There are 5 large dogs and 3 small dogs

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Let "S" be the number of small dogs

Let "L" be the number of large dogs

<em><u>Given that There are a total of 8 small and large dogs</u></em>

So we can frame a equation as:

number of small dogs + number of large dogs = 8

S + L = 8 ------- eqn 1

<em><u>You realize there are 2 more large dogs than small dogs</u></em>

Number of large dogs = 2 + number of small dogs

L = 2 + S  -------- eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2 to find values of "L" and "S"</u></em>

Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1

S + 2 + S = 8

2S + 2 = 8

2S = 6

<h3>S = 3</h3>

Substitute S = 3 in eqn 2

L = 2 + 3 = 5

<h3>L = 5</h3>

Thus there are 5 large dogs and 3 small dogs

The revenue for a company producing widgets is given by y = -20x2 - 50x + 200, where x is the price in dollars for each widget.
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The  price is   x =  $2.779

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  revenue is  y = - 20x^2  - 50 x + 200

   The cost of production is  y = 30 x - 10

Generally at break even point the cost of production is equal to the  revenue

So

      -20x^2 -50x + 200 =  30x-10

=>   20x^2 +20 -210 = 0

Using the quadratic formula to solve this equation we have that

       x =  $2.779

How to find only f on a graph that defines a function
puteri [66]

Answer:

Read Below

Step-by-step explanation:

we can represent a function using a graph. Graphs display many input-output pairs in a small space. The visual information they provide often makes relationships easier to understand. We typically construct graphs with the input values along the horizontal axis and the output values along the vertical axis.

The vertical line test can be used to determine whether a graph represents a function. A vertical line includes all points with a particular

x

value. The

y

value of a point where a vertical line intersects a graph represents an output for that input

x

value. If we can draw any vertical line that intersects a graph more than once, then the graph does not define a function because that

x

value has more than one output. A function has only one output value for each input value.

What is the value of x
mezya [45]

Answer:

x=9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the answer, we know that 6x + 4x - 5 = 90

Next we want to combine like terms: 10x - 5 = 90.

Now we have to add 5 to 90 in order to get x on its own.  10x = 95

Now solve for x by dividing 95 by 10: x=9.5
