Answer:

96 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

From given picture we see that

BC=8 in

AD=10 in

Given that

AD=AB

Then AB=10 in

Apply Pythagorean theorem in triangle ABC to find AC

$(hypotenuse)^2=(base)^2+(perpendicular)^2$

$(AB)^2=(BC)^2+(AC)^2$

$(10)^2=(8)^2+(AC)^2$

$100=64+(AC)^2$

$100-64=(AC)^2$

$36=(AC)^2$

take square root

$6=AC$

Then area of triangle ABC $=\frac{1}{2}\left(base\right)\left(altitude\right)$

$=\frac{1}{2}\left(8\right)\left(6\right)=24$

There are total 4 congruent triangles.

Then total area of the given figure = 4(24)=96 square inches.

Answer:

a. The start-up cost for the teenagers company is $50

b. The number of mugs the teenager must sell to break even are 5 mugs or 25 mugs

c. The number of mugs that will give maximum profit is 15 mugs

d. The profit if she sells 10 mugs is $30

Step-by-step explanation:

The given profit function for selling <em>x</em> number of mugs is presented as follows;

f(x) = -0.4·x² + 12·x - 50

a. The start-up cost in dollars is given by the value of the profit function at the start, where, x = 0, as follows;

Start-up cost = f(0) = -0.4×0² + 12×0 - 50 = -50

The negative sign represents amount put in the business

The start-up cost = (The initial) $50 put into the business.

b. The break even point is the point where, the revenue and costs are equal

At break even point; Revenue = Cost

∴ Profit, at break even point, f(x) = Revenue - Cost = 0

From the profit function, we get;

At the break even point, f(x) = 0 = -0.4·x² + 12·x - 50

Dividing by -0.4 gives;

0/(-0.4) = 0 = (-0.4·x² + 12·x - 50)/(-0.4) = x² - 30 + 125

0 = x² - 30 + 125

∴ (x - 25)·(x - 5) = 0

The number of mugs the teenager must sell before she breaks even, x = 5 mugs or x = 25 mugs.

c. From the general form of a quadratic equation, which is; y = a··x² + b·x + c, the formula for the x-values at the maximum point is; x = -b/(2·a)

Comparing the profit function to the general form of the quadratic equation we have at the maximum point;

x = -12/(2×(-0.4)) = 15

Therefore, the number of mugs that will give maximum profit, x = 15 mugs.

d. The profit from selling 10 mugs, f(10) is given as follows;

f(10) = -0.4 × 10² + 12 × 10 - 50 = 30

The profit from selling 10 mugs, f(10) = $30

What are the features of the parabola modeled by the equation f(x) = x2 - 114x ?

Answer:

Answers are in bold type

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = $x^{2} -144x$

The parabola opens up, so has a minimum at the vertex.

Let (h, k) be the vertex

h = -b/2a = - (-144)/2(1) = 57

k = 57^2 - 144(57) = 3249 - 6498 = -3249

Therefore, the vertex is (57, -3249)

The minimum value is -3249

The domain is the set of real numbers.

The range = {y | y ≥ -3249}

The function decreases when -∞ < x < 57 and increases when 57 > x > ∞

The x - intercepts: $x^{2} -144x$ = 0

x(x - 114x) = 0

x = 0 or x = 114

x-intercepts are (0, 0) and (0, 114)

When x = 0, then we get the y-intercept. So, 0^2 - 114(0) = 0

y-intercept is (0, 0)

Solve the following inequality: 10t + 7 , 200 > 21 , 000

Alla [95]

Answer:

t > 1380

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 7200 from both sides

10t + 7200 - 7200 > 21000 - 7200

Simplify

10t > 13800

Divide both sides by 10

10t/10 > 13800/10

Simplify

t > 1380

Simplify the expression<br> 9r+7+3(8p+7r)+15

ExtremeBDS [4]

You must distribute first, so 3(8p+7r). That will equal 24p +21r. Then you must add all the values together according to like terms, so the variables must match. So simplified it will be 22+24p+30r

Obtuse angles are over 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees. So minimum y can be is 10: (5 x 10) + 45 = 95 degrees (which is more than 90). Maximum for y is 26: (5 x 26) + 45 = 175 (which is less than 180 degrees)
