Answer: 17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -5

f(-5) = -x^2+0.5x-5

= -(-5)^2 + 0.5(-5)-5

= 5^2 + (-2.5) - 5

= 25 - 2.5 - 5

= 17.5

What is the factored form of the polynomial z² − 10z + 25?

Answer:

( z - 5 ) ( z - 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

z² − 10z + 25

= z² − 5z - 5z + 25

= z ( z - 5 ) - 5 ( z - 5 )

= ( z - 5 ) ( z - 5 )

How many computers must the AB Computer Company sell to break even? Let x be the number of computers.

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The Company AB must sell 116 computers to break even

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$R(x)=1.5x$ -----> equation A

$C(x)=145+\frac{1}{4}x$ ----> equation B

where

C is the cost function

R is the revenue function

x is the number of computers sold

we know that

Break even is when the cost is equal to the revenue

equate equation A and equation B

$1.5x=145+\frac{1}{4}x$

Solve for x

subtract 1/4x both sides

$1.5x-\frac{1}{4}x=145$

$1.5x-0.25x=145$

$1.25x=145$

Divide by 1.25 both sides

$x=116$

therefore

The Company AB must sell 116 computers to break even
