<u>Answer:</u> The value of x can be either 5 or 10.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We are given:
Total profit, P = $5600
The given equation follows:
⇒ P = 600 + 1500x - 100x²
Putting value of P in above equation, we get:
⇒ -100x² + 1500x + 600 = 5600
⇒ -100x² + 1500x - 5000 = 0
⇒ 100x² - 1500x + 5000 = 0
Solving this equation by middle term split, we get:
⇒ 100(x² - 15x + 50) = 0
⇒ (x² - 10x - 5x + 50) = 0
⇒ x(x - 10) - 5(x -10) = 0
⇒ (x - 10)(x - 5) = 0
⇒ x = 10, 5
Hence, the value of x can be either 5 or 10.

Answer:
- length: 29 ft
- width: 20 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the dimensions are integer numbers of feet, you're looking for factors of 580 that have a difference of 9.
580 = 1×580 = 2×290 = 4×145 = 5×116 = 10×58 = 20×29
The last pair of factors differs by 9, so ...
the length is 29 feet; the width is 20 feet.
Part A.
The trip starts at 8am which corresponds to 0 hrs, point (0hr, 0mi)
2hrs later it's 10am. .point (2hr, 140mi)
The average speed is the slope between 0 and 2 hrs. Remember the slope formula m = Δy/Δx
m = (140 - 0) / (2 - 0)
m = 70 mph
Part B. Average speed from 11am - 2pm
11am is point (3hr, 140mi)
2pm is point (6hr, 300mi)
As you can see from the graph, the speed or slope changes at 1pm (5,260). You Can just use the start and end points.
m = (300-140) / (6-3)
m = 160/3
53.3 mph
* It comes out the same solution as if you average the two different slopes. 2hrs at 60mph + 1 hr at 40mph = (120 + 40)/3 = 160/3
Part C. Total average speed = total distance / total time driving
He went 70 mph for 2 hrs
stopped for an hour (slope is zero, no speed)
60 mph for 2hrs
40mph for 1 hr
300mi /5hr = 60mph
Part D. No Question....
sorry do not know the answer'
