Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
If first odd number is x
THen next consecutive odd number is x + 2
Next one is x + 4
Now, we can write the word problem as:
Now we solve:
So, x is less than or equal to 9, so it can be
9, 7, 5 .....
What is the maximum value of the lowest number (x)?? It is 9
Answer:
A. 356
Step-by-step explanation:
First find expressions for the other two dimensions by dividing the expression for the volume by the expression for the width via either long or synthetic division. We will use synthetic division here. Hence
-3| 1 5 -57 -189
| -3 -6 189
___________
1 2 -63 0
So we have a remainder of 0 which confirms that (x+3) is a factor of
(x³ + 5x² -57x - 189). The quotient we obtained is
q(x) = x² + 2x -63 = (x + 9)(x - 7)
Thus (x + 9) and (x - 7) are possible expressions for height and depth. However, we were told that the height is greater than the depth, thus
(x + 9) represents the height and (x - 7) represents the depth.
We were given that the width (x + 3) is 15 in. Thus x = 12.
∴ height is 12 + 9 or 21 in. and the depth is 12 - 7 or 5 in.
Answer:
$360
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected loss in a year is ...
0.001 × $60,000 + 0.01 × (50%·$60,000)
= $60 + 300
= $360
In order to break even, the company should charge $360 per year.
