p = 2l + 2w
P=Perimeter
L=Length
W=Width

Hints given are P= 76, L=20 so 2L=40

76=40+2w
76-40=2w
36=2w
18=w

The formula of a perimeter of a rectangle:

P = 2(w + l)

We have P = 76 cm and l = 20 cm.

Substitute:

2(w + 20) = 76       <em>use distributive property</em>

(2)(w) + (2)(20) = 76

2w + 40 = 76     <em>subtract 40 from both sides</em>

2w = 36       <em>divide both sies by 2</em>

w = 18

<h3>Answer: the width = 18 cm</h3>

A restaurant operator in Accra has found out that during the partial lockdown, if she sells a plate of her food for GH¢20 each,
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, note this parameters from the question.

We let x = number of $5 increases and number of 10 decreases in plates sold.

Our Revenue equation is:

R(x) = (300-10x)(10+5x)

We expand the above equation into a quadratic equation by multiplying each bracket:

R(x) = 3000 + 1500x - 3000x - 1500x^2

R(x) = -1500x^2 - 1500x + 3000 (collect like terms)

Next we simplify, by dividing through by -1500

= 1500x^2/1500 - 1500x/1500 + 3000/1500

= X^2 - x + 2

X^2 - x + 2 = 0

Next, we find the axis of symmetry using the formula x = -b/(2*a) where b = 1, a = 1

X = - (-1)/2*1

X = 1/2

Number of $5 increases = $5x1/2 = $2.5

=$2.5 + $20 = $22.5 ticket price gives max revenue.
