The sum of two numbers is 150 and the ratio of the same two numbers is 3 to 2 . find the bigger number
krek1111 [17]
Ratio- 3: 2

3x + 2x = 150
5x = 150
x = 30

3x is the larger number so plug in the x value with 30.

3x
3 x 30
90

The larger number is 90.

Hope I helped.. ^^

Widget Wonders produces widgets. They
navik [9.2K]
Find the total cost of producing 5 widgets. Widget Wonders produces widgets. They have found that the cost, c(x), of making x widgets is a quadratic function in terms of x. The company also discovered that it costs $15.50 to produce 3 widgets, $23.50 to produce 7 widgets, and $56 to produce 12 widgets.
OK...so we have
a(7)^2 + b(7) + c = 23.50 → 49a + 7b + c = 23.50 (1)
a(3)^2 + b(3) + c = 15.50 → 9a + 3b + c = 15.50 subtracting the second equation from the first, we have
40a + 4b = 8 → 10a + b = 2 (2)
Also
a(12)^2 + b(12) + c = 56 → 144a + 12b + c = 56 and subtracting (1) from this gives us
95a + 5b = 32.50
And using(2) we have
95a + 5b = 32.50 (3)
10a + b = 2.00 multiplying the second equation by -5 and adding this to (3) ,we have
45a = 22.50 divide both sides by 45 and a = 1/2 and using (2) to find b, we have
10(1/2) + b = 2
5 + b = 2 b = -3
And we can use 9a + 3b + c = 15.50 to find "c"
9(1/2) + 3(-3) + c = 15.50
9/2 - 9 + c = 15.50
-4.5 + c = 15.50
c = 20
So our function is
c(x) = (1/2)x^2 - (3)x + 20
And the cost to produce 5 widgets is = $17.50

Find the axis of symmetry of the parabola below <br> A-Y=2<br> B-X=2<br> C-X=1<br> D-Y=1
victus00 [196]
The axis of symmetry is given by the line x = a (where a is equivalent to the x-value of the turning point of the parabola) and can be viewed as the line about which the parabola is symmetric; in this case, the parabola has an axis of symmetry of x = 2, thus the answer is B

Question in picture solve
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

x= 13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x + 9

f(x) = 36

Set the 2 equations equal to each other;

2x + 9 = 36

Subtract 9 from both sides;

2x = 27

Divide both sides by 2;

x = 13.5

<em>Check:</em>

f(x) = 2x + 9

f(13.5) = 2(13.5) + 9= 27 + 9 = 36
