A company has determined that its weekly profit is a function of the number of items that it sells. Which equation could represe

nt the weekly profit in thousands of dollars, y, when the company sells x items? y squared = 4 x squared minus 100 y = negative x squared + 50 x minus 300 x = negative y squared minus 400 x squared = negative 6 y squared + 200

Answer:

B. y= -x^2+50x-300

Step-by-step explanation:

A. y^2=4x^2-100

B. y= -x^2+50x-300

C. x=-y^2-400

D. x^2=-6y^2+200

we are to find profits (y) when the company sells x items

Option A can be used to calculate the profit (y) squared

Option B can be used to calculate profits (y)

Option C can be used to calculate items sold(x)

Option D can be used to calculate items sold squared(x^2)

We are asked to find the weekly profit (y) function which eliminate options A, C and D leaving us with option B

Therefore, the weekly profits (y) function in thousands of dollars when the company sells x items is

B. y= -x^2+50x-300

A man walking on a railroad bridge is 2/5 of the way along the bridge when he notices a train at a distance approaching at the c
makkiz [27]

Answer:

The Man needs to run at 9 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M stand for the man's speed in mph.  When the man  

runs toward point A, the relative speed of the train with respect  

to the man is the train's speed plus the man's speed (45 + M).  

When he runs toward point B, the relative speed of the train is the  

train's speed minus the man's speed (45 - M).

When he runs toward the train the distance he covers is 2 units.  

When he runs in the direction of the train the distance he covers  

is 3 units. We can now write that the ratio of the relative speed  

of the train when he is running toward point A to the relative speed  

of the train when he is running toward point B, is equal to the  

inverse ratio of the two distance units or

              (45 + M)          3

              -----------  =      ---

              (45 - M)          2

          90+2 M=135-3 M

⇒5 M = 45

⇒ M = 9 mph

The Man needs to run at 9 mph

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The relator recived $8,186.4

Step-by-step explanation:

What you have to do is find the 60% of the commission. Commission is 4% of $341,100 (100%)

First do a cross multiplication to find 4% of $341,100

100% ___ $341,100

4%______x:

x=(4*341,100)/100=13,644

So, the 4% of $341,100 is $13,466

Now you have to find the 60% of $13,466

100% ___ $13,466

60%______x:

x=(60*13,466)/100=8,186.4

The answer is: $8,186.4

A large container holds 8 gallons of water. After 56 minutes the container only has 1 gallon of water left. At what rate is the
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The rate at which water leaking is \frac{1}{8} gal/min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A large container holds 8 gallons of water.

After 56 minutes the container only has 1 gallon of water left.

Now, to find at what rate is the water leaking.

So, water leaked from the container = 8 gallons - 1 gallon = 7 gallons.

Time taken for leakage = 56 minutes.

<em>Now, to get the rate:</em>

\frac{Gallons\ of\ water\ leaked}{Time\ taken\ for\ leakage}

=\frac{7 gallons}{56 minutes}

=\frac{1 gallon}{8 minutes}

The rate = \frac{1}{8} gal/min.

Therefore, the rate at which water is leaking is \frac{1}{8} gal/min.
