Answer:

BC = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

since B is the midpoint of AC, then AB = BC

AC = 8x - 20 & AB = 3x - 1

AC = AB + BC or 2AB

8x - 20 = 2(3x - 1)

8x - 20 = 6x - 2

subtract 6x form each side

2x - 20 = -2

add 20 to each side

2x - 20 + 20 = -2 + 20

2x = 18

x = 9

BC = 3x - 1

BC = 27 - 1

BC = 26

AC = 52

Write the expression as either the sine, cosine, or tangent of a single angle.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

There exists a trigonometric identity which states that,
sin (A - B) = sin A cos B - cos A sin B
This is very similar to the given expression with A equal to 57° and B equal to 13°. The simplified form of the angle is,
sin (57° - 13°) = sin 44°

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

$204

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is at what price x will the company maximize revenue.

The revenue function is:

$R(x) = 4,080x-10x^2$

The price for which the derivate of the revenue function is zero is the price the maximizes revenue:

$R(x) = 4,080x-10x^2\\\frac{dR(x)}{dx}=0=4,080-20x\\x=\frac{4,080}{20}\\ x=\$204$

The company will maximize its revenue when the price is $204.
