The graph of the function P(x) = −0.74^2 + 22x + 75 is shown. The function models the profits, P, in thousands of dollars for a
Juliette [100K]

Answer: 5.6 ≤ x ≤ 24.13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, The graph of the functionP(x) = -0.74^2 + 22x + 75 . The function models the profits, P, in thousands of dollars for a tech company to manufacture a calculator, where x is the number of calculators produced, in thousands.

In graph , On axis → number of calculators produced

On y-axis →  profit made in thousands of dollars.

From the graph, the curve goes for y > 175 from x = 5.6 to x= 24.13 ( approx)

So, the reasonable constraints for the model 5.6 ≤ x ≤ 24.13.

So, If the company wants to keep its profits at or above $175,000, reasonable constraints for the model 5.6 ≤ x ≤ 24.13.

olivia has $180 to buy presents for her 3 sisters and 2 nephews. She wants to spend $15 more on each sister than she spends on e
koban [17]
So
if x is the number she spent on each sister and y is the number she spent on each nephew then
180=3x+2y

she wants to spend 15 dollars more on sisters than nephews
so
x=15+y
solve

we have
180=3x+2y and
x=15+y
subsitute 15+y for x

180=3(15+y)+2y
180=45+3y+2y
180=45+5y
minus 45 both sides
135=5y
divide both sides by 5
27=y

solve for x
x=15+y
x=15+27
x=42

she spent $42 on each sister
