A) zeroes
P(n) = -250 n^2 + 2500n - 5250
Extract common factor:
P(n)= -250 (n^2 - 10n + 21)
Factor (find two numbers that sum -10 and its product is 21)
P(n) = -250(n - 3)(n - 7)
Zeroes ==> n - 3 = 0 or n -7 = 0
Then n = 3 and n = 7 are the zeros.
They rerpesent that if the promoter sells tickets at 3 or 7 dollars the profit is zero.
B) Maximum profit
Completion of squares
n^2 - 10n + 21 = n^2 - 10n + 25 - 4 = (n^2 - 10n+ 25) - 4 = (n - 5)^2 - 4
P(n) = - 250[(n-5)^2 -4] = -250(n-5)^2 + 1000
Maximum ==> - 250 (n - 5)^2 = 0 ==> n = 5 and P(5) = 1000
Maximum profit =1000 at n = 5
C) Axis of symmetry
Vertex = (h,k) when the equation is in the form A(n-h)^2 + k
Comparing A(n-h)^2 + k with - 250(n - 5)^2 + 1000
Vertex = (5, 1000) and the symmetry axis is n = 5.
<u>Answer</u>
C. 39.71
<u>Explanation</u>
33 = p - 6.71
The first step is to make the like terms to be on the same side.
Add 6.71 on both sides of the eqution
33 + 6.71 = p - 6.71 + 6.71
39.71 = p
∴ p = 39.71
Answer:
55+8.5x=123
Step-by-step explanation:
The 55 represents the flat fee, the 8.5 represents the daily charge, x represents the number of days she rented it for, and 123 is the total amount
Answer:
d = 1.67 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Speed of a person,
We need to find how many miles can you walk in 30 minutes, given the same pace.
30 minutes = 0.5 h
Speed = distance/time
So, the person will cover a distance of 1.67 miles
