Answer:

Dan has £54 left

Step-by-step explanation:

Dan's weekly wages are £540.

Then his spending includes (2/5)w + (5/10()w, or (9/10)w, and this is subtracted from Dan's wages:  £540 - (expenses)

                                                    £540 - (9/10)(£540) = £54

Dan has £54 left after having spent 9/10 of his weekly wages on rent and food.

Suppose total benefits and total costs are given by b(y) = 100y − 8y2 and c(y) = 10y2. what is the maximum level of net benefits
olga nikolaevna [1]
Whenever you face the problem that deals with maxima or minima you should keep in mind that minima/maxima of a function is always a point where it's derivative is equal to zero.
To solve your problem we first need to find an equation of net benefits. Net benefits are expressed as a difference between total benefits and total cost. We can denote this function with B(y).

B(y)=b-c
B(y)=100y-18y²

Now that we have a net benefits function we need find it's derivate with respect to y.

\frac{dB(y)}{dy} =100-36y

Now we must find at which point this function is equal to zero.

0=100-36y
36y=100
y=2.8

Now that we know at which point our function reaches maxima we just plug that number back into our equation for net benefits and we get our answer.

B(2.8)=100(2.8)-18(2.8)²=138.88≈139.

One thing that always helps is to have your function graphed. It will give you a good insight into how your function behaves and allow you to identify minima/maxima points.

Manuel sold 200liters of soda at a baseball game. How much is this in milliliters?Be sure to include the correct unit in your an
Sever21 [200]
1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters, so we can multiply 200 liters by 1000 to get 200000 milliliters, which should be your answer. In general, the "milli-" prefix denotes a factor of one thousand times smaller, so 1 meter is equal to 1000 millimeters, 1 second is equal to 1000 milliseconds, and so on.
