Answer:

The number of flower pots that were sold is 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of flower pots that the store owner bought and sold.

A store owner bought some flower pots for $1,200. Therefore, the cost price for each flower pot would be

1200/x

The flower pots were sold for $2,700, with a profit of $30 per pot. The means that the selling price of each flower pot would be

2700/x

Profit = selling price - cost price

Therefore

2700/x - 1200/x = 30

Multiplying both sides of the equation by x, it becomes

2700 - 1200 = 30x

30x = 1500

x = 1500/30 = 50

1) Given: circle k(O), ED= diameter ,m∠OEF=32°, m(arc)EF=(2x+10)° Find: x
qaws [65]

1. The major arc ED has measure 180 degrees since ED is a diameter of the circle. The measure of arc EF is (2x+10)^\circ, so the measure of arc DF is

m\widehat{DF}=360^\circ-180^\circ-(2x+10)^\circ=(170-2x)^\circ

The inscribed angle theorem tells us that the central angle subtended by arc DF, \angle DOF, has a measure of twice the measure of the inscribed angle DEF (which is the same angle OEF) so

m\angle DOF=2m\angle OEF=64^\circ

so the measure of arc DF is also 64 degrees. So we have

170-2x=64\implies106=2x\implies\boxed{x=53}

###

2. Arc FE and angle EOF have the same measure, 56 degrees. By the inscribed angle theorem,

m\angle EOF=2m\angle EDF\implies56^\circ=2m\angle EDF\implies m\angle EDF=28^\circ

Triangle DEF is isosceles because FD and ED have the same length, so angles EFD and DEF are congruent. Also, the sum of the interior angles of any triangle is 180 degrees. It follows that

m\angle EFD+m\angle EDF+m\angle DEF=180^\circ\implies\boxed{m\angle EFD=76^\circ}

Triangle OFE is also isosceles, so angles EFO and FEO are congruent. So we have

m\angle EFO+m\angle FEO+m\angle EOF=180^\circ\implies\boxed{m\angle EFO=62^\circ}

Show all work to identify the asymptotes and zero of the function f of x equals 5 x over quantity x squared minus 25.
Lorico [155]

Answer:

  • asymptotes: x = -5, x = 5
  • zero: x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The function of interest is ...

  f(x)=\dfrac{5x}{x^2-25}=\dfrac{5x}{(x-5)(x+5)}

The asymptotes are found where the denominator is zero. It will be zero when either factor is zero, so at x = 5 and x = -5

__

The zeros are found where the numerator is zero. It will be zero for x = 0.

The asymptotes are x=-5, x=5; the zero is x=0.
