A scale factor of 3 means that the new shape is three times the size of the original. To calculate the Scale Factor, we use the following: You can get the 'big' and 'small' from the corresponding sides on the figures. So just get your # and multiply it by 3
Answer: (4, -9)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Use elimination method. Manipulate one (or both) equations to eliminate one of the variables and solve for the remaining variable. <em>I will be eliminating y</em>
6x + y = 15 → 2(6x + y = 15) → 12x + 2y = 30
-7x - 2y = -10 → 1(-7x + 2y = -10) → <u> -7x - 2y = -10</u>
5x = 20
x = 4
Next, replace "x" with "4" into either equation and solve for y.
6(4) + y = 15
24 + y = 15
y = -9
<u>Check:</u>
Plug in x = 4 and y = -9 into the other equation to verify it makes a true statement.
-7x - 2y = -10
-7(4) - 2(-9) = -10
-28 - -18 = -10
-28 + 18 = -10
-10 = -10 
We can get the Profit function P(x) from the Hint.
the Profit function is: P(x) = xp(x) - C(x) = -0.00041 x2 + 4x - 600
Attention: don't get confuse by the <span>big P of the profit with the small p of the price</span> To calculate the maximum profit, we need to find the derivative of P(x) then set it to 0 then find x: dP(x)/dx = -0.00082 x + 4 = 0 , so x = 4/0.00082 = 4,878 copies each month.







The absolute value of a real number a is a when a≥0, or -a when a<0. The absolute value of -6 is 6. The absolute value of 4 is 4.
