The ratio of the angles in a triangle is 7:10:3 what is the measure of the smallest angle?

Mario has a business selling muffins. Let x be the price of a muffin. Then, the profit P for Mario’s business is given by p(x)=-

Rufina [12.5K]

To make a positive profit p(x)>0 we need to make:
$-100 x^{2} +350x-150 \ \textgreater \ 0$

Now we solve this for x:
$-2 x^{2} +7x-3 \ \textgreater \ 0$

We have:
a = -2
b = 7
c = -3

We will use formula for quadratic equation:
$x_{1} = \frac{-b+ \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} \\ \\ x_{2} = \frac{-b- \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} \\ \\ x_{1} = \frac{-7+ \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4} = \frac{-7+5 }{-4} = \frac{-2 }{-4} = \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ x_{2} = \frac{-7- \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4} = \frac{-7-5 }{-4} = \frac{-12 }{-4} = 3$

We got two solutions. One is fraction other is whole number. We will not consider fraction because the amount of muffins sold must be whole number. So our solution is:
x>3

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

greatest common factor is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

4k, 18k^4, 12

To find greatest common factor , we write each term in factor form

factors form are the product of the factor of given term

4k ---> 2 * 2* k

18k^2 ----> 3 * 3* 2* k*k

12 -----> 2*2*3

all the three terms has common factor 2

So GCf is 2

A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. a delivery of 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a t

Hoochie [10]

Let's let the weight of a large box be L, and the weight of a small box be S.

We know that 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes is 120kg, so:
5L + 3S = 120

We also know that 7 large boxes and 9 small boxes is 234kg, so:
7L + 9S = 234

You can multiply the first equation by 3 to get:
15L + 9S = 360

See how now both equations have 9S? We can now subtract one from the other:
(15L+9S) - (7L+9S) = 360-234
8L = 126
L = 15.75

Now sub this value back into an equation:
(5x15.75) + 3S = 120
3S = 41.25
S = 13.75

Double check these values
(7x15.75) + (9x13.75)
= 110.25 + 123.75
=234, which is consistent with above.

So a large box is 15.75kg, and a small box is 13.75kg.

Hope this helped

You want to place a towel bar that is 24 1/4 centimeters long in the center of a door that is 70 1/3 centimeters wide. How far s

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

The towel bar should be placed at a distance of $23\frac{1}{24}\ cm$ from each edge of the door.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of the towel bar = $24\frac14\ cm$

Now given length is in mixed fraction we will convert in fraction.

To Convert mixed fraction into fraction Multiply the whole number part by the fraction's denominator, then Add that to the numerator, then write the result on top of the denominator.

$24\frac14\ cm$ can be Rewritten as $\frac{97}{4}\ cm$
