They meet their median goal because if you rearrange the numbers from lowest to highest, the median mileage of their line of cars would be 19,23,25,26,29. There are five numbers of car mileages therefore 25 would serve as the median for all five mileages.
Answer:
The number is 42.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the unknown number.
"two less than a number" is x - 2
Quotient means the result of a division.
(x - 2)/5 = 8
Multiply both sides by 5.
x - 2 = 40
Add 2 to both sides.
x = 42
Answer: The number is 42.
Check.
Start with 42. 2 less than 42 is 40. The quotient of 40 and 5 is 40/5 which is 8. The answer is correct.
Since you are not distributing at all, you can ignore the parenthesis :)
When ignoring the parenthesis your equation is
18x + 11 - 4x
Then just combine like terms :)
14x + 11
Your answer is C.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
5000
Step-by-step explanation:
In vertex form, the cost function is ...
C(x) = 3(x² -10x) +175 = 3(x² -10x +25) +175 -3(25)
C(x) = 3(x -5)² +100
The vertex is at x=5, so the cost function will be minimized when 5000 speed boats are produced.
