In this case if x<100 George will be losing money.  So he will only earn a profit when he sells more than 100 DVDs.  Essentially (x-100) represents his break-even point.

Answer:

C)  

That in order to make zero profit he must sell 100 DVDs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is one of the factors then it will meet the zero product property. Since x stands for the number of DVDS he sells then the profit must be 0 when this factor = 0. Therefore, (x - 100) means That in order to make zero profit he must sell 100 DVDs.

It is estimated that light takes 110,000 years to travel the full distance across our galaxy
stepladder [879]
\bf \stackrel{light~speed}{3.0\times 10^8}ms^{-1}\implies \stackrel{light~speed}{3.0\times 10^8}~\frac{m}{s}\implies 300,000,000~\frac{m}{s}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\textit{how many seconds in a minute?}\qquad 60&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{how many seconds in }\stackrel{1~hr}{60~minutes?}\qquad 60\cdot 60&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{how many seconds in }\stackrel{1~day}{24~hrs}?\qquad 60\cdot 60\cdot 24&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{how many seconds in }\stackrel{1~year}{365~days}?\qquad 60\cdot 60\cdot 24\cdot 365

now, it takes 1 second for light to travel 300,000,000 meters.

if we know it takes light 1 second to go 300 million meters, then in 365 days or a year, or 60*60*24*365 seconds, it will then travels

300,000,000 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 365 meters in 1 year,

how about in 110,000 years, how many meters has it travelled?

300,000,000 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 365 * 110,000   that many meters.

we know she travels the Milky Way in 110,000 years  or 60 * 60 * 24 * 365 * 110,000  seconds

and we know that 110,000 years is 3468960000000 seconds, so

if it travels 300000000 meters in only 1 second, in 3468960000000 seconds, it will travel then (300000000) * (3468960000000) meters

or  1040688000000000000000 meters.

What is the solution of the equation when solved over the complex numbers?<br><br> x^2+27=0
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

(0,27)

Step-by-step explanation:

x2 + 27 = 0

Solutions based on quadratic formula:

x1  

= −0 − √ 02 − 4×1×27   2×1 = 0 − 6 × √ 3 i   2 ≈ −5.196152i

x2  

= −0 + √ 02 − 4×1×27   2×1 = 0 + 6 × √ 3 i  2 ≈ 5.196152i

Extrema:

Min = (0, 27)

olya-2409 [2.1K]
180(n-2) = 180(6-2) = 180(4)  = 720
sum of interior angles = 720
x = 720 - ( 90+90+152+150+91)
x = 720 - 573
x = 147

answer x  = 147
