Using a graphing calculator you can find that the maximum is 1038, so the profit starts to decline at the t value for <span>1038</span>, which is 31

We want to maximize the profit, p(x) = -x^2 + 62x + 77.  
The graph of this function is a parabola that opens down.  The x-coordinate of the vertex is x = -b/(2a), which here is x = -62 / (2*-1), or 31.  So, we'll maximize John's profit if we advise him to sell 31 hot dogs.

Which ordered pair will solve the equation 2 × 4 + x = y?
Bezzdna [24]
This answer uses NMF, which you can find out about on my profile:

Preliminary work:
Following the BIDMAS order of operations, we can calculate part of it already, and that's the 2•4, which equals 8.
Therefore, the equation now reads:
8+x = y

x = 5:
8+5 = 13
13 ≠ 16
13 ≠ y

x = 4:
8+4 = 12
12 = 12
12 = y

Therefore, the pair is (4, 12)

find the length of the base of a square pyramid if the volume is 1,024 cubic inches and has a height of 12 inches. (6 points) 4
Leokris [45]
To solve, we use the volume of a square pyramid formula which is expressed as the product of the area of the base (a²) and the height divided by three(h/3).

Volume = a² (h/3)
1024 in³ = (a²) (12 in/3)
a² = 1024 in³ · 3 /12
a = √256 in²
a = 16 in

Thus, the length of the base is 16 in.
