The quadratic function y = –10x2 + 160x – 430 models a store’s daily profit (y) for selling a T-shirt priced at x dollars. What

equation do you need to solve to find the selling price or prices that would generate $50 in daily profit? What method would you use to solve the equation? Justify your choice.

Daily profit, y, as a function of T-shirts sold, x, is
y = -10x² + 160x - 430

In order to generate $50 in daily profits, the number of T-shirts sold is determined by solving the equation
-10x² + 160x - 430 = 50

Divide through by -10.
x² - 16x + 43 = -5
x² - 16x + 48 = 0

Answer:
This quadratic equation can be solved by factorization.

Explanation:
Note that
48 = 4 x 12, and
4 + 12 = 16
Therefore
x² - 16x + 48 = (x - 4 )(x - 12 ) = 0
The solutions are
x - 4 = 0  => x = 4, and
x - 12 = 0  => x = 12

Replace y in the equation with 50: (50 = -10x2 +160x - 430) Use factoring to solve the equation. After writing the equation in standard form and dividing each side by -10, it is easy to factor as 0 = (x - 4)(x - 12).

Find the values forX, Y, and Z so that all the following statements are true.
kvasek [131]

Answer:

x = -36, y = 6, z = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The requirement x/z = -z means x = -z².

The requirement x/y = z means x = yz.

These two requirements together mean yz = -z², or y = -z.

The requirements that z/2 and z/3 are integers mean that z is a multiple of 2·3 = 6. The smallest magnitude non-zero multiple is z=-6 (since we also require z < -z).

Using z=-6, we have x = -z² = -36; y = -(-6) = 6.

For some positive integer n, ...

... x = -36n², y = 6n, z = -6n.

Construct a 99​% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion with a sample proportion equal to 0.36 and a sample s
vivado [14]

Using the z-distribution, the 99​% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion is: (0.2364, 0.4836).

<h3>What is a confidence interval of proportions?</h3>

A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which:

  • \pi is the sample proportion.
  • z is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.

In this problem, we have a 99% confidence level, hence\alpha = 0.99, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of \frac{1+0.99}{2} = 0.995, so the critical value is z = 2.575.

The estimate and the sample size are given by:

\pi = 0.36, n = 100.

Then the bounds of the interval are:

  • \pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.36 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.36(0.64)}{100}} = 0.2364
  • \pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.36 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.36(0.64)}{100}} = 0.4836

The 99​% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion is: (0.2364, 0.4836).

What else would need to be congruent to show that A ABC= AXYZ by ASA?
fredd [130]

Answer:

D. AC ≅ XZ

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove that two triangles are congruent by the Angle-Side-Angle theorem, both triangles must have two corresponding angles that are congruent to each other in each triangle, and also a corresponding included side in each triangle that are congruent.

Thus, we are given that,

<X ≅ <A and <Z ≅ <C, therefore, what is needed is a corresponding included angle in each triangle that are congruent to each other, which are,

AC and XZ

Therefore, what is needed is:

AC ≅ XZ
