They will make the same amount after 10 phones sold. Before that Plan A is the better plan. After 10, Plan B is the better plan. 

You can find the point of intersection by modelling the two equations and setting them equal to each other. If x is equal to phones sold:

250 + 25x = 50x
250 = 25x
10 = x

Therefore, you make the same at 10 phones.

A 4cm×6cm rectangle sits inside a circle with a radius of 11cm. what is the shaded region?
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The area of the shaded region is 355.94\ cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of the circle minus the area of rectangle

so

A=\pi r^{2}-bh

we have

r=11\ cm

b=4\ cm

h=6\ cm

assume

\pi =3.14

substitute

A=\pi (11^{2})-4*6=121 \pi-24=121*(3.14)-24=355.94\ cm^{2}

The distance between Alphaville and Betaville is seven hundred and
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = speed × time

A car from Alphaville to Betaville is moving at a speed of sixty-two miles per hour. This means that after two and a half hours, the distance that this car would have covered is

62 × 2.5 = 155 miles

Another car from Betaville to Alphaville is moving at a speed of fifty-seven miles per hour. This means that after two and a half hours, the distance that this car would have covered is

57 × 2.5 = 142.5 miles

A and B represents Alphaville and Betaville as well as the first and second cars. The total distance covered by both cars is

155 + 142.5 = 297.5 miles

The distance between both cars after two and a half hours is

725 - 297.5 = 427.5 miles

11. Calculate the following logarithms.<br> a. log5(25)
Mama L [17]

Answer:

the logarithmic solution of log₅(25) is equal to 2

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

       log₅(25)

now using logarithmic identity

log ₓ (x) = 1  and

log (aˣ)  = x log (a)

now,

       log₅(25)

       =log₅(5²)

       =2 log₅(5)

       =2

hence, the logarithmic solution of log₅(25) is equal to 2
