Answer:

The minimum number of widgets for the company to earn more than 50 dollars = 104 widgets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete Question

Inequality

Imagine the polynomial function shown represents the profits, in y dollars, earned by the production of x widgets.

y = -0.04x² + 40x - 3600

What is the minimum number of widgets for the company to earn more than 50 dollars?

Solution

For the profit to be more than 50

y > 50

-0.04x² + 40x - 3600 > 50

-0.04x² + 40x - 3650 > 0

0.04x² - 40x + 3650 < 0

(x - 898.4) (x - 101.6) < 0

Using the inequality table to obtain the required solution to this inequality

Eqn | x < 101.6 | 101.6 < x < 898.4 | x > 898.4

(x - 898.4) | -ve | - ve | + ve

(x - 101.6) | -ve | + ve | + ve

(x-898.4)(x-101.6) | +ve | - ve | +ve

Hence, the inequality that satisfies the equation of (x - 898.4) (x - 101.6) < 0, that is, negative, is 101.6 < x < 898.4.

And from this range, the minimum number of widgets for the company to earn more than 50 dollars = 102 widgets.

But 102 widgets give a profit of 13 dollars, 103 widgets give a profit of 47 dollars and it is until 104 widgets that the profits exceed 50 dollars truly.

Hope this Helps!!!

Solve two sevenths times four sixths . (2 points) Group of answer choices six forty seconds eight forty seconds six thirteenths

Maksim231197 [3]

Given:

The statement is "two sevenths times four sixths".

To find:

The value of the product.

Solution:

Two sevenths times four sixths can be written as:

$\dfrac{2}{7}\times \dfrac{4}{6}$

It can be rewritten as:

$\dfrac{2}{7}\times \dfrac{4}{6}=\dfrac{2\times 4}{7\times 6}$

$\dfrac{2}{7}\times \dfrac{4}{6}=\dfrac{8}{42}$

The answer of given expression is eight forty seconds.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Solve the triangle A = 2 B = 9 C =8

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

$\begin{gathered} A=\text{ 12}\degree \\ B=\text{ 114}\degree \\ C=54\degree \end{gathered}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the angles of the given triangle, we can use the law of cosines:

$\begin{gathered} \cos (C)=\frac{a^2+b^2-c^2}{2ab} \\ \cos (A)=\frac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{2bc} \\ \cos (B)=\frac{c^2+a^2-b^2}{2ca} \end{gathered}$

Then, given the sides a=2, b=9, and c=8.

$\begin{gathered} \cos (A)=\frac{9^2+8^2-2^2}{2\cdot9\cdot8} \\ \cos (A)=\frac{141}{144} \\ A=\cos ^{-1}(\frac{141}{144}) \\ A=11.7 \\ \text{ Rounding to the nearest degree:} \\ A=12º \end{gathered}$

For B:

$\begin{gathered} \cos (B)=\frac{8^2+2^2-9^2}{2\cdot8\cdot2} \\ \cos (B)=\frac{13}{32} \\ B=\cos ^{-1}(\frac{13}{32}) \\ B=113.9\degree \\ \text{Rounding:} \\ B=114\degree \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} \cos (C)=\frac{2^2+9^2-8^2}{2\cdot2\cdot9} \\ \cos (C)=\frac{21}{36} \\ C=\cos ^{-1}(\frac{21}{36}) \\ C=54.3 \\ \text{Rounding:} \\ C=\text{ 54}\degree \end{gathered}$
