7/2
The expression that best estimates 6 3/4 divided by 1 2/3 is 7/2. 6 3/4 (or 6.75) divided by 1 2/3 (or 1.66...) comes out to 4 1/20 (or 4.05). The closest value to this in the options available is 7/2 (or 3.5). This answer is only .55 away from the correct value, while the rest of the options are far less close.
The least it could weigh would be 4 tons by rounding 4.4 down
The most it could weigh would be 8 tons by rounding 7.7 up.
.08x+.05(15000-x)=930
.08x+750-.05=930
.08x-.05x=930-750
.03x=180
X=180/.03=6,000 at 8%
(15000-6000)=9000 at 5%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y = 175
y = 175 - x
f(x) = (x+3)(y+4)
= x(175-x) + 3(175-x) + 4x + 12
= 175x - x² + 525 - 3x + 4x + 12
= -x² +176x + 537
f'(x) = -2x + 176
maximum when x = 88
y = 175-x = 87
