Maximizing profit: Suppose you own a tour bus and you book groups of 20 to 70 people for a day tour. The cost per person is $30

minus $0.25 for every ticket sold. If gas and other misc costs are $200, how many tickects should you sell to maximize your profit? Treat the number of tickets as a nonnegative real number.

Revenue:
R ( x ) / x = 30 - 0.25 x
R ( x ) = 30 x - 0.25 x²
Profit:
P ( x ) = 30 x - 0.25 x² - 200
P ` ( x ) = 30 - 0.5 x
30 - 0.5 x = 0
0.5 x = 30
x = 60
P max = 30 · 60 - 0.25 · 3600 - 200 = $700
Answer:
I should sell 60 tickets to maximize the profit.

Law of sines: How many distinct triangles can be formed for which m∠A = 75°, a = 2, and b = 3?
butalik [34]
According to the law of sines:

\frac{a}{sin(A)} = \frac{b}{sin(B)}

Using the given values, we can find the angle B and find the number of possible triangles that can be formed.

\frac{2}{sin(75)}= \frac{3}{sin(B)} \\  \\ 
sin(B)=3* \frac{sin75}{2}  \\  \\ 
sin(B)=1.45 \\  \\ 
B=sin^{-1} (1.45)

The range of sin is from -1 to 1. The above expression does not yield any possible value of B, as sin of no angle can be equal to 1.45.

Therefore, we can conclude that no triangle exists with the given conditions.

Show the region which satisfies simultaneously the inequalities 2x+3y≤8, x-2y≥-3, x≥0, y≥0
Verizon [17]
The first thing you should do is graph the following lines
 2x + 3y = 8
 x-2y = -3
 x = 0
 y = 0
 After you have graphed them, you should proceed to evaluate points in the xy plane that meet the following restrictions:
 2x + 3y≤8, x-2y≥-3, x≥0, y≥0
 The resulting region is the region "R" shown in the attached graph.

An angle measures 32° more than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

29° ; 61°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one angle  = x°

Other angle = (x + 32)°

x + x + 32 = 90   {given they are complementary}

2x + 32 = 90

2x = 90 -32

2x = 58

x = 58/2

x = 29

One angle  = 29°

Other angle = 29 + 32 = 61°
