For this case what we must do is find a quadratic function that is already factored.
This is because in the factored quadratic equations, it is easier to observe the zeros of the function.
In this case, the zeros of the function represent the time at which the company did not make any profit.
We have the following equation:
p (t) = 40 (t - 3) (t + 2) (t - 5) (t + 3)
We observed that there was no gain in:
t = 3
t = 5
The other roots are discarded because they are negative
Answer:
a.p (t) = 40 (t - 3) (t + 2) (t - 5) (t + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you meant :
the restaurant has 20 1/2 pounds of bananas.
one smoothie uses 1/8 pound of bananas.
how many smoothies can be made with the amount of available bananas ?
the answer is as many as the times 1/8 fit into 20 1/2.
so, we actually calculate
(20 1/2) / (1/8)
first we will convert the mixed number into a true fraction :
20 1/2 = 40/2 + 1/2 = 41/2
so we have
41/2 / 1/8
and then, when dividing fractions we have 2 choices (they do both the same, of course, but start looking differently) :
a/b / c/d = a×d / b×c
a/b / c/d = a/b × d/c = a×d / b×c
so,
41/2 / 1/8 = 41×8 / 2×1 = 41×4 = 164
they can make 164 smoothies.
Ok first we have to find out whats 2p+p=20 combine like terms to get 3p=20 the divide 3 on each side to get p=6 2/3 then we plug in 6 2/3 to 2p-5 so 2(6 2/3) -5 so its 12.666-5 to get 7.666 so that's the answer.
CONSECUTIVE NUMBERS; x, x+1
(x+1)4=3(x)+23
4x+4=3x+23
4x-3x=23-4
x=19
x+1=20
THEREFORE the consecutive numbers are 19&20
