A retailer who sells backpacks estimates that by selling them for x dollars each, she will be able to sell 100−x backpacks each

month. The quadratic function R(x)=−x2+100x is used to find the revenue, R, received when the selling price of a backpack is x. Find the selling price that will give her the maximum revenue, and then find the amount of the maximum revenue.

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:

6.66%

Step-by-step explanation:

((1 + r/m)^n) - 1

Interest rate , r = 6.5%

m = number of compounding times per period = 4 (quarterly interest)

((1 + 0.065/4)^4) - 1

((1 + 0.01625) ^4) - 1

((1.01625)^4) - 1

1.06660 - 1

= 0.0666

0.0666 * 100%

= 6.66%

A train travels in a straight path at a steady speed of 1.25 miles per minute. At noon, the train is 100 miles from the starting
Leto [7]
We'll take 1.25 miles as one minute (x) and take 100 as total distance (D) while T is the time it took to reach that distance.
T = D/x
putting the values in
T = 100/1.25
T = 80
80 minutes is the answer.
