i would subtract 7 and divide by 4;
4x + 7 = 15
4x = 8
x = 2
Answer:
16+2=18
18-3=15
2*3=6
Step-by-step explanation:
A) zeroes
P(n) = -250 n^2 + 2500n - 5250
Extract common factor:
P(n)= -250 (n^2 - 10n + 21)
Factor (find two numbers that sum -10 and its product is 21)
P(n) = -250(n - 3)(n - 7)
Zeroes ==> n - 3 = 0 or n -7 = 0
Then n = 3 and n = 7 are the zeros.
They rerpesent that if the promoter sells tickets at 3 or 7 dollars the profit is zero.
B) Maximum profit
Completion of squares
n^2 - 10n + 21 = n^2 - 10n + 25 - 4 = (n^2 - 10n+ 25) - 4 = (n - 5)^2 - 4
P(n) = - 250[(n-5)^2 -4] = -250(n-5)^2 + 1000
Maximum ==> - 250 (n - 5)^2 = 0 ==> n = 5 and P(5) = 1000
Maximum profit =1000 at n = 5
C) Axis of symmetry
Vertex = (h,k) when the equation is in the form A(n-h)^2 + k
Comparing A(n-h)^2 + k with - 250(n - 5)^2 + 1000
Vertex = (5, 1000) and the symmetry axis is n = 5.
<h2>
Answer:</h2>
The answer is 16.
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
Since the 8x is positive, the equation must have y as a positive number.
Let's see this!
An easy way to complete the square if you have the constants for x2 and
But not the non-variable number is to divide the x constant, and then square it.
Example:

The last number must be 16. Let's check it.
