Answer:
-9
Step-by-step explanation:
you're taking away 7 each time, so -2-7=-9
Answer:
4877 fish
Step-by-step explanation:
Each year, the fish population is multiplied by 1-6% = 0.94, so after 8 years it has been multiplied by 0.94^8 ≈ 0.609569.
At that time, the population is ...
8000×0.609569 ≈ 4877 . . . fish
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.
f(x) is a quadratic equation with the x-side squared and a is positive which means that the graph of the function is a parabola facing up. The range of f(x) is given by {y|y ≥ k}, where k is the y-coordinate of the vertex.
, written in vertex form is
, where (h, k) = (-1, -11)
Therefore, range ={y|y ≥ -11}
Let x be the amount of cement and y be the amount of sand. If <span>the ratio of cement to sand for mortar is 1:3, then
and y=3x.

So, if <span>Sandy puts in x=7 shovels of cement, then she puts
shovels of sand.
