Answer:
x = 50
R = $2500
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question a quadratic equation,
−x² + 100x
To find the selling price, x, which will give highest revenue, y, we will find maximum value of parabola curve −x² + 100x
The value of -b/2a tells you the value x of the vertex of the function
−x² + 100x
here a = -1
b = 100
Selling price = -(100)/2(-1)
= 50
R = −(50)² + 100(50)
= 2500
Answer:
-15.6 or -15 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
24 + 3x = 3x + 3(7 - 1)
Eliminate the parentheses: 24 + 3x = 3x + 3(6)
24 + 3x = 3x + 18
Subtract 3x from each side: <em>24 = 18</em>
Look at that for a second. Can ANY value of 'x' make 24 equal to 18 ?
I don't think so.
There's NO number that makes the equation a true statement.
That's just another way to say: "The equation has NO solution."
Answer: 3 copies of 5 tenths = 3*0.5 = 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, if we have:
"3 copies of a number B"
This is written as:
3*B
And we have that the number B is "5 tenths"
Now, a tenth is the first digit after the decimal point.
Then 5 tenths = 5*0.1 = 0.5
B = 0.5
3 copies of 5 tenths = 3*0.5 = 1.5
