B is correct because -6.75 is smaller than -6.5
'of' means mltilply
jane=2/9 of ben
ben=3/4
jane=2/9 of 3/4
jane=2/9 times 3/4=(2*3)/(9*4)=6/36=1/6 miles
The answer is 7 1/4
Or 29/4 as an improper fraction
First, draw and label a rough sketch of an isosceles triangle. Now put in the values of pq=2x+3 and pr=9x-11
You know that the triangle is isosceles, therefore, the sides pq and pr are identical.
Now, make the equations equal to each other to find the value of x.
2x+3=9x-11
3+11=9x-2x
14=7x
14/7=x
2=x
Therefore the value of x=2.
Hope I helped :)
Q(p) = k/p^3 . . . . . . . . we want to find k
q(10) = k/10^3 = 64
k = 64,000
Revenue = q(p)*p = 64000/p^2
Cost = 150 +2q = 150 +2*64000/p^3
Profit = Revenue -Cost = 64000/p^2(1 -2/p) -150
Differentiating to find the maximum profit, we have
.. dProfit/dp = -2(64000/p^3) +6(64000/p^4) = 0
.. -1 +3/p = 0
.. p = 3
A price of $3 per unit will yield a maximum profit.
