Answer:
Breadth = 8 cm
Length = 17 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given rectangle:
Breadth = x cm
Length = x + 9 cm
Area = length * breadth
= x * (x + 9)
= x² + 9x
Rectangle with length and breadth increased:
Breadth = x + 3 cm
Length = x + 9 + 3 = x + 12 cm
Area = 84 + (x² + 9x) cm²
(x +3) * (x +12) = 84 + x² + 9x
Use FOIL method
x*x + x*12 + 3*x + 3*12 = 84 + x² + 9x
x² + 12x + 3x + 36 = 84 + x² + 9x {add the like terms}
x² + 15x + 36 = 84 + x² + 9x
x² + 15x + 36 - 84 - x² - 9x = 0
6x - 48 = 0
6x = 48
x = 48/6
x = 8
Breadth = x = 8 cm
Length = x + 9 = 8 +9 = 17 cm
Answer:
a. Based on this information, construct a linear demand equation for Yoda vs. Alien T-shirts, and hence obtain the weekly revenue R as a function of the unit price x.
- y = 640 - 80x ⇒ demand equation
- xy = - 80x² + 640x ⇒ weekly revenue
b. The university administration charges the fraternities a weekly fee of $500 for use of the Student Center. Write down the monthly profit P as a function of the unit price x, and hence determine how much the fraternities should charge to obtain the largest possible weekly profit. What is the largest possible weekly profit?
Step-by-step explanation:
first, we must determine the slope = (400 - 240) / (3 - 5) = 160 / -2 = -80
the demand equation:
y - 240 = -80 (x - 5)
y = -80x + 400 + 240
y = 640 - 80x
total weekly revenue:
xy = -80x² + 640x
xy - 500 = -80x² + 640x - 500
max. profit ⇒ x = -640 / (2 x -80) = -640 / -160 = 4
maximum weekly profit = -80($4²) + 640($4) - $500 = -$1,280 + $2,560 - $500 = $780
An estimate here would be 73,500+ 28,000= 101,500 but the actual answer would be 101,269
Answer:
x=42
y=59
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so first things first
the angle that is equal to 2x-11 is vertical to the angle that is equal to 73
meaning that these angles are congruent
so we setup an equation
2x-11=73 and solve for x
step 1 add 11 to each side
73+11=84
-11+11 cancels out
now we have
84=2x
step 2 divide each side by 2
84/2=42
so x=42
so we know that the angles that are listed bellow
(73, 48 and y)
are supplements meaning that they will add up to equal 180 so to find y we subtract the given angles
180-73-48=59 so y=59
