We are given with the formula
p = 200k - 500
a) The constraint for this formula is obtained from the idea that the profit must be positive
200k - 500 > 0 
k > 500/200
k > 2.5
b) To make 14000 profit
 14000 = 200k - 500
k = 72.5 or 73 knives must be sold

Find each difference 1 1/2 + (-1/2)
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

1 1/2 + (-1/2) is also 1 1/2 - 1/2.

the result is 1 whole, and 1 whole is also the difference between 1 1/2 and 1/2.

Say you have half of a cheese piece, but your friend has 1 whole cheese piece plus half of a cheese piece.

He/She has 1 more cheese piece than you, right? That's the difference between you and your friend's cheese. 1 whole.

Find an equation of the line tangent to the curve √xy + 4y = 39 at the point (1,9)?
evablogger [386]
Find the derivative of the curve to find the line slope at the given point

sqrt(xy) + 4 dy/dx = 39

0.5(xy)^(-0.5) * (y + x dy/dx) + 4dy/dx=  0

No need to amplify simply plug in the given point ( 1,9)

0.5 ( 1 * 9)^(-0.5)* ( 9 + dy/dx) + 4dy/dx  = 0 

Solve for dy/dx

1/6( 9  + dy/dx)  = -4dy/dx

9 + dy/dx = -24 dy/dx

-25dy/dx = 9

dy/dx = -9/25

as your question implies , you know the rest of the steps.

Graph the inequality below on the number line.
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

You start at -9

-Open circle

-shade towards the right (where all the positive numbers are)

Open circle - ones that don't have a greater than or equal to. If it does then it's a closed one.

Shade towards the right cause y is less than 9

Mama L [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the first number is 2

Then 2 x 2 = 4 so there is a difference of 4 number

Then in between 6 and 14 there is a difference of 8 so 4 x 2 = 8

Then 16 so 8 x 2 = 16

So after 126 the number is 254
