There are 50 different possible debating teams that could be selected as obtained using COMBINATION.

Since there are EQUAL number of juniors and seniors ;

Then we have 5 of each.

Here, the order of arrangement DOES NOT matter, Hence, we use COMBINATION

since the team MUST contain 4 SENIORS and 2 JUNIORS

4 Seniors from 5 = 5C4 = 5

2 Juniors from 5 = 5C2 = 10

Hence, (5C4 * 5C2) = 5 * 10 = 50

Hence, there are 50 different possible debating teams that could be selected.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

Number of ovens must be manufactured in a given week to generate a profit of $1610 is 70

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

A small-appliance manufacturer finds that the profit P (in dollars) generated by producing x microwave ovens per week is given by the formula

$P=\frac{1}{10}x(300-x)$

provided that 0 ≤ x ≤ 200

We are given

profit is $1610

so, we can set P=1610

and then we can solve for x

$1610=\frac{1}{10}x(300-x)$

Multiply both sides by 10

$1610\cdot \:10=\frac{1}{10}x\left(300-x\right)\cdot \:10$

$16100=x\left(300-x\right)$

$16100=300x-x^2$

$-x^2+300x-16100=0$

now, we can factor it

$(x-70)(x-230)=0$

we can solve for x

and we get

$x=70,x=230$

Since, x=230 does not lie on 0 ≤ x ≤ 200

So, we will consider only x=70

So,

Number of ovens must be manufactured in a given week to generate a profit of $1610 is 70

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) sub in 600 for 6

600-25/40 =14.375

b) switch x and y

x=y-25/40

Solve for y

40x=y-25

y=40x+25

c)Plug in 2.5 for z(x)

2.5= x-25/40

100=x-25

x=125
