If x - Q = 100, then Q = 100 + x

Substitute this into the following equation:

F(x) = x*Q <----this is the eqation for which you want to find a minimum

F(x) = x *(100 + x)

F(x) = x^2 + 100x

Graph that equation, and look for its lowest point. The lowest point is at x = -50, f(x) = -2500

Since Q = 100 + x, then Q = 100 + (-50) = 50

50 - (-50) = 100, and the product--being -2500--is a minimum.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE IN MINUTES OF MEDIAN COLLECTION TIMES BEFORE AND AFTER THE WELL WAS INSTALLED
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The difference in minutes of median collection times before and after the well was installed is: 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Before--

Clearly after looking at the whisker-box plot we could observe that the middle line in the box represents the median of the data.

Hence we have :

Median(M)=53

After--

Similarly looking at the box-whisker plot we could observe that the line in the box is at 28.

Hence, Median of the box after installing the well is(M'): 28

Hence,

The difference in Median is calculated as:

M'-M

= 53-28

= 25

Hence, the difference in minutes of median collection is:

25 minutes.

The figure is made up of a cylinder and a cone.
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

51*pi or 160.221

Step-by-step explanation:

total volume = volume of a cone + volume of a cylinder

total volume = 1/3* pi*r^2* height(of cone) + pi* r^2 *height(of cylinder)

total volume = 1/3 * pi * 3^2 * 5 + pi * 3^2 * 4

total volume = 51*pi = 160.221

Kryger [21]

Answer: Algebraically, linear functions are polynomial functions with a highest exponent of one, exponential functions have a variable in the exponent, and quadratic functions are polynomial functions with a highest exponent of two.

Step-by-step explanation: A linear equation is a type of equation in which the graph is straight and each term is a constant or a power of a constant. The formula is y=mx+b. Quadratic equations are similar to exponential equations by having a curve in the graph.

How do I find, x and y?
geniusboy [140]
Since this is a quadrilateral, all angles together = 360°. The angle that is 128° is congruent to angle y, so y=128°. Angle x and y are supplementary, meaning together they equal 180°, or x+y=180°. So x=180°-y. Which means, x=180°-128°=52°.
