Answer:

x = 1/4 ± 1/4√233

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 5)(x - 3) = 14

~Use FOIL on the left side

2x² - 6x + 5x - 15 = 14

~Combine like terms

2x² - x - 15 = 14

~Subtract 14 to both sides

2x² - x - 29 = 0

~Use the quadratic formula and simplify

x = 1/4 ± 1/4√233

Best of Luck!

Natalka [10]

Answer: a) c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1, b) 13 units

Step-by-step explanation: Revenue function = R(x) = 0.21x

Profit function = p(x) = 0.086 - 1.1

Cost function = c(x) =?

A)

Recall that profit = total revenue - total cost

Hence, total cost = total revenue - profit

c(x) = 0.21x - (0.086x - 1.1)

c(x) = 0.21x - 0.086x + 1.1

c(x) = 0.124x + 1.1

B)

Break even point is the point where total revenue equals total cost

R(x) = c(x)

0.21x = 0.124x + 1.1

0.21x - 0.124x = 1.1

0.086x = 1.1

x = 1.1/0.086

x = 12.79 which is approximately 13 units

Use the remainder theorem to divide 5x^2+9x-2 by x+3. what is the remainder?
Anna [14]

Answer:

A)16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x)=5x^2+9x-2

Remainder theorem states that when f(x) is divided by x-a then the remainder can be calculated by calculating f(a).

Now Using the remainder theorem to divide 5x^2+9x-2 by x+3 to find the remainder:

f(x)=5x^2+9x-2

f(-3) = 5(-3)^2 +9(-3) -2

       =5(9) - 27 -2

       = 45-29

       = 16 !

Find out six rational numbers lying between -4/8 and -3/4
rjkz [21]

Answer:

-41/80, -45/80, -48/80, -51/80, -55/80, -59/80

Step-by-step explanation:

-4/8, -3/4 = -4/8, -6/8

               = -40/80, -60/80

∴ Rational numbers between -40/80 and -60/80 = -41/80, -45/80, -48/80, -51/80, -55/80, -59/80.

Answer:

g(n) = - 19 + (n - 1)*6

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to do this is to try a couple and then see if you can make some sort of equation that follows the rule.

g(1) = - 19

=============

g(2) = g(2 - 1) + 6

g(2) = g(1) + 6

g(2) = -19 + 6

g(2) = -13

=============

g(3) = g(2) + 6

g(3) = -13 + 6

g(3) = - 7

==========

g(4) = g(3) + 6

g(4) = - 7 + 6

g(4) = - 1

==========

g(5) = 5

g(6) =11

===========

Now the hard part. You have to start  with - 19

The nth term is g(n) = - 19 + (n - 1)*6

Now see if it works.

g(7) = - 19 + (7 - 1)*6

g(7) = - 19 + 6 * 6

g(7) = -19 + 36

g(7) = 17

Is that correct?

g(7) = g(n - 1) + 6

g(7) = g(6) + 6

g(7) = 11 + 6

g(7) = 17 Seems to be the same as the explicit formula gives.
