A vendor at the State Fair has learned that, by pricing his deep fried bananas on a stick at $1.00, sales will reach 82 bananas

per day. Raising the price to $1.75 will cause the sales to fall to 52 bananas per day. Let y be the number of bananas the vendor sells at x dollars each. Write a linear equation that models the number of bananas sold per day when the price is x dollars each.

Answer:

Y=-40x+122

Step-by-step explanation:

hello

Due to the nature of the data, it is most convenient to model this problem as a linear function.

To solve this problem we must use the equation that defines a line, then start assigning the corresponding values

y1=82bananas per day

X1=1 dolar

y2=52bananas per day

x2=1.75dolar

line ecuation

y − y 1 = m(x − x 1 )

where

m=slope=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} =\frac{52-82}{1.75-1}=-40

solving:

Y-82=-40(x-1)

Y=-40x+40+82

Y=-40x+122

let's try the result!

Price =1dolar

Y=-40(1)+122=82bananas per day

Price=1.75dolar

Y=-40(1.75)+122=52bananas per day

Find the complex fourth roots \[-\sqrt{3}+\iota \] in polar form.
____ [38]

Let z=-\sqrt3+i. Then

|z|=\sqrt{(-\sqrt3)^2+1^2}=2

z lies in the second quadrant, so

\arg z=\pi+\tan^{-1}\left(-\dfrac1{\sqrt3}\right)=\dfrac{5\pi}6

So we have

z=2e^{i5\pi/6}

and the fourth roots of z are

2^{1/4}e^{i(5\pi/6+k\pi)/4}

where k\in\{0,1,2,3\}. In particular, they are

2^{1/4}e^{i(5\pi/6)/4}=2^{1/4}e^{i5\pi/24}

2^{1/4}e^{i(5\pi/6+2\pi)/4}=2^{1/4}e^{i17\pi/24}

2^{1/4}e^{i(5\pi/6+4\pi)/4}=2^{1/4}e^{i29\pi/24}

2^{1/4}e^{i(5\pi/6+6\pi)/4}=2^{1/4}e^{i41\pi/24}

Solve the equation. Round to the nearest hundredth. Show work.
Burka [1]

Answer:

x=-0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

4^{-5x-7}=6^{2x-1}

We take logarithm of both sides to base 10.

\log(4^{-5x-7})=\log(6^{2x-1})

(-5x-7)\log(4)=(2x-1)\log(6)

We expand the brackets to get;

-5x\log(4)-7\log(4)=2x\log(6)-\log(6)

Group similar terms;

-7\log(4)+\log(6)=2x\log(6)+5x\log(4)

-7\log(4)+\log(6)=(2\log(6)+5\log(4))x

\frac{-7\log(4)+\log(6)}{(2\log(6)+5\log(4))}=x

x=-0.752478

To the nearest hundredth.

x=-0.75

A car rents for $40 per day plus 18¢ per mile. You are on a daily budge of $67. What mileage will allow you to stay within your
IrinaVladis [17]
Out of your $67 for the day, $40 of it goes to the rental before you even drive it out of the lot.  That leaves you $27 a day for mileage.

$27 / $0.18 per mile = <u>150 miles</u> per day, tops.

4. Asia is designing a triangular-shaped window with a height of 15 inches and
Anni [7]

Answer:

18in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Height h= 15 in

Area= 135 in^2

The expression for the area is given as

Area= 1/2 Base * Height

substitute

135= 1/2* Base*15

135= 7.5 Base

Base= 135/7.5

Base=  18 in

Hence the base is 18in
