Answer:

length is 7.5 and width is 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Its given that perimeter of the triangle is 24 units.

The condition is that length is 3 units more than the width.

l=w+3;

Formula for perimeter is 2(l+w).

so ,

2(w+w+3)=24,

2w+3=12,

w=4.5,

l=w+3=7.5

Hence for the given conditions length is 7.5 and width is 4.5.

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
