Answer:

(x + y = 24 where x < y) (Ex. 3 + 21 = 24)

Step-by-step explanation:

For this, you can use various combinations of numbers to fulfill the requirements in the question. As long as you don't do 12 + 12, and your sum is 24, any answer will be correct. Just follow:

x + y = 24 where x < y or y < x

2/5 g+3h -6 when g=10 h=6

motikmotik

<h3>hello!</h3>

let's evaluate this expression

$\pmb{\displaystyle\frac{2}{5}g+3h-6 }$

$\pmb{\displaystyle\frac{2}{5} *10+3(6)-6}$

$\pmb{\displaystyle\frac{2}{5} *10+18-6}$

$\pmb{\displaystyle\frac{2}{5} *10+12}$

Multiply:

$\pmb{\displaystyle\frac{2}{5} *\frac{10}{1} =\frac{20}{5} =4}$

Final Step:-

$\pmb{4+12}$

$\pmb{16}$

======================================================

Hope everything is clear; if you need any explanation/clarification, kindly let me know, and I'll comment and/or edit my answer :)

La funcion que representa el beneficio obtenido por una empresa si vende x unidades de uno de sus productos es f(x)= -70x^2+2800

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

$20$

Step-by-step explanation:

La función es

$f(x)=-70x^2+2800x-45000$

Diferenciando con respecto a $x$ obtenemos

$f'(x)=-140x+2800$

Igualar con cero

$0=-140x+2800\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{2800}{140}\\\Rightarrow x=20$

Doble derivada de la función

$f''(x)=-140$

Entonces, la función es máxima cuando el número de unidades vendidas, $x=20$ ,

Use the following statements to find a compound statement for (p∨q)∧rp∨q)∧r p: 5<-3 q: All vertical angles are congruent. r:

guajiro [1.7K]

Given the compound statement <span>(p∨q)∧r
where: p: 5 < -3
q : All vertical angles are congruent.
r: 4x = 36, then x = 9.

Recall the in logic, '</span>∨' symbolises "or" while '∧' symbolises "and".

Therefore, the compound statement <span>(p∨q)∧r can be written as follows:
Either 5 < -3 or all vertical angles are congruent, and if 4x = 36, then x = 9.
</span>
