Answer:
x = 6, x = 44; The zeros represent the number of monthly memberships where no profit is made.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = −x² + 50x − 264
−x² + 50x − 264 = 0
-x² + 44x + 6x - 264 = 0
-x(x - 44) + 6(x - 44) = 0
(x - 44)(-x + 6) = 0
x = 6, 44
The total mass was 149.5 grams.
Setting up an equation, we have that the sample size, 39.1, is 5 3/4 (5.75) grams less than 3/10 of the total mass; this gives us
39.1 = 3/10x - 5.75
Adding 5.75 to both sides, we have
44.85 = 3/10x
Multiplying both sides by 10,
448.5 = 3x
Dividing both sides by 3,
149.5 = x
Hi there!
The substitutions are 10 and 0.
Answer:
In fraction form it is 4 1/12
9 ÷ 12 = 0.75
Let’s check our work: 0.75 x 12 = 9
Therefore, the answer is 0.75
Hope this helps
