28
42/60=x/40 so cross multiply
42x40=1680
60x=1680
÷60 ÷60
x=28 countries

this is right out of my notes how it was taught so i hope its right or shame on my teacher lol

42/60 = x/40
x = 42 x 40 / 60
x = 28

What is the circumference of circle p ? Express in terms of pie

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

The circumference of a circle is calculated using the following equation:

$C= \pi d$

Where d is equal to the diameter (the length of a straight line from one side of the circle to the other side).

We know that the diameter of the circle given (also known as AB) is equal to 20 cm.

We can then plug this into the equation and solve for the circumference:

$C= \pi (20)$

Since the question asks for the answer to be in terms of $\pi$ , this is as far as we need to go. So the circumference of the circle is: $20 \pi$ or D.

A concession stand at an athletic event is trying to determine how much to sell cola and iced tea for in order to maximize reven

Cerrena [4.2K]

Solution :

Demand for cola : 100 – 34x + 5y

Demand for cola : 50 + 3x – 16y

Therefore, total revenue :

x(100 – 34x + 5y) + y(50 + 3x – 16y)

R(x,y) = $100x-34x^2+5xy+50y+3xy-16y^2$

$R(x,y) = 100x-34x^2+8xy+50y-16y^2$

In order to maximize the revenue, set

$R_x=0, \ \ \ R_y=0$

$R_x=\frac{dR }{dx} = 100-68x+8y$

$R_x=0$

$68x-8y=100$ .............(i)

$R_y=\frac{dR }{dx} = 50-32x+8y$

$R_y=0$

$8x-32y=-50$ .............(ii)

Solving (i) and (ii),

4 x (i) ⇒ 272x - 32y = 400

(ii) ⇒ (-<u>) 8x - 32y = -50 </u>

264x = 450

∴ $x=\frac{450}{264}=\frac{75}{44}$

$y=\frac{175}{88}$

So, x ≈ $ 1.70 and y = $ 1.99

R(1.70, 1.99) = $ 134.94

Thus, 1.70 dollars per cola

1.99 dollars per iced ted to maximize the revenue.

Maximum revenue = $ 134.94

Sylvie is going on vacation. She has already driven 60 miles in one hour. Her average speed for the rest of the trip is 57 miles

Rina8888 [55]

Well you do 57 time 7 and get 399 and then it says how far will she have driven so you would add the 60 and get 459 miles.
