Answer:  The percentage increase of the number of guests from the first party to the second party is 24 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem we have to calculate the increase of guests in numbers.

31 guests from the second party

25 guests from the first party

31-25 = 6

Now, we have to calculate the percentage of that number.

25 / 6 =  0.24

And finally, multiply it by 100 to express in percentage

0.24 x 100 = 24 %

The percentage increase of the number of guests from the first party to the second party is 24 %.

Feel free to ask for more if it´s necessary or if you did not understand something .

Answer:

300 cars must be made to minimize the unit cost

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c

It's vertex is the point (x_{v}, y_{v})

In which

x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}

y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}

Where

\Delta = b^2-4ac

If a>0, the vertex is a minimum point, that is, the minimum value happens at x_{v}, and it's value is y_{v}.

The cost of producing x cars is given by:

C(x) = 0.7x^2 - 420x + 81610

So a quadratic equation with a = 0.7, b = -420, c = 81610

How many cars must be made to minimize the unit cost?

This is the xvalue of the vertex. So

x_v = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{-420}{2*0.7} = \frac{420}{1.4} = 300

300 cars must be made to minimize the unit cost

Use the given information to find the new price. Round to the nearest cent.
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$15

Step-by-step explanation:

1. multiply the original price (20) by the discount rate (25% or 0.25)

    20 * 0.25 = $5 off

2. subtract the discount ($5) from the original price ($20)

    20-5 = 15
