Answer:

x = 2.5 inches. Or

x = 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Length: 7 + 2x

Width: 5 + 2x

Note that you have to add x at each end of the picture and onto each part of the width.

The entire area is 120 square inches.

Formula

L*W = Area

(2x + 7)(2x + 5) = 120

Solution

4x^2 + 10x + 14x + 35 = 120 Subtract 120 from both sides. Add xs

4x^2 + 24x + 35 - 120 = 0

4x^2 + 24x - 85 = 0 Factor

(2x + 17)(2x - 5)

2x + 17 has no meaning. It will give - 8.5 which is not possible.

2x - 5 =0

2x = 5 Divide by 2

x = 5/2

x = 2.5

Note: I don't know which one the computer is looking for.

A 6000-seat theater has tickets for sale at $25 and $40. How many tickets should be sold at each price for a sellout performa

Lena [83]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of tickets sold for $25 and y be the amount of tickets sold for $40, since there are 6000 seats theatre then;

x+y = 6000 .............. 1

If x tickets cost $25 and y tickets are sold for $40 with total revenue of $174,000, then;

25x + 40y = 174,000................ 2

From 1, x = 6000-y ............ 3

Substitute equation 3 into 2:

25x + 40y = 174,000.

25(6000-y) + 40y = 174,000

150,000-25y + 40y = 174,000

150,000+15y = 174,000

15y = 174,000-150,000

15y = 24,000

y = 24,000/15

y = 1600

Substitute y = 1600 into equation 3:

x = 6000-y

x = 6000-1600

x = 4400

<em>Hence 4400 $25 tickets and 1600 $40 tickets must be sold to generate a revenue of $174,000</em>

Answer:

y = $-2^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation of a function is in the form of y = h(x)

When the graph of this function is reflected across x-axis,

Transformed function will be,

y = -h(x)

Further reflected across y-axis, then the transformed function will be,

y = -h(-x)

By this rule,

Given equation when reflected across x-axis,

y = $-(\frac{1}{2})^{x}$

Further reflected across y-axis,

y = $-(\frac{1}{2})^{-x}$

y = $-(2^{-1})^x$

y = $-2^x$
