Answer:
$ 22.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
Price charged for each box of seeds = x
Profit gained from from selling boxes of seeds = p
The equation of profit is modeled as
P(x) = 0.5x² + 36x - 179
As per given information if the fundraisers make a profit of $379 then find the minimum price charged for each box of seed.
Now our above equation becomes
379 = -0.5x² + 36x - 179
Simplifying
379+179 = -0.5x² + 36x
558 = -0.5x² + 36x
0.5x² - 36x + 558 =0
multipying both sides of equation by 2
2(0.5x² - 36x + 558) = 2x0
x² - 72x +1116 = 0
Using quadratic formula we get the following factors
x= 49.4 or x= 22.60
As we can the smalles value is 22.6
So, they can charge 22.6 dollar for each bag of seeds in order to get profit of 379 dollars.
X and y are the numbers
y>x
sum (addition) of twice a number (2x) and larger number (y) is (=) 145
2x+y=145
difference between them is 55 (y is bigger so it would be x is subtracted from y)
y-x=55
so the equations are
2x+y=145 and
y-x=55
we could add x to both sides in the 2nd equation to obtain
y=x+55, but that doesn't really represent that the difference is 55, though they are the same euation
so I would say C and D only
Answer:
A. (4,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x -5y = 3
x -3y = 1
Change the equation to isolate a variable so you can substitute it in the other one.
x = 1+3y so
2(1+3y) -5y = 3
2 + 6y -5y =3
2 + y = 3
y=1
Back to the easy equation we isolated
x = 1+3(1)
x= 4
(4,1) is a point where x=4 and y=1

Hi!
(l = Lenny
m = Max)
Lenny is 3 times as old as Max.
3m = l
When you subtract Max's age from Lenny's age, you get 24.
L - m = 24
Put in the value of l.
3m - m = 24
There is our equation.
Now solve
2m = 24
2m/2 = 24/2
m = 12
3 * 12 = l
36 = l
The equation is 3m - m = 24
Max is 12 and Lenny is 36.
Hope this helps! :)

Skyler would have $128.
Multiply 18 by 6 and then add 20.
