P(x) that will be R(x) - C(x):

Note the use of parentheses! Without them we would not realize that both the 21 and the 98 should be subtracted.
Now that we have our profit function, we can see that:<span>Its graph will be a parabola because of the squared term.The parabola will open downward because of the negative coefficient, -2, in front of the squared term.The highest point (which would be the maximum profit) on the downward parabola would be the vertex of the parabola.</span>From the above we now know that we want to find the vertex of the profit parabola.

The x coordinate of the vertex of a parabola will be -b/2a where the "b" is the coefficient of the x term and the "a" is the coefficient of the x squared term. From p(x)= -2^2 + 34x-98


we can see that your "a" is -2 and your "b" is 34. So the x coordinate of the vertex (which is where the maximum profit is) will be: -34/-2=17

Which equations are true for x = –2 and x = 2? Select two options
yulyashka [42]

The equations that are true for x = -2 and x = 2 are x^{2} -4 = 0 and 4x^{2} = 16

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is a mathematical statement that establishes the equality of two quantities.

Analysis:

Testing the equation x2 - 4 = 0

for x = 2,  (2)^{2} - 4 = 4-4 = 0

for x = -2 = (-2)2 - 4 = 4-4 = 0

Therefore x2-4 = 0 is true

Testing for 4x2 =16

for x  = 2 , 4(2) ^2 = 4x4 = 16

for x = -2 4(-2)^2 = 4(4) = 16.

All other equations are not true except these two.

The equation Ax - 4y + 2 = 0 represents a linear relation.
kupik [55]

Answer:

The value of A is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the value of A if the point (6,5) belongs to that linear relation, we need to apply the coordinates for that point on the equation and solve it for A. This is shown below:

A*x  - 4*y + 2 = 0

A*(6) - 4*(5) + 2 = 0

6*A -20 + 2 = 0

6*A - 18 = 0

6*A = 18

A = 18 / 6

A = 3

The value of A is 3.
