A corporation reported profit of approximately $1500 million with approximately $24,300 million in revenues. Compare the profit

to revenue by writing as a fraction in the lowest terms

Answer:

\frac{5}{81}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Profit = $1500 million

Revenue = $24,300 million

Profit to Revenue = \frac{1500 million}{24,300 million}       [Since they both have same unit ($), this sign can be omitted]

<em>Now let's reduce the ratio above to its lowest terms...</em>

\frac{1500 million}{24,300 million}

[First, the millions at the numerator and denominator cancel out]

\frac{1500}{24,300}  

[Next, the two zeros at the numerator and denominator cancel out]

\frac{15}{243}

[Next, divide both the numerator and denominator by 3]

\frac{5}{81}

Since no further division can be done, then the profit to revenue is in its lowest terms as \frac{5}{81}

the school newspaper has a circulation of 500 and sells for $.035 a copy. the students decide to raise the price to increase the
Alik [6]

Let x be the number of times they raise the price on the newspaper. Then the new cost of the newspaper is

.35+.05x

Let y be the newspaper they sell, then the income will be

y(.35+.05x)

Now, we know that the circulation is of 500, assuming that they sold every newspaper at the original price now the number the will sell will be

y=500-20x

Plugging the value of y in the first expression we have that the income will be

\begin{gathered} f(x)=(500-20x)(.35+\text{0}.5x)=175+25x-7x-x^2 \\ =-x^2+18x+175 \end{gathered}

Then the income is given by the function

f(x)=-x^2+18x+175

To find the maximum value of this functions (thus the maximum income) we need to take the derivative of the function,

\begin{gathered} \frac{df}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}(-x^2+18x+175) \\ =-2x+18 \end{gathered}

no we equate the derivative to zero and solve for x.

\begin{gathered} \frac{df}{dx}=0 \\ -2x+18=0 \\ -2x=-18 \\ x=\frac{-18}{-2} \\ x=9 \end{gathered}

This means that we have an extreme value of the function when x=9. Now we need to find out if this value is a maximum or a minimum. To do this we need to take the second derivative of the function, then

\begin{gathered} \frac{d^2f}{dx^2}=\frac{d}{dx}(\frac{df}{dx}) \\ =\frac{d}{dx}(-2x+18) \\ =-2 \end{gathered}

Since the second derivative is negative in the point x=9, we conclude that this value is a maximum of the function.

With this we conclude that the number of times that they should raise the price to maximize the income is 9. This means that they will raise the price of the newspaper (9)($0.05)=$0.45.

Therefore the price to maximize the income is $0.35+$0.45=$0.80.

Which of the following represents the relationship between the circumference, c, and diameter, d, of any circle?
Usimov [2.4K]

Given:

Circumference of a circle = C

Diameter of a circle = d

To find:

The relationship between the circumference, c, and diameter, d, of any circle.

Solution:

We know that, circumference of a circle is

C=2\pi r

It can be written as

C=(2r)\pi

C=d\pi         [\because d=2r]

On dividing both sides by d, we get

\dfrac{C}{d}=\pi

Therefore, the correct option is (F).

Y=a|x-h|+k please help
RSB [31]

Answer:

i can't answer this but i can tell you this

The general form of an absolute value function is f(x)=a|x-h|+k. From this form, we can draw graphs.

y = a(x – h)2 + k, where (h, k) is the vertex. ... In the vertex form of the quadratic, the fact that (h, k) is the vertex makes sense if you think about it for a minute, and it's because the quantity "x – h" is squared, so its value is always zero or greater; being squared, it can never be negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

it is not the answer but i hope it helps:)
