A) zeroes
P(n) = -250 n^2 + 2500n - 5250
Extract common factor:
P(n)= -250 (n^2 - 10n + 21)
Factor (find two numbers that sum -10 and its product is 21)
P(n) = -250(n - 3)(n - 7)
Zeroes ==> n - 3 = 0 or n -7 = 0
Then n = 3 and n = 7 are the zeros.
They rerpesent that if the promoter sells tickets at 3 or 7 dollars the profit is zero.
B) Maximum profit
Completion of squares
n^2 - 10n + 21 = n^2 - 10n + 25 - 4 = (n^2 - 10n+ 25) - 4 = (n - 5)^2 - 4
P(n) = - 250[(n-5)^2 -4] = -250(n-5)^2 + 1000
Maximum ==> - 250 (n - 5)^2 = 0 ==> n = 5 and P(5) = 1000
Maximum profit =1000 at n = 5
C) Axis of symmetry
Vertex = (h,k) when the equation is in the form A(n-h)^2 + k
Comparing A(n-h)^2 + k with - 250(n - 5)^2 + 1000
Vertex = (5, 1000) and the symmetry axis is n = 5.
Answer:
a⁴b⁴ - c⁴
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference of squares formula states that (a - b)(a + b) = a² - b². In this case, a = a²b² and b = c² so a² - b² = (a²b²)² - (c²)² = a⁴b⁴ - c⁴.
Answer:
The value of f(x) when x=-1 is 0.5
Therefore 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y=f(x)=
to find the f(x) when x=-1 :
That is to find f(-1)
Put x=-1 in the given function f(x)=
Therefore
The value of f(x) when x=-1 is 0.5
1/2 = 0.5
12 & 1/2 = 12 + 1/2 = 12 + 0.5 = 12.5
4 & 1/2 = 4 + 1/2 = 4 + 0.5 = 4.5
Refer to the diagram below. Note how I divided the figure into two rectangles.
The larger red rectangle is 12.5 feet by 10 feet. It has area 12.5*10 = 125 square feet.
The smaller blue rectangle has dimensions 4.5 feet by 5 feet (the 5 is from 15-10 = 5), so it has area 4.5*5 = 22.5 square feet
Now add up those individual areas to get the total area
125+22.5 = 147.5
Then convert that to a mixed number
147.5 = 147 + 0.5 = 147 + 1/2 = 147 & 1/2
<h3>The correct area is 147 & 1/2 feet</h3>
Answer:
slope of the first line: 1
slope of the second line: 0.778
slope of the third line: 0.375
slope of the fourth line: 1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope of a line is computed as follows:
slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
Therefore,
slope of the first line: [5 - (-4)]/[4 - (-5)] = 1
slope of the second line: [5 - (-2)]/[4 - (-5)] = 0.778
slope of the third line: [2 - (-1)]/[3 - (-5)] = 0.375
slope of the fourth line: [5 - (-5)]/[4 - (-4)] = 1.25
