A certain company manufactures skateboards and rollerskates. It takes them 2 units of labor and 1 unit of materials to produce a

Alisiya [41]

Answer: The company should produce 7 skateboards and 16 rollerskates in order to maximize profit.

Step-by-step explanation: Let the skateboards be represented by s and the rollerskates be represented by r. The available amount of labour is 30 units, and to produce a skateboard requires 2 units of labor while to produce a rollerskate requires 1 unit. This can be expressed as follows;

2s + r = 30 ------(1)

Also there are 40 units of materials available, and to produce a skateboard requires 1 unit while a rollerskate requires 2 units. This too can be expressed as follows;

s + 2r = 40 ------(2)

With the pair of simultaneous equations we can now solve for both variables by using the substitution method as follows;

In equation (1), let r = 30 - 2s

Substitute for r into equation (2)

s + 2(30 - 2s) = 40

s + 60 - 4s = 40

Collect like terms,

s - 4s = 40 - 60

-3s = -20

Divide both sides of the equation by -3

s = 6.67

(Rounded up to the nearest whole number, s = 7)

Substitute for the value of s into equation (1)

2s + r = 30

2(7) + r = 30

14 + r = 30

Subtract 14 from both sides of the equation

r = 16

Therefore in order to maximize profit, the company should produce 7 skateboards and 16 rollerskates.

Will give brainliest!!!!<br>Explain how solving -7y > 161 is different from solving 7y > -161.

Jlenok [28]

To solve -7y > 161, we divide both sides by -7 and we get y < -23. The inequality sign flipped because we divided both sides by a negative number.

To solve 7y > -161, we divide both sides by 7 and it leads to y > -23. The inequality sign does not flip in this case, because we are not dividing both sides by a negative number.

The similarities is that we end up with -23 on the right side, but the inequality signs are different.

Paul has 12 coins in his pocket, consisting entirely of dimes and quarters. If he has a total of 195 cents in coins, how many co

anyanavicka [17]

Let x be the number of dimes

and y be the number of quarters

Total number of coins = 12

So number of dimes + number of quarters = total number of coins

x + y = 12 ---------> equation 1

We know, 1 Quarter = 25 cents, 1 Dime = 10 cents, total cents = 196

y quarters = 25y cents , x dimes = 10x cents

x dimes + y quarters = 195 cents

10x + 25y = 195 -----------> equation 2

Now solve both equations

x + y =12, we solve for y by subtracting x on both sides

y = 12-x

Now substitute y in second equation

10x + 25(12-x) = 195

10x + 300 -25x = 195 (combine like terms)

-15x + 300 = 195 (subtract 300 on both sides)

-15x = -105 ( divide by -15)

x=7

y= 12-x

y=12-7 = 5

The number of dimes = 7

Number of quarters = 5

I need awnsers please

romanna [79]

$y=f(x) =12\sqrt x\\\\\text{Replace x with y and then solve for y:}\\ \\~~~~~~~x = 12\sqrt y\\\\\implies \sqrt y = \dfrac{x}{12}\\ \\\implies y = \dfrac{x^2}{144}\\\\\implies f^{-1} (x) = \dfrac{x^2}{144} \\\\\text{Hence the inverse of the function is}~ \dfrac{x^2}{144}$
