Answer:

<u>The annual profit if the baker sells 400 pies would be US$ 12,800</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:

Annual profit in dollars from selling pies using p n( ) = 52n − 0.05n² , where n is the number of pies sold

Annual sales of the baker = 400 pies

2. Let's solve p for 400 pies

p n( ) = 52n − 0.05n²

p (n₄₀₀) = 52 * 400 − 0.05 * 400²

p (n₄₀₀) = 20,800 − 0.05 * 160,000

p (n₄₀₀) = 20,800 − 8,000

p (n₄₀₀) = 12,800

<u>The annual profit if the baker sells 400 pies would be US$ 12,800</u>

Which graph is an example of a function whose parent graph is of the form y = √x?

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The correct option is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parent function is

$y=\sqrt{x}$

1. Domain of the function is all positive real number including 0.

2. Range of the function is all positive real number including 0.

3. It is an increasing function. It increases at decreasing rate.

First graph increase at decreasing rate and it starts from (-4,-1), therefore the required function is

$y=\sqrt{x+4}-1$

Therefore graph 1 is an example of a function whose parent graph is of the form y = √x.

Second graph is a parabola, so it is the graph of a quadratic function.

Third graph is a rectangular hyperbola, so it is the graph of a rational functions.

Fourth graph is increasing at increasing rate, so it is the graph of an exponential function.

Therefore options 2, 3 and 4 are incorrect.

Write this equation in standard form<br> y + 4 = 2/3 (x+7)

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

$y=\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a straight line is of the form:

$y=mx+c$

We have to convert the given equation into above form.

Simplifying the given equation:

$y=\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{14}{3}-4$

$=\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{(14-12)}{3}$

$=\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{2}{3}$ .- This is in standard form

where $m=c=\frac{2}{3}$

ser-zykov [4K]

Let h be the numbers of hours, f be the one-time fee and c the cost charged. The equation is

$c=15h+f$

Since you pay $15 per four, plus the fee. We can solve this equation for the fee:

$f=c-15h$

If we plug c=195 and h=9, we have

$f=195-15\cdot 9=195-135=60$

HELP NOWW!!!<br> PLSS I NEED HELP RIGHT NOWWW!!<br> PLS HELP

NemiM [27]

Answer:

x = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a line parallel to the top and bottom parallel lines so this new line goes through the pointed end of x.

Draw another line parallel to the top and bottom lines through the pointy end of 45.

The bottom angle of the line through 45 is 15 degrees (alternate interior angles.

The top angle is 45 - 15 = 30

The bottom angle of the line going to x is 150 degrees. It and the 30 degree angle make 180. 30 + 150 = 180

One final observation The top angle of made by the line going through x is 180 - 25 = 155

What you have now is

155 + 150 + x = 360

305 + x = 360

x = 360 - 305

x = 55

A rectangular piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide. Squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the original length of the piece of metal

y ----> the original width of the piece of metal

we know that

When squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box

The dimensions of the box are

$L=(x-10)\ in\\W=(y-10)\ in\\H=5\ in$

The volume of the box is equal to

$V=(x-10)(y-10)5$

$V=930\ in^3$

so

$930=(x-10)(y-10)5$

simplify

$186=(x-10)(y-10)$ -----> equation A

Remember that

The piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide

so

$x=y+25$ ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$186=(y+25-10)(y-10)$

solve for y

$186=(y+15)(y-10)\\186=y^2-10y+15y-150\\y^2+5y-336=0$

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

using a graphing tool

The solution is y=16

see the attached figure

Find the value of x

$x=16+25=41$

therefore

The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
