Answer:

The company must sell 60 or 70 items to obtain a weekly profit of 200.

Step-by-step explanation:

The profit is the difference between the revenue and the cost of a given task, therefore:

\text{profit} = R - C\\\text{profit} = 66*x - 0.2*x^2 - (40*x + 640)\\\text{profit} = 66*x - 0.2*x^2 - 40*x - 640\\\text{profit} = - 0.2*x^2 + 26*x - 640

To have a profit of 200, we need to sell:

-0.2*x^2 + 26*x - 640 = 200\\-0.2*x^2 + 26*x -840 = 0\text{ } *\frac{-1}{0.2}\\x^2 -130 + -4200 = 0\\x_{1,2} = \frac{-(-130) \pm \sqrt{(-130)^2 - 4*1*(-4200)}}{2*1}\\x_{1,2} = \frac{130 \pm \sqrt{16900 + 16800}}{2}\\x_{1,2} = \frac{130 \pm \sqrt{100}}{2}\\x_{1,2} = \frac{130 \pm 10}{2}\\x_{1} = \frac{130 + 10}{2} = \frac{140}{2} = 70\\ x_{2} = \frac{130 - 10}{2} = \frac{120}{2}  = 60

The company must sell 60 or 70 items to obtain a weekly profit of 200.

I really need help with number 12
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

7.8125 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 5 gallons would cover 1600 square-foot wall so 1 gallon would cover:

1600 / 5 = 320 square-foot wall.

So to cover 2500 square foot-wall, we need in total of:

2500 / 320 = 7.8125 gallons of paint

Hope this can help you :3

How would you write 2x^2-7=11 in both quadratic property and square root property?
dangina [55]

Answer:

Quadratic Property 2x^2-18=0

Square Root Property x=√9 or x=+3 or x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Property or a quadratic Function is of the form ax^2+bx+c=0. So our task is to equate the given expression to zero. We can equate the expression to zero by subtracting 11 on both the sides. In doing so, we get 2x^2-18=0. This is the quadratic Property of the given Expression.

Square property is finding the value for x. we have make x equal to some value. Since we already have the quadratic Property as 2x^2-18=0, we can use this to find the value of x.

so, 2x^2=18

or x^2=18/2=9

or x=√9= +3 or -3.
