Answer: 325

Step-by-step explanation:

Student tickets: x

Adult tickets: x + 71

Total: 579

x + x + 71 = 579

2x + 71 = 579

2x = 579 - 71

2x = 508

x = 508/2

x = 254

Adult tickets = x + 71 = 254 + 71 = 325

P.S. Hope it helps. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them here. I'll be happy to help! Have a wonderful day!

A company’s profit in dollars is modeled by the equation p(x) = –0.5x2 + 100x, where x represents the number of units sold.
serg [7]

Answers:

a. The company needs to sell 100 units to reach the maxmum profit.

b. The company's maximum profit is $5,000.

Solution:

a. How many unit does the company need to sell to reach the maximum profit?

p(x)=-0.5x^2+100x

This is a quadratic equation, and its graph is a parabola vertical (because the veriable "x" is square). Comparing with the general form:

p(x)=ax^2+bx+c; a=-0.5, b=100, c=0

a=-0.5<0 (negative), then the parabola opens downward, and it has a maximimun value (maximum profit) at its vertex.

We can find the abscissa of the vertex (units that the company needs to sell to reach the maximum profit using the following formula:

x=-b/(2a)

Replacing b by 100 and a by -0.5 in the formula above:

x=-100/[2(-0.5)]

x=-100/(-1)

x=100

The company needs to sell 100 units to reach the maximum profit.


b. What's the company's maximum profit?  

To determine the maximum profit we substitute the value of "x" obrained in part "a" in the quadratic equation:

x=100→p(100)=-0.5(100)^2+100(100)

p(100)=-0.5(10,000)+10,000

p(100)=-5,000+10,000

p(100)=5,000

The company's maximum profit is $5,000.

Math:<br> Please help me I don’t understand and I need to do corrections.
GREYUIT [131]
So, you had done everything right so far (other than squaring the 2), but that was only half of the question.

to find the least common multiple, you need to first figure out what the prime factors have in common.
{2}^{2}  \times 3 \times 5 \\ and \\  {2}^{2}  \times  {3}^{2}  \times 5 \times 7
each have two twos. both have one 5, so we know our answer will look something like
{2}^{2}  \times 5 \times other \: stuff
now to figure out the other stuff... we have to represent the greatest amount of everything that is left, and we have 3s and 7s left over, so we need to figure out how many of each we need.

one has one 3 and one has two, so we need two threes. now our equation is
{2}^{2}  \times {3}^{2}  \times 5 \times stuff

what's the only number we have to deal with? 7...

how many sevens does 60 have? 0, and 630 has 1, so we know we need one 7. our answer becomes

5. Find the lateral surface area of the net of<br> the cube.<br> 1.8 cm
igor_vitrenko [27]

<u>Given</u>:

Given that the side length of the cube is 1.8 cm

We need to determine the lateral surface area of the cube.

<u>Lateral surface area of the cube:</u>

The lateral surface area of the cube can be determined using the formula,

LSA=4a^2

where a is the side length.

Substituting a = 1.8 in the above formula, we get;

LSA=4(1.8)^2

Squaring the term, we get;

LSA=4(3.24)

Multiplying, we get;

LSA=12.96

Thus, the lateral surface area of the cube is 12.96 cm²
