Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of designer T shirts.

To break even,

Total Cost = Total Sales

Fixed Cost + Variable Cost = Total Sales

given the promotional advertising is classified under fixed cost,

500 + 4.25x = 15x  \\ 15x = 500 + 4.25x \\ 15x - 4.25x = 500 \\ 10.75x = 500 \\ x = 500 \div 10.75 \\  = 46.5 \\  = 47 \: (round \: off \: to \: nearest \: whole \: number)

Solve y=-3x² + 4.5x – 20<br> Use the Quadratic formula
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

x=0.75 \pm 2.47067i

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Formula: x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

√-1 is imaginary number i

Step 1: Define

y = -3x² + 4.5x - 20

a = -3

b = 4.5

c = -20

Step 2: Substitute and Evaluate

x=\frac{-4.5 \pm \sqrt{4.5^2-4(-3)(-20)} }{2(-3)}

x=\frac{-4.5 \pm \sqrt{20.25-240} }{-6}

x=\frac{-4.5 \pm \sqrt{-219.75} }{-6}

x=\frac{-4.5 \pm \sqrt{219.75}(\sqrt{-1} ) }{-6}

x=\frac{-4.5 \pm i\sqrt{219.75} }{-6}

x=\frac{4.5 \pm i14.824 }{6}

x=0.75 \pm 2.47067i

(×+2) +(4×-122)=180 need help with this problem
alina1380 [7]
So first you need to open the brackets, so it would be x+2+4x-122=180. Then we can add the 4x and the other x to make 5x, and then by doing 2-122 we get -120. This gives us the equation 5x-120=180. We then isolate the variable by moving the -120 to the other side of the equation and becoming a positive, so it would look like 5x=180+120. Then, we have 5x=300. 300 divides by 5 is 60 making X=60. Hope this helps!

Answer:

Check below

Step-by-step explanation:

That's too bad you haven't attached a rectangle.

Here's an example, with the data you've typed in.

1) When we dilate a rectangle we either grows it or shrink it through a scale factor.

Check the first picture below.

The New Dilated Rectangle A'B'C'D' will follow its coordinates, when the <u>Center of Dilation is at its origin(Middle):</u>

D_{A'B'C'D'}=\frac{1}{2}(x,y)

2) But In this question, <u>B is the center of Dilation</u>. So, Since B is the Dilation Point B=B' .  And More importantly:

\bar{AB}=\frac{1}{2}\bar{A'B'}\\\bar{CD}=\frac{1}{2}\bar{C'D'}\\\bar{AC}=\frac{1}{2}\bar{A'C'}\\\bar{CD}=\frac{1}{2}\bar{C'D'}\\

3) So check the pictures below for a better understanding.

Volunteers helped clean up 8.2 kg of trash in one neighborhood and 11 1/2 kg in another. They sent 1 1/4 kg to be recycled and t
Ivan

Answer: 18.45\ kg or 18\frac{9}{20}\ kg

Step-by-step explanation:

We can convert from mixed numbers to decimal numbers:

11\frac{1}{2}\ kg=(11+0.5)\ kg=11.5\ kg\\\\1\frac{1}{4}\ kg=(1+0.25)\ kg=1.25\ kg

Since they cleaned up 8.2 kilograms of trash in one neighborhood and 11.5 kilograms in another neighborhood, the total trash they cleaned up was:

Total=8.2\ kg+11.5\ kg\\\\Total=19.7\ kg

We know that they sent 1.25 kilograms to be recycled. Then, in order to calculate how many kilograms of trash they threw away, we must subtract the total kilograms of trash they cleaned up and the kilograms they sent to be recycled.

Then:

19.7\ kg-1.25\ kg=18.45\ kg or 18\frac{9}{20}\ kg
