Answer:

$91

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2.5 x

$25 more would + $25 to the function

60% = .6

Revenue is f(x) = 2.5x which we have to multiply by the .6

g(x) = $25 + .6 (2.5 x)

If we have 44 watermelons then we plug in 44 for x

x = 44

g(x) = $25 + .6 (2.5*44)

g(x) = $25 + .6 (110)

g(x) = 25 + 66

g(x) = $91

The profit is $91

Answer:

1. 1:4

2. y = 4 x X

3. yes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. every 1 minuet he cleans 4 shrimp

2. y is the number of shrimp and x is the time. if every miuet he cleans 4 shrimp, then that means you have to multiply the shrimp by the minuets. for example, if he spends 2 minuets, he cleans 8 shrimp because 2 x 4 = 8.

3. This is a proportional relationship because if you were to put this on a graph, it would be a strait line. for example, if you were to plot x (the time) on a line (this line would go horizontal) and y (shrimp) on the line (this line goes verticle) 1 minuet = 4 shrimp. 2 minuets = 8 shrimp. 3 minuets = 12 shrimp. 4 minuets = 16 shrimp.

i hope this helps. tell me if this is too confusing or if you need more help. have a great day :)

A roast turkey is taken from an oven when its temperature has reached 185 degrees F and is placed on a table in a room where the

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

(a) Using Newton's Law of Cooling, $\dfrac{dT}{dt} = k(T - T_s)$ , we have $\dfrac{dT}{dt} = k(T - 75)$ where T is temperature after T minutes.
Separate by dividing both sides by T - 75 to get $\dfrac{dT}{T - 75} = k dt$ . Integrate both sides to get $\ln|T - 75| = kt + C$ .

Since $T(0) = 185$ , we solve for C:
$|185 - 75| = k(0) + C\ \Rightarrow\ C = \ln 110$
So we get $\ln|T - 75| = kt + \ln 110$ . Use T(30) = 150 to solve for k:
$\ln| 150 - 75 | = 30k + \ln 110\ \Rightarrow\ \ln 75 - \ln 110= 30k \Rightarrow \\ k= \frac{1}{30}\ln (75/110) = \frac{1}{30}\ln(15/22)$

So

$\ln|T - 75| = kt + \ln 110 \Rightarrow |T - 75| = e^{kt + \ln110} \Rightarrow \\ \\
|T - 75| = 110e^{kt} \Rightarrow T - 75 = \pm110e^{(1/30)\ln(15/22)t} \Rightarrow \\
T = 75 \pm110e^{(1/30)\ln(15/22)t}$

But choose Positive because T > 75. Temp of turkey can't go under.

$T(t) = 75 + 110e^{(1/30)\ln(15/22)t} \\
T(45) = 75 + 110e^{(1/30)\ln(15/22)(45)} = 136.929 \approx 137{}^{\circ}F$

(b)

$T(t) = 75 + 110e^{(1/30)\ln(15/22)t} = 75 + 110(15/22)^{t/30} \\
100 = 75 + 110(15/22)^{t/30} \\
25 = 110(15/22)^{t/30} 
\frac{25}{110} = (15/22)^{t/30} \\
\ln(25/110) / ln(15/22) = t/30 \\
t = 30\ln(25/110) / ln(15/22) \approx 116\ \mathrm{min}$

After sales tax, an $81 cell phone costs $84.24. What is the sales tax percentage?

Igoryamba

Answer:

4% sales tax

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the original costs and subtract it from the price after sales tax.

$84.24-$81= $3.24

Divide 3.24 by 81

this gives you .04, now either multiply by 100 or move the decimal two places to the right to convert the decimal to a percentage.

Point B has coordinates (4,1). The x-coordinate of point A is -4. The distance between point A and point B is 10 units. What a

klasskru [66]

Given:

Point B has coordinates (4,1).

The x-coordinate of point A is -4.

The distance between point A and point B is 10 units.

To find:

The possible coordinates of point A.

Solution:

Let the y-coordinate of point A be y. Then the two points are A(-4,y) and B(4,1).

Distance formula:

$D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

The distance between point A and point B is 10 units.

$\sqrt{(4-(-4))^2+(1-y)^2}=10$

Taking square on both sides, we get

$(8)^2+(1-y)^2=100$

$(1-y)^2=100-64$

$(1-y)^2=36$

Taking square root on both sides, we get

$(1-y)=\pm \sqrt{36}$

$-y=\pm 6-1$

$y=1\mp 6$

$y=1-6$ and $y=1+6$

$y=-5$ and $y=7$

Therefore, the possible coordinates of point A are either (-4,-5) or (-4,7).
