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

Find the perimeter of the given triangle
trasher [3.6K]

Here it is given that the triangles ABP and DCR are similars, therefore we use the ratio rule which states that

corresponding sides of similar triangles are in same proprtion .

\frac{AB}{DC} = \frac{BP}{CR}

that gives

7/10 = BP/11

7*11=10BP

BP=7.7

Again using the ratio rule

\frac{AB}{DC} = \frac{AP}{DR}

7/10 = AP/6

42 = 10AP

AP = 4.2

Perimeter= AB+BP+AP = 7+7.7+4.2 = 18.9

Correct option is A.

7. algebra sara allen is interested in buying a notebook
seropon [69]

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. The regular selling price of the computer notebook will be $937.5.

<h3>What are Percentages?</h3>

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

Let the selling price of the computer notebook be represented by x.

Now, if Sara buys the computer this week, the selling price of the computer will be (100%-16%)x = 0.84x.

Also, the saving she made by buying this week will be $150, therefore, we can write,

x-0.84x = $150

0.16x = $150

x = 937.5

Hence, the regular selling price of the computer notebook will be $937.5.
