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

Simplify sinø + cosø × cotø
insens350 [35]
That would be 
                        cos x
sin x + cos x * --------
                        sin x
               
                        sin x
Mult sin x by ----------
                        sin x

to obtain 

(sin x)^2
------------
   sin x

and then add

(cos x)^2
-------------
   sin x

with the outcome being 

(sin x)^2 + (cos x)^2        1
--------------------------- = --------- = cos x (answer)

What is the answer 2(4y+1)=3y
SCORPION-xisa [38]
2(4y+1) = 3y. We need to solve for y.
First let's get ride of the parenthesis by developing 2(4y+1). This means to multiply 2 by 4y and 2 by 1, and add them.
2(4y+1) = 2*4y + 2*1 = 8y + 2
So 2(4y+1)=3y
8y+2 = 3y
Then you subtract 8y from each side to have the variables on a side and the numbers on the other:
3y - 8y = 8y + 2 - 8y
-5y = 2
Then you divide each side by -5 to get the variable y alone on a side and its value on the other:
(-5y)/-5 = 2/-5
y = -2/5

You can re-check your answer (very important):
2(4y + 1) = 2(4*-2/5 + 1) = -1.2
3y = 3 * -2/5 = -1.2
So 2(4y+1)=3y= -1.2
The answer has been approved.

Hope this Helps! :)

The base of a solid in the region bounded by the parabola x2 + y = 4 and the line x + y = 2. Cross sections of the solid perpend
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

volume of the solid is 3.180

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

line x + y = 2

parabola  x2 + y = 4

to find out

the volume of the solid

solution

we draw a graph between line and parabola as show in fig given below attach

line cut at (-1,3) and (2,0)

so the length of diameter is ( 4 - x²) - (2 - x)

and radius of this semi circle will be ( 4 - x² - 2 + x ) /2

radius = (-x² + x + 2 ) /2

and r(x) will be  =  (-x² + x + 2 ) /2

and A(x) will be  = π ( r(x)² ) /2

we will integrate from -1 to 2

= \int_{-1}^{2}A(x))

= \int_{-1}^{2}(π ( (-x² + x + 2 ) /2)² ) /2))

= 81π / 20

volume of the solid is 3.180
