered = 2.5 km

Distance he covers per week = 0.5 km

Let

x = number of weeks

The equation is given by

2.5 + 0.5x = 10

It can also be written as:

10 = 2.5 + 0.5x

10 - 2.5 = 0.5x

7.5 = 0.5x

x = 7.5/0.5

x = 15 weeks

Answer:

Answers

Answer:

x = 120-95

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct equation for the expression is:

∠AFC = ∠AFB+ ∠BFC

Given that

∠AFC = 120°

∠BFC = 95°

Substitute

120= ∠AFB+95

∠AFB = 120-95

If ∠AFB = x

The required equation will be:

Answers

Answer:

Choice C: Lauren is faster than Kevin, slower than Jeremy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so it directly says that Jeremy is going at y=12x, or 12 miles per hour. To find how fast Kevin is riding, take two points of the table and use the slope formula to get the speed(.

Slope Formula: (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

So lets take the table plots (2, 22) and (4, 33) to do this.

(y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

(33-22) / (4-2)

(11) / (2)

The speed of Kevin is 5.5 miles by hour.

Then, it asks for how fast Lauren is going, saying she is twice as fast as Kevin. Therefore, simply do:

5.5 * 2 = 11 miles per hour

To get the third biker's speed.

Now, with all of the speeds of the bikers, we can now compare them. Here's a listing of their speeds to make things easier to compare:

Jeremy: 12 mph

Kevin: 5.5 mph

Lauren: 11 mph

From this, we can see that Lauren is the second fastest. She is slower than Jeremy but faster than Kevin. Therefore, the correct answer choice is C.

The Story of Ben and Arthur- Both save $500 per month at 11% compounded monthly. Ben starts at age 19 and stops at age 26, while Arthur starts at age 27 and stops at age 65.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is not clear what the question is. But, I will assume that we need to calculate the future value of each investment at age 65.

First, we need to calculate the future value of the monthly deposit made by Ben. We will use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit= 500

Interest rate (i)= 0.11/12= 0.0092

Number of months (n)= (26 - 19)*12= 84

FV= {500*[(1.0092^84) - 1]} / 0.0092

FV= $62,944.74

Now, the future value of the investment of Ben at age 65:

FV= PV*(1 + i)^n

n= (65 - 26)*12= 468 months

FV= 62,944.74*(1.0092^468)

FV= $4,574,131.31

Finally, the future value of the investment for Arthur:

i= 0.0092

n= (65 - 27)*12= 456

A= 500

FV= {500*[(1.0092^456) - 1]} / 0.0092

FV= $3,484,032.07

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to do slope is to know the formula which is (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)

In this case you have two points (2,5) and (0,-1)

2 = x1 (cause it’s the first x)

5 = y1 (cause it’s the first y)

0 = x2 (second x)

-1 = y2 (second y)

So the slope would be

(5-(-1))/2-0= 6/2 = 3

M= y2-y1
——— y2=-1, y1= 5|| x2=0, x1=2

Jara quiere fabricar un cohete con cartulina. Para ello ha construido un cilindro de 0,25 metros de radio y medio metro de altura y un cono con el mismo radio y la mitad de la altura. ¿Que volumen ocupa su cohete? Ayudaaa

Answers

Respuesta:

0,114 m³

Explicación:

El volumen del cohete será igual a la suma de los volumenes del cilindro y del cono

Volumen del cilindro

El cilindro tiene un radio (r) de 0,25 m y una altura (h) de 0,5 m. Podemos encontrar su volumen usando la siguiente formula.

Vcil = π × r² × h

Vcil = π × (0,25 m)² × 0,5 m = 0,098 m³

Volumen del cono

El cono tiene un radio (r) de 0,25 m y una altura (h) de 0,25 m (la mitad de 0,5 m). Podemos encontrar su volumen usando la siguiente formula.

Vcono = 1/3 × π × r² × h

Vcono = 1/3 × π × (0,25 m)² × 0,25 m = 0,016 m³

Volumen del cohete

Vcohete = Vcil + Vcono = 0,098 m³ + 0,016 m³ = 0,114 m³
