Answer:

Sam is 12, sam's brother is 19, and sam's mom is 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

First the equation you need to use is S+7+S+3S-4=63(the variable s represents Sam), you combine the like terms which then equals 5S+3=63, then you use inverse operations. Subtract 3 on both sides, 5S=60, then you divide on both sides which equals S equals 12. Then you just plug in the number, S is Sam which means Sam's 12. Then 12+7 which is 19, Sam's brother. Then 3 times 12 minus 4 is 32. And if you check to make sure, 12+19+32 does equal 63.

The profits in hundreds of dollars, P(c), that a company can make from a product is modeled by a function of the price, c, they
Valentin [98]

Answer:

6400

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the profit function ;

P(c) = –20c2 + 320c + 5,120

The maximum value is given by :

f(h) ; where, h = - b /2a

From P(C) ; a = - 20 ; b = 320

h = - b / 2a = - 320 / 2(-20) = - 320 / 40 = 8

c = h

P(8) = –20(8)² + 320(8) + 5,120

P(8) = - 1280 + 2560 + 5120

= 6400

Convert each mixed number to an improper fraction

--------------------------------------------
Convert 6&1/2 to an improper fraction

6&1/2 = (6*2+1)/2
6&1/2 = (12+1)/2
6&1/2 = 13/2
--------------------------------------------
Do the same for 9&1/4

9&1/4 = (9*4+1)/4
9&1/4 = (36+1)/4
9&1/4 = 37/4
--------------------------------------------
Now multiply the improper fractions 13/2 and 37/4. Multiply straight across

(13/2)*(37/4) = (13*37)/(2*4)
(13/2)*(37/4) = 481/8
--------------------------------------------
The last step is to use long division to find the mixed number equivalent of 481/8

Or we an say 
60*8 = 480
So 60*8+1 = 480+1
which means 
481/8 = (480+1)/8 = 480/8+1/8 = 60&1/8

Making the final answer to be choice C

Another way to get the answer is to convert 481/8 into a decimal to get 60.125 and then convert that back to a mixed number. You should get 60&1/8
