Answer:

$59

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the revenue will be maximum when $ x is increased in the ticket price.

So, the final ticket price is $(18 + x) and attendance in the concert will be (500 - 5x)

So, revenue R = (18 + x) (500 - 5x) = 9000 + 410x - 5x².......... (1)

Condition for R to be maximum is \frac{dR}{dx}  =0

So, differentiating equation (1) with respect to x on both sides

\frac{dR}{dx} =410-10x = 0

⇒ x = 41

So, the ticket price for maximum revenue is $(18 + 41) = $59 (Answer)

Let a and ß be first quadrant angles with cos(a)=
Finger [1]

Since both α and β are in the first quadrant, we know each of cos(α), sin(α), cos(β), and sin(β) are positive. So when we invoke the Pythagorean identity,

sin²(x) + cos²(x) = 1

we always take the positive square root when solving for either sin(x) or cos(x).

Given that cos(α) = √11/7 and sin(β) = √11/4, we find

sin(α) = √(1 - cos²(α)) = √38/7

cos(β) = √(1 - sin²(β)) = √5/4

Now, recall the sum identity for cosine,

cos(x + y) = cos(x) cos(y) - sin(x) sin(y)

It follows that

cos(α + β) = √11/7 × √5/4 - √38/7 × √11/4 = (√55 - √418)/28

Evan spent 20 hours doing homework last week. This week he spent 25 hours doing homework. He says that he spent 125% more time d
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

yes he is correct. he spent 125% more time

Step-by-step explanation:

his original time spent  was 20 hours

he spent a new time which is 25 hours

increased time = 25- 20 = 5 hours

% increase = increase/ original ×100%

%increase = 5/ 20 ×100%

= 1/4 ×100%

= 25%

total increment = 100 + 25 =125%
