A.) R(20) = -10(20)^2 + 800(20) = -10(400) + 16000 = -4000 + 16000 = $12,000

R(25) = -10(25)^2 + 800(25) = -10(625) + 20000 = -6250 + 20000 = $13,750

R(30) = -10(30)^2 + 800(30) = -10(900) + 24000 = -9000 + 24000 = $15,000

b.) For maximum revenue, dR/dp = 0
dR/dp = -20p + 800 = 0
20p = 800
p = 40

Therefore, the maximum revenue will be recorded when the price is set at $40.

When filling your gas tank, if you pay c dollars for g gallons of gas, you have the following table.
Ksenya-84 [330]

Option D statement "A 12-gallon tank would cost $47.40 to fill completely" is true.

<h3>What is a domain?</h3>

The whole of the independent variable's possible values makes up the domain of a function.

For the given data we need to find which of the given statements are true.

From option A:

The domain is {4, 8, 11, 15}.

The domain is all possible x values so this would be 0 to infinity as you can pay for more gallons not just to that certain set of numbers.

Therefore, option A is False.

From option B:

An 11-gallon tank would cost $44.00 to fill completely.

From the given table we can see that 11-gallon tank costs $43.45.

Therefore, option B is False.

From option C:

A 9.1-gallon fill-up would cost $35.49.

To find 9.1 gallons we need to find the cost of 1-gallon.

That is, 15.80/4 = $3.95 (Given in the table)

Now the cost of 9.1 gallon tank is $3.95 x 9.1 = $35.95 not $35.49

Therefore, option C is False.

From option D:

A 12-gallon tank would cost $47.40 to fill completely.

We found that 1 gallon is $3.95.

$3.95 x 12 = $47.40

Therefore, option D is True.

Hence, from the given statements option D is True.

satela [25.4K]

Answer: She needed 144 square feet of carpet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Maria is buying new carpet. Her bedroom is in the shape of a square.

The length of each side is 12 feet.

We know that the area of square = (side)^2

So , the area of the bedroom = (12)^2  [which is an exponential expression]

Simplify it

The area of the bedroom = 12\times12=144\ \text{ft}^2

Also, the carpet she needed = Area of the bedroom.

Thus , She needed 144 square feet of carpet.
