The answer is going to be <span>(2,2) </span>
Your picture has several issues.
- x is not defined. It appears to be the number of apartments rented.
- R(x) is defined two different ways. The first way, it looks like it is the revenue from a single apartment. The second way, it looks like it is the revenue from the entire apartment complex.
- The derivative is in error. It should be -20x +2000. In any event, this is not the derivative you want. You're not trying to maximize revenue; you're trying to maximize profit.
- It might be useful to write an equation for profit: P(x) = R(x) -200x = -10x² +1800x. Then when you go to maximize it, your derivative will be P'(x) = 0 = -20x +1800 ⇒ x = 90.
Your answer is correct, but the path you followed to get there has a few potholes.
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
-7X + 6= 27
Subtract 6 from each side
-7x +6-6 = 27 -6
-7x = 21
divide each side by -7
-7x/-7 = 21/-7
x = -3
Factoring x2+5x-1
The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, +5x its coefficient is 5 .
The last term, "the constant", is -1
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -1 = -1
Step-2 : Find two factors of -1 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is 5 .
-1 + 1 = 0
Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored
Final result :
x2 + 5x - 1
This is what did but I not sure it's right?!
The answer is 1.2 b/c you have to solve x by simplifying both sides of the equation and isolating the variable.
