Set the height to h, and the width to w.

We know that wh=190 and h=2w-1.

Substituting 2w-1 for h, we have:

w(2w-1)=190

So:
2w^2-w-190=0

Factoring this equation, we get (2w+19)(w-10)=0.  The solutions to this equation are -9.5 and 10, but clearly the width must be positive, Substituting 10 for the width, we get 10*2-1=19 for the height.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

To obtain this form use the method of completing the square.

Given

f(x) = - 0.6x² + 4.2x + 240 ← factor out - 0.6 from the first 2 terms

     = - 0.6(x² - 7x) + 240

To complete the square

add/ subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 7x

f(x) = - 0.6(x² + 2(- 3.5)x + 12.25 - 12.25 ) + 240

      = - 0.6 (x - 3.5)² + 7.35 + 240

     = - 0.6(x - 3.5)² + 247.35

with vertex = (3.5, 247.35 )

The maximum value is the y- coordinate of the vertex

Then

f(x) = - 0.6(x - 3.5)² + 247.35 has a maximum value of 247.35

If pens cost 9 cents each, what equation could be written to calculate the cost, c, of any number of pens, p?
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The total cost (in dollars) of p pens is C = 0.09 p

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of each pen = 9 cents

Now, 1 cent  = $0.01 cents

⇒ 9 cents  = $0.09

So, the cost of  1 pen = $0.09

The number of pens purchased= p

Let the total cost of p pens = c

Also, the cost of p pens = p x ( Cost of 1 pen)  = p ( $0.09)  = 0.09 p

or, C = 0.09 p

Hence the total cost (in dollars) of p pens is C = 0.09 p.
