Answer:

45 dozen must be sold to make a profit of $90

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of 1 dozen of flowers = $3

Selling price  of 1 dozen of flowers = $5

Profit = SP - CP

Profit = $5-$3

Profit = $2

So, Profit per dozen = $90

No. of dozen must be sold to make a profit of $90 = \frac{90}{2}=45

Hence 45 dozen must be sold to make a profit of $90

A family has two cars. The first car has a fuel efficuency of 15 miles per gallon of gas and the second has a fuel efficiency of
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

x= 35 gallons consumed by 1st car

and y= 40  gallons consumed by 2nd car

Step-by-step explanation:

Fuel efficiency of 1st car = 15 miles per gallon

Fuel efficiency of 2nd car = 35 miles per gallon

Let x= gallons consumed by 1st car

and y= gallons consumed by 2nd car

Total gallons consumed by both cars = 75

so, we can write

x + y = 75

Miles covered by both cars = 1925 miles

and we know, Fuel efficiency of 1st car = 15 miles per gallon

Fuel efficiency of 2nd car = 35 miles per gallon

we can write the equation as

15 x + 35 y = 1925

where x and y are gallons consumed by 1st and 2nd car.

We have two equation now,

x + y = 75                   (1)

15 x + 35 y = 1925     (2)

Multiplying eq(1) with 15 and subtracting eq (1) and 2

15 x + 15 y = 1125

15 x + 35 y = 1925

-       -            -

_______________

0 - 20 y = -800

y= -800 / -20

y = 40

Putting value of y in equation 1

x + y = 75

x + 40 = 75

x= 75 - 40

x = 35

x= 35 gallons consumed by 1st car

and y= 40  gallons consumed by 2nd car

The total number of calories for 18 cups of milk is 1620 calories.
If two cups of milk is 180 calories then divide 180/2 to find the unit rate.
Then multiply 90 by the number of cups (18) and then you get the total number of calories for that many drinks.

Consider the surface f (x comma y comma z )f(x,y,z)equals=negative 2 x squared plus 2 y squared minus 3 z squared plus 3 equals
trapecia [35]

Answer:

a) (8,8,-6)

b) 4x+4y+3z = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

The surface is given by the equation  

f(x,y,z) = 0 where

f(x,y,z)=-2x^2+2y^2-3z^2+3

The gradient of this function is the vector

(\frac{\partial f}{\partial x},\frac{\partial f}{\partial y},\frac{\partial f}{\partial z})=(-4x,4y,-6z)

If we evaluate it in the point P = (-2,2,1) we obtain the point

(8,8,-6)

b)

The vectors with their tails at P are of the form  

(-2,2,1)-(x,y,z) = (-2-x, 2-y, 1-z)

as they must be orthogonal to the gradient, they must be orthogonal to the vector (8,8,6) so their inner product is 0

(-2-x,2-y,1-z)\cdot(8,8,6)=0\Rightarrow -16-8x+16-8y+6-6z=0\Rightarrow 4x+4y+3z=-3

and the equation of the desired plane is

4x+4y+3z = -3
