The water usage at a car wash is modeled by the equation W(x) = 5x3 + 9x2 − 14x + 9, where W is the amount of water in cubic fee

t and x is the number of hours the car wash is open. The owners of the car wash want to cut back their water usage during a drought and decide to close the car wash early two days a week. The amount of decrease in water used is modeled by D(x) = x3 + 2x2 + 15, where D is the amount of water in cubic feet and x is time in hours. Write a function, C(x), to model the water used by the car wash on a shorter day.

Answer:

C(x) = 4x³ + 7x² − 14x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

In a shorter day the water used by the car wash is computed as the difference between the original usage and the decrease, that is:

C(x) = W(x) - D(x)

Replacing with data:

C(x) = 5x³ + 9x² − 14x + 9 - (x³ + 2x² + 15)

C(x) = 5x³ + 9x² − 14x + 9 - x³ - 2x² - 15

C(x) = (5-1)x³ + (9-2)x² − 14x + (9-15)

C(x) = 4x³ + 7x² − 14x - 6

C(x) = 4x³+7x²-14x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the amount of water used in normal days is given by the equation;

W(x) = 5x³ +9x²-14x +9 -----(i)

The amount of decrease in water used is modeled by the equation;

D(x)= x³+2x² +15--------(ii)

To get the function C(x) that models the water used by the car wash on shorter day you subtract equation (ii) from equation(i)

 5x³ +9x²-14x +9

-  x³+2x² +15

-------------------------

4x³+7x²-14x-6

What is the positive root of the equation x 2 + 5x = 150? a0
Radda [10]
Solution for x^2+5x=150 equation:
<span>Simplifying x2 + 5x = 150 Reorder the terms: 5x + x2 = 150 Solving 5x + x2 = 150 Solving for variable 'x'. Reorder the terms: -150 + 5x + x2 = 150 + -150 Combine like terms: 150 + -150 = 0 -150 + 5x + x2 = 0 Factor a trinomial. (-15 + -1x)(10 + -1x) = 0 Subproblem 1Set the factor '(-15 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying -15 + -1x = 0 Solving -15 + -1x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '15' to each side of the equation. -15 + 15 + -1x = 0 + 15 Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + 15 -1x = 0 + 15 Combine like terms: 0 + 15 = 15 -1x = 15 Divide each side by '-1'. x = -15 Simplifying x = -15 Subproblem 2Set the factor '(10 + -1x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying 10 + -1x = 0 Solving 10 + -1x = 0 Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-10' to each side of the equation. 10 + -10 + -1x = 0 + -10 Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0 0 + -1x = 0 + -10 -1x = 0 + -10 Combine like terms: 0 + -10 = -10 -1x = -10 Divide each side by '-1'. x = 10 Simplifying x = 10Solutionx = {-15, 10}</span>
