Your class is selling boxes of flower seeds as a fundraiser. The total profit p depends on the amount x that your class charges for each box of seeds. The equation p= -0.5x2 + 36x - 231 models the profit of the fundraiser. What's the smallest amount, in dollars, that you can charge and make a profit of at least $363?
Answer:
The least amount is $75.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]p \to profit[/tex]
[tex]x \to amount[/tex]
[tex]p = -0.5x^2 + 36x - 231[/tex]
Required
The smallest amount to make at least 363
We have:
[tex]p = -0.5x^2 + 36x - 231[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]-0.5x^2 + 36x - 231=p[/tex]
Substitute 363 for p
[tex]-0.5x^2 + 36x - 231 = 363[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]-0.5x^2 + 36x - 231 + 363 = 0[/tex]
[tex]-0.5x^2 + 36x + 132 = 0[/tex]
Using quadratic formula, we have:
[tex]x = \frac{-b \± \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]a = -0.5; b= 36; c = 132[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]x = \frac{-36 \± \sqrt{36^2 - 4*-0.5*132}}{2*-0.5}[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{-36 \± \sqrt{1560}}{-1}[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{-36 \± 39.50}{-1}[/tex]
Split
[tex]x = \frac{-36 + 39.50}{-1}; x = \frac{-36 - 39.50}{-1}[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{3.50}{-1}; x = \frac{-75.50}{-1}[/tex]
[tex]x = 75.50[/tex] and [tex]x = -3.50[/tex]
The amount can't be negative.
So:
[tex]x = 75.50[/tex]
Hence, the least amount is $75.50
what is the solution set for this inequalty? -8x + 40> -16
Answer:
x < 7
Step-by-step explanation:
-8x + 40> -16
Subtract 40 from each side
-8x + 40-40> -16-40
-8x >-56
Divide each side by -8, remembering to flip the inequality
-8x/-8 < -56/-8
x < 7
The equation $x + {y = 2 can be rewritten in a form that reveals the y-intercept of the graph of the equatior
Drag numbers to complete the equation that is equivalent to $x + žy = 2 and show the value of the y-intercept
Answer:
[tex]y = \frac{2}{z} - \frac{x}{z}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]x + zy = 2[/tex]
Required
Rewrite to show y-intercept
We have: [tex]x + zy = 2[/tex]
Subtract x from both sides
[tex]zy = 2-x[/tex]
Divide both sides by z
[tex]y = \frac{2}{z} - \frac{x}{z}[/tex]
The y intercet is: [tex]\frac{2}{z}[/tex]

Anybody know this one? I’m set that it is B but I am not too sure
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
It is D because there are only 3 sides given. I understand where you were going with B, but there is no angle given, (and you cannot prove one either), so the answer is simply D.
A - There is no angle, triangle does not matter
B - There is no angle, triangle is correct
C - It is similar, they have the same scale factor
D - There are 3 sides, and the triangle is correct

Answer for brainlest
Answer:
∠1 = ∠8
Step-by-step explanation:
Because they are ALTERNATE EXTERIOR ANGLE
Answer:
∠1 = ∠8
Step-by-step explanation:
Because alternate exterior angles are equal.
Also there is no angle given so you cant work them out.
simply put:
∠1 = ∠8
∠1 = ∠4
∠3 = ∠2
∠1 = ∠5
∠2 = ∠6
∠2 = ∠7
∠5 = ∠8
∠4 = ∠8
∠7 = ∠6
∠7 = ∠3

solve for k. 6 = -3(k - 10)
Answer: k = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
-3k + 30 = 6
-3k = -24
k = 8
Answer:
k = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
6 = -3(k - 10)
Divide each side by -3
6/-3 = -3/-3 *(k - 10)
-2 = k-10
Add 10 to each side
-2+10 = k-10+10
8 = k
A well-conducted opinion poll showed that 48% of voters surveyed favored the reelection of Congressman Porkbarrel. The people who conducted the survey reported that the poll had a margin of error of 3.5%. Which of the following best describes this statement
A. Based on the procedure by which this figure was generated, it is likely that the population proportion is between 44.5% and 51.5%.
B. About 3.5% of the people polled are likely to change their minds about who they will vote foir.
C. Between 44.5% and 51.5% of the voters will vote for Congressman Porkbarrel.
D. About 3.5% ofthe people interviewed refused to answer the question.
E. The probability is .48 that Congressman Porkbarrel will be reelected.
Answer:
A. Based on the procedure by which this figure was generated, it is likely that the population proportion is between 44.5% and 51.5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval:
We build a confidence interval from a sample proportion, to get an estimate of where the population proportion should likely be.
48% of voters surveyed favored the reelection of Congressman Porkbarrel, with a margin of error of 3.5%.
48 - 3.5 = 44.5%.
48 + 3.5 = 51.5%.
Following the concept of a confidence interval, the population proportion is likely to be between 44.5% and 51.5%, and thus, the correct answer is given by option A.
Three coffees and two muffins cost a total of 7 dollars. Two coffees and four muffins cost a total of 8 dollars. What is the individual price for a single coffee and a single muffin?
Answer:
Cost of a coffee = $1.5
Cost of a muffin = $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Cost of 3 coffee and 2 muffins = $7
Cost of 2 coffee and 4 muffins = $8
Find:
Cost of each
Computation:
Assume;
Cost of a coffee = a
Cost of a muffin = b
So,
3a + 2b = 7 .......... Eq1
2a + 4b = 8 .......... Eq2
Eq1 x 2
6a + 4b = 14 ......... Eq3
From Eq3 - Eq2
4a = 6
a = 1.5
Cost of a coffee = $1.5
3a + 2b = 7
3(1.5) + 2b = 7
4.5 + 2b = 7
b = 2.5/2
b = 1.25
Cost of a muffin = $1.25

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
angle 2 and angle 3 are complementary angle because their sum is 90 degree as they are perpendicular.
For an angle to be in standard position, its vertex is at the origin and the initial side lies on the
A) positive y-axis. B) positive x-axis. C) negative x-axis. D) negative x-axis.
Answer:
B) positive x-axis.
Step-by-step explanation:
angle to be in standard position, its vertex is at the origin and the initial side lies along the positive x axis
Answer:
Positive x axis
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle lies in standard position means it begins from Q1
The first side must be x axis
Then in Q1 x>0 so it's positive x axis
Suppose a fair six sided die has been relabeled so that the 6 is replaced with another 5,i.e., the sides read 1,2,3,4,5,5. If the die is rolled five times, what is the probability that we roll five distinct values
Answer:
P(rolling five distinct values) = 1/3888
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that I the fair sided dice, 6 is replaced with 5.
Thus,the numbers are now;
1,2,3,4,5,5.
This means a total of 6 possible numbers appearing.
Now, in these 6 numbers there are only 5 distinct numbers since 5 occurs twice.
P(1) = 1/6
P(2) = 1/6
P(3) = 1/6
P(4) = 1/6
P(5) = 2/6
Thus,probability of rolling 5 distinct values = 1/6 × 1/6 × 1/6 × 1/6 × 2/6 = 1/3888

Step-by-step explanation:
determine the term 6 generated by the rule TN is equals to n squared minus n and over 2
Given:
Consider the rule of a sequence is:
[tex]T_n=\dfrac{n^2-n}{2}[/tex]
To find:
The 6th term generated by the given rule.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]T_n=\dfrac{n^2-n}{2}[/tex]
Substituting [tex]n=6[/tex] in the above rule, we get
[tex]T_6=\dfrac{6^2-6}{2}[/tex]
[tex]T_6=\dfrac{36-6}{2}[/tex]
[tex]T_6=\dfrac{30}{2}[/tex]
[tex]T_6=15[/tex]
Therefore, the 6th term generated by the given rule is 15.

Simplify the fraction.
Answer:
[tex]sin(\theta) = \frac{\sqrt{17} }{7}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that:
sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2 = 1
And we know that:
[tex]cos(\theta) = \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{7} }[/tex]
We want to find the value of the sine function evaluated in theta.
If we replace that in the first equation, we get:
[tex]sin(\theta)^2 + cos(\theta)^2 = 1[/tex]
[tex]sin(\theta)^2 + (\frac{4*\sqrt{2} }{7}) ^2 = 1[/tex]
[tex]sin(\theta)^2 + (\frac{4^2*\sqrt{2}^2 }{7^2}) = 1[/tex]
[tex]sin(\theta)^2 + (\frac{16*2 }{49}) = 1[/tex]
Now we can just isolate the sine part of that equation, so we get:
[tex]sin(\theta)^2 = - (\frac{16*2 }{49}) + 1 = \frac{-32}{49} + \frac{49}{49} = \frac{-32 + 49}{49} = \frac{17}{49}[/tex]
[tex]sin(\theta) = \sqrt{\frac{17}{49} } = \frac{\sqrt{17} }{\sqrt{49} } = \frac{\sqrt{17} }{7}[/tex]
(We can't simplify the fraction anymore)
You fllp a fair coln 7 times in a row. Let X be the number of heads that come up. Which of the following cannot be a
possible value of X?
2
0
7
16
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A coin
[tex]n = 7[/tex] --- Number of flips
[tex]x \to heads[/tex]
Required
Which can't be the value of x
From the question, we understand that the coin was flipped 7 times.
This means that, the highest occurrence of head is:
[tex]x = 7[/tex]
And the list is:
[tex]x = 0[/tex]
So, the range of x is:
[tex]x = \{0,1,2,....,7\}[/tex]
In the above range, only (16) is out of range.
Hence:
[tex]x \ne 16[/tex] --- Number of heads can't be 16
