1.
If no changes are made, the school has a revenue of :

625*400$/student=250,000$

2.
Assume that the school decides to reduce n*20$.

This means that there will be an increase of 50n students.

Thus there are 625 + 50n students, each paying 400-20n dollars.

The revenue is: 

(625 + 50n)*(400-20n)=12.5(50+n)*20(20-n)=250(n+50)(20-n)

3.

check the options that we have, 

a fee of $380 means that n=1, thus 

250(n+50)(20-n)=250(1+50)(20-1)=242,250   ($)


a fee of $320 means that n=4, thus

 250(n+50)(20-n)=250(4+50)(20-4)=216,000    ($)


the other options cannot be considered since neither 400-275, nor 400-325 are multiples of 20.

Conclusion, neither of the possible choices should be applied, since they will reduce the revenue.

Solve the equation on the interval [0, 2pi): 12cos^2 x-9=0<br><br><br> What to do?
siniylev [52]

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=\dfrac{\pi}{6}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{5\pi}{6}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{7\pi}{6}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{11\pi}{6}}

Step-by-step explanation:

12\cos^2x-9=0\qquad\text{add 9 to both sides}\\\\12\cos^2x=9\qquad\text{divide both sides by 12}\\\\\cos^2x=\dfrac{9}{12}\\\\\cos^2x=\dfrac{9:3}{12:3}\\\\\cos^2x=\dfrac{3}{4}\to\cos x=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{3}{4}}\\\\\cos x=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2}\\\\\text{Look at the picture}\\\\x=\dfrac{\pi}{6}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{5\pi}{6}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{7\pi}{6}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{11\pi}{6}

Area: 3x times 3y

Step-by-step explanation:

x= original length of garden

y= original width of garden
