Answer:
x = 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
using the sine ratio in the right triangle and the exact value
sin60° =
, then
sin60° =
=
=
( cross- multiply )
2x = 3
( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 1.5
Note that fiona cannot sell decimal number of cupcakes or muffins. That's why the options A and D are false.
Consider all remaining options:
B. 40 cupcakes and 80 muffins will cost $(40·3+80·2)=$(120+160)=$280, but Fiona Follies sold at least $300 worth of cupcakes and muffins. Thus, this option is false.
C. 60 cupcakes and 70 muffins will cost $(60·3+70·2)=$(180+140)=$320. Now consider expenses. $(60·0.75+70·0.5)=$(45+35)=$80. This option is true.
E. 80 cupcakes and 80 muffins will cost $(80·3+80·2)=$(240+160)=$400. Now consider expenses. $(80·0.75+80·0.5)=$(60+40)=$100 (exactly $100). This option is true.
Answer: correct options are C and E.
Answer:
(-8,-10)
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite (x+8)2(x+8)² as (x+8)(x+8).
f(x)=3((x+8)(x+8))−10
Expand (x+8) (x+8) using the FOIL Method.
Apply the distributive property.
f(x)=3(x(x+8)+8(x+8))−10
Apply the distributive property.
f(x)=3(x⋅x+x⋅8+8(x+8))−10
Apply the distributive property.
Simplify and combine like terms.
Simplify each term.
Multiply x by x.
f(x)=3(x2+x⋅8+8x+8⋅8)−10
Move 8 to the left of x.
f(x)=3(x2+8⋅x+8x+8⋅8)−10
Multiply 8 by 8.
f(x)=3(x2+8x+8x+64)−10
Add 8x and 8x.
f(x)=3(x2+16x+64)−10
Apply the distributive property.
f(x)=3x2+3(16x)+3⋅64−10
Simplify.
Multiply 16 by 3.
f(x)=3x2+48x+3⋅64−10
Multiply 3 by 64.
f(x)=3x2+48x+192−10
Subtract 10 from 192.
f(x)=3x2+48x+182
The minimum of a quadratic function occurs at x=
If a is positive, the minimum value of the function is f (
).
Substitute in the values of aa and b.
x=−
x=-8
Replace the variable x with −8 in the expression.
f(−8)=3(−8)2+48(−8)+182
Y=-10
Therefore, the minimum value is (-8,-10) but if it is asking for just the y-value it would be -10.
