Answer:

$34.5

$5,951.5

Step-by-step explanation:

P(x)=27+x

Quantity (x)=210-5x

Income(y)=price×quantity

=(27+x)(210-5x)

=5670-135x+210-5x^2

y= -5x^2+75x+5670

dy/dx= -10x+75=0

-10x=-75

x=-75/-10

=7.5

x=7.5

Maximum income=27+x

=27+7.5

=$34.5

Total income=(27+x)(210-5x)

=(27+7.5){210-5(7.5)}

=(34.5)(210-37.5)

=(34.5)(172.5)

=$5,951.25

The sum of two numbers is -18. If the first number is 10, which equation represents this situation, and what is the second numbe
ki77a [65]
Don’t know if there’s much of an equation for it, but I guess the best way to write it out is 10 + x = -18. Then, you would subtract the 10 from both sides in order to isolate the x. So then you’re left with x = -28. So -28 is your answer.

Write an<br> explicit formula for An, the nth term of the sequence 7, -42, 252, ....
erik [133]

Answer:

A_n = 7(-6)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Key skills needed: Explicit formula, Geometric sequence</u>

1) This is a geometric sequence, meaning a constant (like 6 or 3.5) is being multiplied to every term. First we need to find the constant.

This can be done by doing -42 ÷ 7   or   252 ÷ -42

-42 ÷ 7 equals -6.

252 ÷ -42 also equals -6.

2) This means that constant is -6.

3) The general form for an explicit formula of a geometric sequence is:

a_n = a_1(r)^{n-1}

--> r means the constant (or common ratio) that is being multiplied.

--> a_1 means the first term

--> a_n means the "nth" numbered term (so a_3 is the 3rd term, a_{10} is the 10th term and so on).

--> n-1 is just the "n" in a_n minus 1.

4) We can use this formula to create an explicit formula for the geometric sequence in the problem.

--> r = -6 (Since we got -6 as the constant/common ratio).

--> a_1  = 7 (Since 7 is the 1st term)

This means that our formula would be --> A_n = 7(-6)^{n-1}

<em>Hope you understood and have a nice day!! :D</em>

A countertop is 16 feet long and 3 feet wide. what is the area of the countertop in square meters
Paladinen [302]

The area of the countertop is (16-ft x 3-ft) = 48 feet² .

1 foot = 0.3048 meter (rounded)

(1 foot)² = (0.3048 meter)² = 0.0929 meter²

48 feet² = (48 x 0.0929) =  4.459 meter² (rounded)

. What are the exact solutions of x2 - x - 4 = 0?
Dimas [21]
X ² - x - 4 = 0
x_{1}  = \frac{1+ \sqrt{1+16}  }{2}= \frac{1+ \sqrt{17} }{2} = 2.56
x_{2} =  \frac{1- \sqrt{17} }{2}= - 1.56
Exact values are x 1 = 2.56 and x 2 = -1.56
