Answer:

z = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

z + (z + -6) + -2 = -10

Reorder the terms:

z + (-6 + z) + -2 = -10

Remove parenthesis around (-6 + z)

z + -6 + z + -2 = -10

Reorder the terms:

-6 + -2 + z + z = -10

Combine like terms: -6 + -2 = -8

-8 + z + z = -10

Combine like terms: z + z = 2z

-8 + 2z = -10

Solving

-8 + 2z = -10

Solving for variable 'z'.

Move all terms containing z to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '8' to each side of the equation.

-8 + 8 + 2z = -10 + 8

Combine like terms: -8 + 8 = 0

0 + 2z = -10 + 8

2z = -10 + 8

Combine like terms: -10 + 8 = -2

2z = -2

Divide each side by '2'.

z = -1

Simplifying

z = -1

The total cost of producing a type of tractor is given by C(x)=11000−20x+0.02x2, where x is the number of tractors produced. How
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to complete the square.

C(x) = 0.02(x^2 - 1000x  ...)  + 11000

C(x) = 0.02 (x^2 - 1000x + 500^2) + 11000 - 5000

C(x) = 0.02 (x^2 - 1000x + 500^2) + 6000

C(x) = 0.02(x - 500)^2 + 6000

Now if you look at the answer you will find that the square is completed. That means that number of tractors you could produce is 500 at a cost of 6000

There is a flow to this question that you may have trouble understanding.

First of all the 500^2. That comes from taking 1/2 of 1000 and squaring it. That's what you need to complete the square.

Bur that is not what you have adding into the equation. Remember that there is a 0.02 in front of the brackets.

500^2 = 250000

0.02 * 250000 = 5000

So that number must be subtracted to make the square = 0. When you remove the brackets, you should get 11000 all in all.

So what you have outside the brackets is 11000 - 5000 = 6000

The rest is just standard for completing the square.

Find an equation of a line that is parallel to 2x+3y=6 and passes through the point (4, 4)
wariber [46]

Answer:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of a line 2x+3y=6 is -2/3

So line passing through (0,4) has same slope because both are parallel

From slope intercept form we have

Y-y1 =m(x-1)

Y-4= -2/3(x-0)

3Y-12 = -2x

3Y+2x = 12

Which is required equation of a line.
