Answer:

C) p + 24 = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of cookies baked = Number of cookies Ellie baked + Number of cookies Jamie baked

Ellie baked 24 chocolate chip cookies.

Jamie baked p peanut butter cookies.

Total of 56 cookies.

Hence:

56 = p + 24

Therefore, the equation that can be solved for p to find the number of cookies Jamie baked is

p + 24 = 56

Option C is the correct option

ki77a [65]
The format is y = mx + b
where y would be your C
x would be your M
m would be the price per mile (2.20)
and b would be your initial fee (2.75)

put this together in that format and we get
C = 2.20M + 2.75

The volume (in cubic inches) of a shipping box is modeled by V =2x³ -19x² +39x, where x is the length (in inches). Determine the
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The values of x for which the model is 0 ≤ x ≤ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function for the volume of the shipping box is given as follows;

V = 2·x³ - 19·x² + 39·x

The function will make sense when V ≥ 0, which is given as follows

When V = 0, x = 0

Which gives;

0 = 2·x³ - 19·x² + 39·x

0 = 2·x² - 19·x + 39

0 = x² - 9.5·x + 19.5

From an hint obtained by plotting the function, we have;

0 = (x - 3)·(x - 6.5)

We check for the local maximum as follows;

dV/dx = d(2·x³ - 19·x² + 39·x)/dx = 0

6·x² - 38·x + 39 = 0

x² - 19/3·x + 6.5 = 0

x = (19/3 ±√((19/3)² - 4 × 1 × 6.5))/2

∴ x = 1.288, or 5.045

At x = 1.288, we have;

V = 2·1.288³ - 19·1.288² + 39·1.288 ≈ 22.99

V ≈ 22.99 in.³

When x = 5.045, we have;

V = 2·5.045³ - 19·5.045² + 39·5.045≈ -30.023

Therefore;

V > 0 for 0 < x < 3 and V < 0 for 3 < x < 6.5

The values of x for which the model makes sense and V ≥ 0 is 0 ≤ x ≤ 3.

It would take Delia 3 hours longer to re tile their bathroom by herself than it would for kari to retile on her own. If they wor
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

6hours

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Suppose it took Karl x hours to retile her bathroom,

Then it will take Della 3 hours longer i.e (3+x) hours

If Della and Karl work together or will take them 2 hours

The objective is to determine how long it will take Delia to retile the bathroom alone?

∴

\dfrac{1}{x}+\dfrac{1}{3+x}= \dfrac{1}{2}

\dfrac{x+3+x}{x(3+x)}= \dfrac{1}{2}

\dfrac{2x+3}{3x+x^2}= \dfrac{1}{2}

By cross multiplying, we have:

2(2x+3) = 3x+x²

4x + 6 = 3x + x²

3x + x² - 4x - 6

x² - x - 6 = 0

Using quadratic equation

x² -3x +2x - 6 = 0

x(x - 3) + 2(x - 3) = 0

(x +2) (x - 3) = 0

x + 2 = 0 or x - 3 = 0

x = -2 or x = 3

Since we are concerned about the positive integer,

Then, Karl = x = 3 hours while Della which is (3+x) = 3+3 = 6hours
