Is there a graph or something?
CONTRACT PROFIT, (P)*
OF PROFIT...(P)*. TO BREAK EVEN...LOSS, (P)* OF LOSS
Southeast $45,000, 50% 30% $6,000, 20%
Southwest $60,000, 35% 40% $10,000, 25%
California $112,000, 20% 40% $40,000, 40%
I think that the best contract would be with SOUTHEAST. It probability of having a profit is higher than the other two at 50% while its probability of incurring a loss is lesser than the other two at 20%.
Despite the bigger value of its contract profit of the other two, these value will still be greatly affected by its corresponding probabilities.
a. Answer: D: (∞, ∞)
R: (-∞, ∞)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Theoretical domain is the domain of the equation (without an understanding of what the x-variable represents).
Theoretical range is the range of the equation given the domain.
c(p) = 25p
There are no restrictions on the p so the theoretical domain is All Real Numbers.
Multiplying 25 by All Real Numbers results in the range being All Real Numbers.

b. Answer: D: (0, 200)
R: (0, 5000)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Practical domain is the domain of the equation WITH an understanding of what the x-variable represents.
Practical range is the range of the equation given the practical values of the domain.
The problem states that p represents the number of cups. Since we can't have a negative amount of cups, p ≥ 0. The problem also states that Bonnie will purchase a maximum of 200 cups. So, 0 ≤ p ≤ 200
The range is 25p → (25)0 ≤ (25)p ≤ (25)200
→ 0 ≤ 25p ≤ 5000
b) D: (0, 200)
R: (0, 5000)
Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of "another side." Then "one side" is ...
2x -10 . . . . . . 10 feet shorter than twice another side
The sum of these two side lengths is half the perimeter, so is ...
x + (2x -10) = 14 . . . . . two sides are half the perimeter
3x = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10, collect terms
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x
(2x -10) = 2·8 -10 = 6 . . . . find "one side"
We have found "one side" to be 6 feet long, and "another side" to be 8 feet long. The shorter side is 6 feet.
