Answer:

i hope this is what you are looking for

Step-by-step explanation:

liz is 36

rylan is 75

36*2 is 72

72+3 is 75

y= x (rylan's age)-3 /2

75-3=72

72/2

36

Ms Harris has a taco stand. She has found that her daily costs are approximated by the following equation:

mrs_skeptik [129]

<span>a. find the number of units of tacos she must sell to minimise her cost.
</span>to find a minimum we need to find the function derivative and make it equal to zero:
dc/dx = 2x - 40 = 0
2x = 40
x = 20
therefore to minimize the cost, she needs to sell 20 units of tacos

<span>b. find the minimum cost.
</span>that can be done by substituting the previous result, 20 tacos, in the original equation:
<span>C(x) = x^2 - 40x + 610
</span>C(20) = (20)^2 - 40(20) + <span>610
</span>= 400 - 800 + 610
= 210
the minimum cost will be 210 dollars

Math question picture attached

babunello [35]

To find the slope, you use the slope formula (m):

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ and plug in the two points

(-3, 4) = (x₁, y₁)

(2, -1) = (x₂, y₂)

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\frac{-1-4}{2-(-3)}$ [two negatives cancel each other out and become positive]

$m=\frac{-1-4}{2+3}$

$m=\frac{-5}{5}$

m = -1 The slope is -1

Maybe it’s y=1x-2. I hope this helps since we have no clue what the x is in the question we just assume it’s own

Determine the value of a if one solution to the quadratic equation is x equals 5 + 3/2 I

Sindrei [870]

The value of a is $\frac{-9}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>1. Determine the other solution of x</u>

If one value is 5 + $\frac{3}{2}$ then the other value is 5 - $\frac{3}{2}$

<u>2. Use reverse technique to find the equation</u>

(5 + $\frac{3}{2}$ ) (5 - $\frac{3}{2}$ ) = 0

25 - $\frac{-15}{2}$ + $\frac{15}{2}$ - $\frac{9x^{2} }{4}$ = 0

- $\frac{9x^{2} }{4}$ + 25 = 0

<u>3. The equation is</u> - $\frac{9x^{2} }{4}$ + 25 = 0

<u>4. Find the value of a</u>

a is the number with the variable $x^{2}$ therefore it is - $\frac{9}{4}$
