Step-by-step explanation:

A motorist drives 146km at a certain average speed she then increases the speed by 9km/h and takes the same time to travel the next 164km.

find her speeds for both parts of the journey.

:

let s = his original speed

then

(s+9) = the increased speed

:

Write a time equation; time = dist/speed

 

146%2Fs = 164%2F%28%28s%2B9%29%29

cross multiply

164s = 146(s+9)

164s = 146s + 1314

164s - 146s = 1314

18s = 1314

s = 1314/18

s = 73 km/h is his original speed

A firm has a revenue function that can be represented by r (x)=700x-0.35x^2, where r (x) is the total revenue (in dollars) and x
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

How many units need to be sold to produce the maximum revenue? 1000 units

How many in dollars is the maximum revenue when the maximum of units are sold? $350,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We get max value of a function if we differentiate it and set it equal to 0.

We need to differentiate r(x) and set it equal to 0 and solve for x.

<u><em>That would be number of units sold to get max revenue.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

<u>Then we take that "x" value and substitute into r(x) to get the max revenue amount.</u>

<u />

Before differentiating, we see the rules shown below:

f(x)=ax^n\\f'(x)=n*ax^{n-1}

Where

f'(x) is the differentiated function

Now, let's do the process:

r (x)=700x-0.35x^2\\r(x)=700-2*0.35x\\r(x)=700-0.7x\\0=700-0.7x\\0.7x=700\\x=1000

So, 1000 units need to be sold for max revenue

Now, substituting, we get:

r (x)=700x-0.35x^2\\r(1000)=700(1000)-0.35(1000)^2\\r(1000)=350,000

The max revenue amount is $350,000

3. The ratio of milk water in 55 liters of Adultered milk is 7:4. How much water must be added to make the mixture Ratio of 7:6?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

The answer is B 10 L

Step-by-step explanation:

let milk and water in the mixture be 7x and 4x equal 55L

7x + 4x = 55 \\ 11x = 55 \\ x = 5

7(5) = 35l \: milk \\ 4(5) = 20l \: water

let x Liters of water he added so that the ratio is 7:6

\frac{35l \: milk}{20l \: water + x}  =  \frac{7}{6}

cross multiply

35l \: milk \times 6 = (20l \: water + x)7 \\ 210l  \: m= 140l \: w + 7x \\ 210l \: m - 140l \: w = 7x \\ 70l = 7x \\  \frac{70}{7}  =  \frac{7x}{7 }  \\ x = 10 l \: water
