Answer:
y = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
7y - 5 = 9y + 10 + y
7y - 5 = 10y + 10
3y + 10 = -5
3y = -15
y = -5
Answer:
Carly will have to spend $7.25
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that:
1 pound of turkey = $5.80
To find how much 1.25 pounds of turkey will cost, multiply:
5.80 x 1.25 = 7.25
Therefore, 1.25 pounds of turkey will cost $7.25
I really hope this helps!

Here is our profit as a function of # of posters
p(x) =-10x² + 200x - 250
Here is our price per poster, as a function of the # of posters:
pr(x) = 20 - x
Since we want to find the optimum price and # of posters, let's plug our price function into our profit function, to find the optimum x, and then use that to find the optimum price:
p(x) = -10 (20-x)² + 200 (20 - x) - 250
p(x) = -10 (400 -40x + x²) + 4000 - 200x - 250
Take a look at our profit function. It is a normal trinomial square, with a negative sign on the squared term. This means the curve is a downward facing parabola, so our profit maximum will be the top of the curve.
By taking the derivative, we can find where p'(x) = 0 (where the slope of p(x) equals 0), to see where the top of profit function is.
p(x) = -4000 +400x -10x² + 4000 -200x -250
p'(x) = 400 - 20x -200
0 = 200 - 20x
20x = 200
x = 10
p'(x) = 0 at x=10. This is the peak of our profit function. To find the price per poster, plug x=10 into our price function:
price = 20 - x
price = 10
Now plug x=10 into our original profit function in order to find our maximum profit:
<span>p(x)= -10x^2 +200x -250
p(x) = -10 (10)</span>² +200 (10) - 250
<span>p(x) = -1000 + 2000 - 250
p(x) = 750
Correct answer is C)</span>
Answer:
The turns of a graph is represented by the number of maximum or minimum that the function has.
If we differenciate f(x) we get:
f'(x)=4x^3+6x
f'(x)=2x(2x^2 + 3)
Therefore f'(x) =0, when x=0. Given that negative roots are not defined.
Therefore, the number of turns will be given by the number of solutions of f'(x) which is 1.
Attached you find the graph of the function which confirms the number of turns.
If the function had other solutions, the maximum number of turns it could have is 3! because f'(x) is a third degree polynomial, therefore it can't have more than 3 solutions!
