What is the solution to this equation? 8 - 5(x - 3) = 18

Mathematics
1 answer:
Marysya12 [62]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

8 - 5(x - 3) = 18 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

- 5(x - 3) = 10 ( divide both sides by - 5 )

x - 3 = - 2 ( add 3 to both sides )

x = 1

amm1812

Answer:

a)   x₁ = 14

     x₂ = - 6

b) x = 4

c) P(max ) = 4000000 $

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the axis of symmetry we solve the equation

a) -4x² + 32x + 336 = 0

4x²  - 32x  - 336  = 0       or    x² - 8x - 84 = 0

x₁,₂ = [ -b ± √b² -4ac ]/2a

x₁,₂ = [ 8  ±√(64) + 336 ]/2

x₁,₂ = [ 8  ± √400 ]/2

x₁,₂ =( 8 ± 20 )/2

x₁  = 14

x₂ = -6

a) Axis of symmetry must go through the middle point between the roots

x = 4 is the axis of symmetry

c) P = -4x² + 32x + 336

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get

P´(x) = - 8x + 32  ⇒  P´(x) = 0     - 8x + 32

x = 32/8

x = 4    Company has to sell  4 ( 4000 snowboard)

to get  a profit :

P = - 4*(4)² + 32*(4) + 336

P(max) = -64  + 128 + 336

P(max) = 400           or  400* 10000 =  4000000

Solve for x in the equation.
oksano4ka [1.4K]
x^2 + 20x + 100 = 36

(x + 10)^2 = 36

x + 10 = \pm \sqrt{36}

x + 10 = 6   or   x + 10 = -6

x = -4   or   = -16
