Answer:

15.6 MPG

Step-by-step explanation:

You start a trip when your odometer reads 23,672 miles, and you have a full tank of gas. After driving a few hours, you fill up your tank. If you buy 16.5 gallons and your odometer reads 23,927, how many miles to the gallon are you getting, rounded to the nearest tenth of a gallon.

You went 23,927 - 23,672 = 255 miles

Because you started on a full tank, you went 255 miles on 16.5 gallons

to figure MPG:

255/16.5 = 15.4545... MPG

rounded to nearest 10th of gallon:

15.6 MPG

Answer:

Widgets should be sold by $38.88 to maximize the profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c

It's vertex is the point (x_{v}, y_{v})

In which

x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}

y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}

Where

\Delta = b^2-4ac

If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at x_{v}, and it's value is y_{v}.

In this question:

The profit is given by:

y = -9x^2 + 700x - 6005

Which is a quadratic function with a = -9, b = 700, c = -6005

The maximum profit happens at the x of the vertex. Thus

x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{700}{2(-9)} = 38.88

Widgets should be sold by $38.88 to maximize the profit.

Which equation is correctly setup to solve for x?
AURORKA [14]

The formula for the hypotenuse of a triangle is:

[a squared] plus [b squared] = c squared

a and b represent the two sides of the triangle.

You would have to square 8 and 4, add them, then take the square root of it to find the length of the hypotenuse.

<h2>The first equation is correct.</h2>
