Answer:

$133507.33

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of 6 month periods

y = total money in account

After 10 years:

$y = 300x(1.09)^x$

$y = 300(20)(1.09)^2^0$

$y = 6000(5.60441077)$

$y = 33626.46$

After 18 years:

$y = 33626.46(1.09)^x$

$y = 33626.46(1.09)^1^6$

$y = 33626.46(3.97030588)$

$y = 133507.33$

if P(x)=1+6x-5x^2 represents the profit in selling x thousand Boombotix speakers, how many speakers should be sold to maximize p

Rashid [163]

Answer:

600

Step-by-step explanation:

$p(x) = 1 + 6x - 5x^2$

x max = $-b/2a$

a = -5

b = 6

-6/2(-5) = 6/10 = 3/5 = .6

.6 thousand = 600

600 speakers should be sold.

Alternatively, you can check the vertex of the parabola formed.

It takes Dwight 1 1/3 hours to run the sunshine trail. Mike 3 1/5 hours to walk the same trail. How many times as long does it t

Anit [1.1K]

For this case we convert the mixed numbers to fractions:

Dwight: $1 \frac {1} {3} = \frac {3 * 1 + 1} {3} = \frac {4} {3} = 1.33$

Mike: $3 \frac {1} {5} = \frac {5 * 3 + 1} {5} = \frac {16} {5} = 3.2$

It is observed, that in fact, Mike takes more time to travel the road.

We subtract to know how much more time it takes Mike:

$\frac {16} {5} - \frac {4} {3} = \frac {48-20} {15} = \frac {28} {15}$

So, Mike takes $\frac {28} {15}$ hours more than Dwight to walk the road.

Answer:

Mike takes $\frac {28} {15}$ hours longer than Dwight to walk the road.
