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
nalin [4]

Answer:

$519

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the amount of profit made expressed as y=-2x^2+105x-859

At maximum profit, dy/dx = 0

dy/dx = -4x + 105

0 = -4x + 105

4x = 105

x = 105/4

x = 26.25

Substitute into the original function

y=-2x^2+105x-859

y=-2(26.25)^2+105(26.25)-859

y = - 1,378.125+2,756.25-859

y = 519.125

Hence the maximum amount of profit the company can make is $519

Help for this equation :<br><br> a+5= -7<br><br> What is the answer?
Sophie [7]
Hey! a+5=7 means that a is the variable, while seven is the answer. My technique is like this: 7-5=2 You need to subtract the numbers you already have. This only works for addition! Hope this helps :) !

In triangle abc, the perimeter is 36, and ab=ac. line ad is perpendicular to bc at the point d, and triangle abd's perimeter is
Musya8 [376]
Let x=ab=ac, and y=bc, and z=ad.

Since the perimeter of the triangle abc is 36, you have:

Perimeter of abc = 36
ab + ac + bc = 36
x + x + y = 36
(eq. 1) 2x + y = 36

The triangle is isosceles (it has two sides with equal length: ab and ac). The line perpendicular to the third side (bc) from the opposite vertex (a), divides that third side into two equal halves: the point d is the middle point of bc. This is a property of isosceles triangles, which is easily shown by similarity.

Hence, we have that bd = dc = bc/2 = y/2 (remember we called bc = y).

The perimeter of the triangle abd is 30:

Permiter of abd = 30
ab + bd + ad = 30
x + y/2 + z =30
(eq. 2) 2x + y + 2z = 60

So, we have two equations on x, y and z:

(eq.1) 2x + y = 36
(eq.2) 2x + y + 2z = 60

Substitute 2x + y by 36 from (eq.1) in (eq.2):

(eq.2') 36 + 2z = 60

And solve for z:

36 + 2z = 60 => 2z = 60 - 36 => 2z = 24 => z = 12

The measure of ad is 12.

If you prefer a less algebraic reasoning:

- The perimeter of abd is half the perimeter of abc plus the length of ad (since you have "cut" the triangle abc in two halves to obtain the triangle abd).

- Then, ad is the difference between the perimeter of abd and half the perimeter of abc:

ad = 30 - (36/2) = 30 - 18 = 12
