While grading her students' most recent quiz on equation solving, Mrs. Jones calculated that approximately forty percent of her

EastWind [94]

The given equation is,

$3(-n+4)+5n=2n$

Part 1:

Solve the above equation for n.

Using distributive property of multiplication,

$\begin{gathered} -3n+3\times4+5n=2n \\ -3n+12+5n=2n \end{gathered}$

Now, group the like terms.

$-3n+5n-2n+12=0$

Now, add the like terms.

$\begin{gathered} -5n+5n+12=0 \\ 0=-12 \end{gathered}$

0=-12 is a false statement.

Since we obtained a false statement, the given equation has no solution.

So, option b is correct.

Part 2:

The option (a) is n=3.

If while solving an equation, a single value is obtained for the variable, then the equation has only a single solution. If n=3 is obtained after solving the equation, then the student should chose option (a) as the answer.

The option (b) is "no solution".

While solving an equation, if we obtain an equation which is mathematically false, then the equation will have no solution. So, no solution is chosen when no value is obtained for n and the final equation is mathematically false.

The option (c) is "infinitely many solutions".

While solving an equation, if we obtain an equation which is mathematically correct such as 0=0, 7=7 etc., then the equation will have infinietly many solutions. So, infinitely many solutions is chosen when no value is obtained for n and the final equation is mathematically correct.

The rate of change of revenue (in dollars per calculator) from the sale of x calculators is R′(x)=(x+1)ln(x+1)R ′ (x)=(x+1)ln(x+

jekas [21]

Answer:

Total revenue = $\frac{169}{2}\ln(13)-\frac{169}{4}$ dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

$R'(x)=(x+1)\ln(x+1)$

Integrate with respect to $x$ .

$R(x)=$ ∫ $(x+1)\ln(x+1)$ dx

Take $x+1=u$

Differentiate with respect to $x$

$dx=du$

So,

$R(x)=$ ∫ $u\ln(u)\,du$

Use integration by parts: ∫f g dx = f∫ g dx-∫(∫g dx)f' dx

Therefore,

$R(x)=$ $\frac{u^2}{2}\ln(u)$ $-$ ∫ $\frac{u^2}{2}\frac{1}{u}\,du$

= $\frac{u^2}{2}\ln(u)$ $-$ ∫ $\frac{u}{2}\,du$

Put $u=x+1$

$R(x)= \frac{(x+1)^2}{2}\ln(x+1)-\frac{(x+1)^2}{4}$

To find total revenue from the sale of the first 12 calculators, put $x=12$

$R(x)= \frac{(12+1)^2}{2}\ln(12+1)-\frac{(12+1)^2}{4}\\\\= \frac{(13)^2}{2}\ln(13)-\frac{(13)^2}{4}\\\\=\frac{169}{2}\ln(13)-\frac{169}{4}$

Total revenue = $\frac{169}{2}\ln(13)-\frac{169}{4}$ dollars

Factor f(x) = 4x3 + 15x2 – 24x + 5 into linear factors given that - 5 is a zero of f(x).15f(x) = 4x3 + 15x2 - 24x + 5 =(Factor c

Basile [38]

If x=-5 is a zero, then the first factor of the polynomial would be (x + 5 )

To find the other two factors we can divide the polynomial by the expression (x+5).

Using synthetic division, we have:

-5 I 4 15 -24 5 (Coefficients of the dividend)

I -20 25 -5 (Multiplying each coefficient by the results of the substraction and adding)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4 -5 1 0 (Coefficients of the quotient)

The result of the division is 4x^2 - 5x + 1. Factoring it, we have:

4x^2 - 4x -x + 1 (Separating -5x into -x and -4x)

4x (x - 1) - (x -1) (Factoring each pair of terms)

(x-1)(4x-1) (Factoring using the common factor)

So the answer would be:

(x + 5 )(x-1)(4x-1)
