Answer:

x=175

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of all the degrees in a triangle is 180. First, you have to rind what the third degree of the triangle is. We will call this y.

85+90+y=180

175+y=180

y=5

The floor is flat, so it will be 180 degrees, therefore, x+y=180. We can substitute 5 in for y, so 5+x=180.

So, x would be 175.

Mario has a business selling muffins. Let x be the price of a muffin. Then, the profit P for Mario’s business is given by p(x)=-

Rufina [12.5K]

To make a positive profit p(x)>0 we need to make:
$-100 x^{2} +350x-150 \ \textgreater \ 0$

Now we solve this for x:
$-2 x^{2} +7x-3 \ \textgreater \ 0$

We have:
a = -2
b = 7
c = -3

We will use formula for quadratic equation:
$x_{1} = \frac{-b+ \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} \\ \\ x_{2} = \frac{-b- \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} \\ \\ x_{1} = \frac{-7+ \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4} = \frac{-7+5 }{-4} = \frac{-2 }{-4} = \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ x_{2} = \frac{-7- \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4} = \frac{-7-5 }{-4} = \frac{-12 }{-4} = 3$

We got two solutions. One is fraction other is whole number. We will not consider fraction because the amount of muffins sold must be whole number. So our solution is:
x>3

Scilla [17]

<span>Ariel deposited 100$ into a bank account. Each Friday she will withdraw 10% of the money in the account to spend. Ariel thinks her account will be empty after 10 withdrawals. Do you agree? Explain
OK, my initial answer is YES. I agree.
Why? Let me show you the solutions
=> 100 dollars = the money of Ariel in the bank
=> 10% = he withdraw every Friday
10% of 100 is:
=> 100 / 10 = 10 dollars
Thus, after his 10th withdrawal, his account will be empty.</span>
