Answer:

When adding integers with the same sign, the sum is equal to the sum of the absolute values of each addend and has the sign common to the addends. Both addends are positive, so the sum is positive. Both addends are negative, so the sum is negative

A company sells widgets. The amount of profit, y, made by the company, is related to the selling price of each widget, x, by the

kenny6666 [7]

Given:

The amount of profit, y, made by the company, is related to the selling price of each widget, x, by the given equation

$y=-29x^2+1388x-10040$

To find:

The maximum amount of profit the company can make, to the nearest dollar.

Solution:

If a quadratic equation is $f(x)=ax^2+bx+c$ , then the vertex is

$Vertex=\left(-\dfrac{b}{2a},f(-\dfrac{b}{2a})\right)$

If a>0, then vertex is the minimum point and if a<0, then the vertex is the maximum point.

We have,

$y=-29x^2+1388x-10040$

Here, $a=-29,b=1388, c=-10040$ . Clearly, a<0. So, the vertex is the point of maxima.

$-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{1388}{2(-29)}$

$-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{1388}{-58}$

$-\dfrac{b}{2a}\approx 23.931$

Putting x=23.931 in the given equation, we get

$y=-29(23.931)^2+1388(23.931)-10040$

$y=-16608.09+33216.228-10040$

$y=6568.138$

The vertex is at (23.931,6568.138).

Therefore, the maximum profit is $6568.138 when x=23.931.

Linda needs 20 gallons of juice that has 75%fruit juice. she has a mixture that has 80% fruit juice and another mixtures that ha

suter [353]

Linda should use ...
15 gallons of 80% juice
5 gallons of 60% juice

_____
Let g represent the number of gallons of 80% juice needed. Then (20-g) is the number of gallons of 60% juice Linda will use. The amount of juice in the mixture can be written as
0.80g +0.60(20 -g) = 0.75×20
0.20g = 20(0.75 -0.60) = 20×0.15
g = 20×0.15/0.20 = 15
The amount of 80% juice needed is 15 gallons, so 5 gallons of 60% juice are needed.

The length of a rectangle is 6 in. more than the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 24 in. Find the dimensions of the rect

klasskru [66]

1. First, let us define the width of the rectangle as w and the length as l.

2. Now, given that the length of the rectangle is 6 in. more than the width, we can write this out as:

l = w + 6

3. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2w + 2l. We know that the perimeter of the rectangle in the problem is 24 in. so we can rewrite this as:

24 = 2w + 2l

4. Given that we know that l = w + 6, we can substitute this into the formula for the perimeter above so that we will have only one variable to solve for. Thus:

24 = 2w + 2l

if l = w + 6, then: 24 = 2w + 2(w + 6)

24 = 2w + 2w + 12 (Expand 2(w + 6) )

24 = 4w + 12

12 = 4w (Subtract 12 from each side)

w = 12/4 (Divide each side by 4)

w = 3 in.

5. Now that we know that the width is 3 in., we can substitute this into our formula for length that we found in 2. :

l = w + 6

l = 3 + 6

l = 9 in.

6. Therefor the rectangle has a width of 3 in. and a length of 9 in.
