For this case we have the following equations:
revenue: y = 4x
cost: y = 1 / 2x + 280
We must match both equations:
4x = 1 / 2x + 280
From here, we clear the value of x:
4x-1 / 2x = 280
7 / 2x = 280
x = (2/7) * (280)
x = 80
Answer:
jason needs to sell 80 posters so that the cost and revenue are equal
Its D because vertical angles are right across from each other!
slope=y2-y1/x2-x1
5-2/3-2
denominator will show 3-2
Answer:
x= -2 and (x+3)=0, x= -3
Step-by-step explanation:
"The sum of a number" well we do not know what the number is right, so let's call the number x. So we know we have x and we are adding it to something because it says sum. What are we adding it to? "5 times its reciprocal". A reciprocal of a number is equal to 1/the number. So the reciprocal of x is just 1/x. But we want 5 times this so multiply by 5. So now we have x + 5(1/x). Now we need to set it equal to something to be able to solve it. The problem says the sum of a number and 5 times its reciprocal is -6, so x + 5(1/x) = -6. Now just use order of operations to solve for x. First multiply: x + 5/x =-6. Then the next stperfect is harder because we want to get x by itself but we have x + 5/x. A trick you can do here is multiply the whole equation by x. This cancels out the fraction for us: x(x + 5/x) = -6(x) becomes x^2 +5 = -6x. Now we have a quadratic equation, to solve this you have to Factor or use the quadratic formula. I'll try factoring: first we need all of the terms on one side: x^2 +5x +6 =0. Now we need factors of 6 that add or subtract to 5. There are a couple of options here we could use 6 and -1 or 2 and 3. 6 and -1 would not work because both signs in the equation are plus which means we need our factors to both be positive, also if you tried 6 and -1 and then foiled out the factors to check it, it would not work. So 2 and 3 have to be the factors so the equations equals (x+2)(x+3)=0. Now we set each factor equal to zero and solve for x: (x+2)=0, x= -2 and (x+3)=0, x= -3. Those are the two numbers that would work! Hope this helps!!
In this problem, I would say 7.16 to the nearest 10th would be 7.20 because 16 is closer to 20 then 10.
