P(x) = 12x – 180
Given:
A company makes and sells charm bracelets.
The cost of producing x bracelets is represented by the function C(x) = 180 +
8x
The revenue earned from selling x bracelets is represented by the function
R(x) = 20x.
Explanation of terms:
For x bracelets,
Cost of production is C(x); C(x) = 180 + 8x
Revenue earned is R(x); R(x) = 20x.Profit made is P(x); P(x) is unknown
Profit made = Revenue earned – Cost of production
∴ P(x) = R(x) – C(x)
P(x) = 20x – (180 + 8x)
P(x) = 20x – 180 – 8x
P(x) = 12x – 180
The profit made from selling x bracelets is represented by the function
<em> P(x) = 12x – 180</em>

Answer:
x = 387
Step-by-step explanation:
The wind acts in the opposite direction to the plane when the time is longer.
The wind acts in the same direction as the plane when the time is shorter.
Equation
d = r*t
Givens
- d = 1720
- x = plane's speed
- y = wind speed
- t1 = 5 hours
- t2 = 4 hours.
Substitution
- d = (x + y) * t
- 1720 = (x + y) * 4
- 1720 = (x - y) * 5
Since the two distances are the same, you can equate the right hand sides.
- (x + y) * 4 = (x - y)*5 Remove the brackets.
- 4x + 4y = 5x - 5y Add 5y to both sides
- 4x + 4y + 5y = 5x - 5y + 5y Combine all the terms.
- 4x + 9y = 5x Subtract 4x from both sides
- 9y + 4x - 4x = 5x - 4x Combine
- 9y = x
Now use one of the given equations with the distance
- 1720 = (x + y)*4 Substitute 9y for x
- 1720 = (9y + y) * 4 Combine
- 1720 = 10y * 4 Multiply the right
- 1720 = 40y Divide by 40
- 1720/40 = 40y/40 Do the division
- 43 = y y = wind speek
- 9y = x x = 9*y
- 9*43 = x
- x = 387 miles per hour.
Answer:
4x -12
Step-by-step explanation:
Your question answers itself: you use the distributive property to remove the parentheses.
4(x -3) = 4(x) +4(-3) = 4x -12
