Given ratio: 5 (goats) : (to) 8 (sheep.)

The question asked that if Giles had 32 sheep, then how many goats would he have. We can figure out how many goats he would have by cross multiplying fractions.

5    z
-  x  -
8  32

To figure out the z variable, we simply cross multiply 5 and 32, which gets us 160. Now we divide it by 8. Whatever we get for z, that is our answer for goats. The answer would be <span>20.

Al precio de p dólares por unidad, se venden x unidades de cierto artículo al mes en el mercado con p=50-0.5x ¿Cuántas unidades
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Se debe vender un mínimo mensual de 40 artículos para tener un ingreso mínimo de 1.200 dólares.

Step-by-step explanation:

De acuerdo con el enunciado, x es la cantidad mínima de artículos a un precio de p. Además, los ingresos totales deben ser de un mínimo de 1200. En consecuencia, tenemos el siguiente sistema de ecuaciones:

x \cdot p = 1200 (1)

p = 50-0.5\cdot x (2)

Aplicando (2) en (1), tenemos la siguiente ecuación polinómica:

x\cdot (50-0.5\cdot x) = 1200

50\cdot x -0.5\cdot x^{2} = 1200

0.5\cdot x^{2}-50\cdot x +1200 = 0 (3)

Por la Fórmula de la Cuadrática tenemos las raíces del polinomio:

x_{1} = 60, x_{2} = 40

De acuerdo con el resultado anterior, se debe vender un mínimo mensual de 40 artículos para tener un ingreso mínimo de 1.200 dólares.
