a) You need to sell 12 or 29 dresses.

b) Any number between 2 and 39 dresses will give a positive profit.

<h3>How many dresses must be sold in order to make a profit of 3000 euros?</h3>

Here we know that the profit, in euros, as a function of the number of dresses sold is:

P(x) = -11*x^2 + 450*x - 800

Now, if you want to find how many dresses you need to sell to have a profit of 3000 euros, then you need to solve:

P(x) = 3000 = -11*x^2 + 450*x - 800

So we need to solve the quadratic equation:

-11x^2 + 450x - 800 - 3000 = 0

-11x^2 + 450x - 3800 = 0

The solutions are given by Bhaskara's formula:

x = (-450 ± √(450^2 - 4*(-3800)*(-11))/2*(-11)

x = (-450 ± 187.9)/(-22)

We have two solutions that give the same profit:

  • x = (-450 + 187.9)/-22 = 11.9 that can be rounded to 12.
  • x = (-450 - 187.9)/-22 = 28.99 that can be rounded 29.

Then if you sell either 12 or 29 dresses, you will get a profit of 3000 euros.

b) To make a profit you need to sell more than P = 0, so let's solve that first:

P= 0 = -11*x^2 + 450*x - 800

The solutions are:

x = (-450  ± √(450^2 - 4*(-800)*(-11))/2*(-11)

x = (-450  ± 409)/(-22)

The smaller solution is:

x = (-450 + 409)/-22 = 1.86 that can be rounded to 2.

(because you can't sell 1.86 of a dress)

The other solution is:

x =  (-450 - 409)/-22 = 39

So, between 2 and 39 dresses, you will make a profit.

Solve the system of equations. -10y+9x=-9 <br> 10y+5x=-5
alexira [117]

by the use of elimination method

make all coefficients of subject to be eliminated similar..by multiplying the coefficients with one another

for eqn(i)

5(-10y+9x=-9)

-50y+45x=-45

for eqn(ii)

9(10y+5x=-5)

90y+45x=-45

-50y+45x=-45

90y+45x=-45

...subtract each set from the other...

we get

-140y+0=0

y=0

from eqn(i)

10y+5x=-5

0+5x=-5

x= -1

Why is adding 3/9 and 6/9 different from multpying the two fractions? Explain

<h3>♫ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ~<u>Hello There</u>!~ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ♫</h3>

➷ When you add fractions, you have to have the same denominator whereas, when you multiply them, you don't have to. (In this case the denominators are already the same.) Also, multiplying the fractions would make the result smaller whereas adding them would make it larger.

➶ Good Luck (:
