A retailer who sells backpacks estimates that by selling them for x dollars each, she will be able to sell 100−x backpacks each
zvonat [6]

Answer:

x = 50

R = $2500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question a quadratic equation,

−x² + 100x

To find the selling price, x, which will give highest revenue, y, we will find maximum value of parabola curve −x² + 100x

The value of -b/2a tells you the value x of the vertex of the function

−x² + 100x

here a = -1

        b = 100

Selling price = -(100)/2(-1)

                    =   50

 

R = −(50)² + 100(50)

  = 2500

Can I Get A Little Help Here?
Musya8 [376]
Hey there :)

We know the formula for simple interest is 
I = prt
{ The picture includes what each stands for }

Lehena:
Initial amount = $100
Interest rate = 2.5% = \frac{2.5}{100} = 0.025
Time = 3 years
I = ( 100 )( 0.025 )( 3 )
  = 7.5$

Total = $100 + $7.5 = $107.5

Marty:
Initial amount = $100
Interest rate = 2% = \frac{2}{100} = 0.02
Time = 3 years
I = ( 100 )( 0.02 )( 3 ) 
  = $6

Total = $100 + $6 = $106

How much more than Marty did Lehena receive?
= Total Amount of Lehena - Total Amount of Marty
= 107.5 - 106
= $1.5

Your answer will be option B) $1.50

If ƒ(x) = 2x, then ƒ -1(x) =<br><br> -2x<br> ½x<br> x - 2
kap26 [50]

Answer: second option

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse function of the given function f(x):

f(x)=2x

You need to:

Substitute f(x)=y into the function:

 y=2x

Now, you need  to solve for "x", to do this, you must divide both sides of the function by 2:

\frac{y}{2}=\frac{2x}{2}\\\\\frac{y}{2}=x

Now, replace "x" with "y" and replace "y" with "x":

\frac{x}{2}=y

Therefore, substituting y=f^{-1}(x) you get:

f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x}{2} or  f^{-1}(x)=\frac{1}{2}x
