Answer:

The value of x is $2\sqrt[3]{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given $2+x^3=18$

We need to solve for x

First we subtract 2 both sides

$x^3=18-2=16$

Taking cube roots both sides to isolate x

$x=\sqrt[3]{16}$

Simplify the radical

$x=2\sqrt[3]{2}$

Thus, The value of x is $2\sqrt[3]{2}$

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

UNO [17]

Answer:

39 active volcanoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 169 (whole) from 130 (part). 9 - 0 = 9, 6 - 3 = 3, and 1 - 1 = 0. Therefore, 169 - 130 = 39
