Solve your equation step-by-step.

(2x−1)(x+7)=0

Simplify both sides of the equation.

2x2+13x−7=0

Factor left side of equation.

(2x−1)(x+7)=0

Set factors equal to 0.

2x−1=0 or x+7=0

x=1/2 or x=−7

(ED. 21) Analytic Geometry Unit Test..... #3 Which point is a solution of x2 + y2 &gt; 49 and y ≤ –x2 – 4?
sdas [7]

Answer:

We want to find a solution of the system:

x^2 + y^2 > 49

y ≤ –x^2 – 4

Here we do not have any options, so let's try to find a general solution.

First, we can remember that the equation of a circle centered in the point (a, b) and of radius R is:

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = R^2

If we look at our first inequality, we can write it as:

x^2 + y^2 > 7^2

So the solutions of the first inequality are all the points that are outside (because the symbol used is >) of the circle of radius R = 7 centered in the origin.

From the other equation, we would get:

y ≤ –x^2 – 4

This is parabola, anything that is in the graph of the parabola or below will be a solution for this inequality.

Then the solutions of the system, are the ones that are in the region of solutions for both inequalities.

You can see the graph below, where both regions are graphed. The intersection of these regions is the region of the solutions for the system of inequalities:

by looking at the graph, we can see a lot of points that are solutions, like:

(0, -10)

(0, -15)

(2, -10)

etc.

The profit function for the first version of the device was very similar to the profit function for the new version. As a matter
NeTakaya

Answer:

a) - Compressing the P(new) function by a scale of 0.5 about the y axis.

- Moving the P(new) function down by 104 units.

b) The two simplified functions for P(original)

-0.08x² + 10.8x – 200.

-0.16x² + 21.6x – 504.

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete Question

An electronics manufacturer recently created a new version of a popular device. It also created this function to represent the profit, P(x), in tens of thousands of dollars, that the company will earn based on manufacturing x thousand devices: P(x) = -0.16x² + 21.6x – 400.

a. The profit function for the first version of the device was very similar to the profit function for the new version. As a matter of fact, the profit function for the first version is a transformation of the profit function for the new version. For the value x = 40, the original profit function is half the size of the new profit function. Write two function transformations in terms of P(x) that could represent the original profit function.

b. Write the two possible functions from part a in simplified form.

Solution

The equation for the new profit function is

P(x) = -0.16x² + 21.6x – 400

At x = 40, the original profit function is half the size of the new profit function

First, we find the value of the new profit function at x = 40

P(x) = -0.16(40)² + 21.6(40) – 400 = 208

Half of 208 = 0.5 × 208 = 104

P(original at x = 40) = P(new at x = 40) ÷ 2

Since we are told that P(original) is a simple transformation of the P(new)

P(original) = P(new)/2 = (-0.16x² + 21.6x – 400)/2 = -0.08x² + 10.8x – 200 ... (eqn 1)

Or, P(original) = 104

-0.16x² + 21.6x – 400 = 104

P(original) = -0.16x² + 21.6x – 400 - 104 = -0.16x² + 21.6x – 504.

So, the two functions that are simple transformations of P(new) to get P(original) are

-0.08x² + 10.8x – 200

Obtained by compressing the P(new) function by a scale of 0.5 about the y axis.

And

-0.16x² + 21.6x – 504.

Obtained by moving the P(new) function down by 104 units.

Hope this Helps!!!

10 times 10 = ?<br> 100 times 100 = ?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

10 times 10 = 100

100 times 100 = 10000

Step-by-step explanation:

10 times 10

= 10 x 10

= 100

100 times 100

= 100 x 100

= 10000

What is 5/47 as a decimal rounded to 3 decimal places?
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

You divide 5 by 47 and then see if the fourth digit after the decimal is 5 or greater or less than 5. If it's less, the digit before it remains the same and the decimal cuts off at it. If it's 5 or greater, the digit before it goes up one and the. decimal cuts off at it. Using this, you should get 0.106, I think.
