"twelve decreased by twice a number" ---> 12 - 2x
"8 times the sum of number and 4" ---> 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)
12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)
-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)
x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)
That's answer.
Answer:
Minimum average cost = 743.75
Number of dvds to achieve the cost = 62.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the cost equation
C = 0.04x² − 5x + 900
To Obtian the minimum average cost ;
Find dc/dx = 0
Diffentiate cost, c it ith respect to x
dc/dx = 2(0.04x) - 5
dc/dx = 0.08x - 5 = 0
0.08x = 5
x = 5 / 0.08
x = 62.5
Substitute the value of x into C to obtain the minimum average cost
C = 0.04(62.5)² - 5(62.5) + 900
C = 743.75
It is within 5 minutes ahead or behind 5 minutes of 64 minutes because deviantion means a different face value than the original hope this helps
if i had some answer choices i could give you the exact answer but here is my best answer for you.
The slope is rise over run so it would be -1/3
