Answer: 19.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Profit is given in terms of the selling price

y=-5x^2+194x-900

to get the maximum price, differentiate y w.r.t x

\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} x}=-5\times 2x+194

Put  \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} x}=0 to get maximum value

10x=194\\x=19.4

Thus, the company must sell it at 19.4

Find the volume of a box 24 in. x 20 in x 23 in.
kaheart [24]
<span>The definition for discovering the volume of a box is when the person takes the length, the width, and the height of the box. And because we have those values here, there is no math that is necessary to do other than multiplying the numbers together and creating a new unit of inches cubed. The answer is 11040 inches cubed.</span>

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To find the length of diagonal XT, we can use the distance formula to get \sqrt{(-3-5)^{2}+(4-(-2))^{2}}=10

Since this is a rectangle, XT=YW, meaning YW=10 as well.

b) The area of a rectangle is given by length times width. The length is |-3-5|=8, and the width is |-2-4|=6. So the area is (8)(6)=48.

c) The perimeter is just 2(8+6)=28.
