The volunteers at a high school football team's concession stand are trying to decide on the price of the hot dogs they are sell

ing. When they charge $2 for a hot dog, they sell an average of 70 hot dogs per game. With every $1 increase in the price, the number of hot dogs sold per game decreases by 8. The volunteers can calculate the revenue earned from selling the hot dogs at each game using the expression -8x2 + 54x + 140, where x is the number of $1 increases in price.

Answer:

The constant term in the polynomial is 140 and it represents the revenue when the price is not increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find: What is the constant term in the polynomial expression, and what does it represent?

The given expression is -8x^2 + 54x + 140.

To find the constant term we can simply put x=0 in the given equation where x represents the number of $1 increase in price.

=-8(0)^2 + 54(0) + 140

=140

The constant term is 140 and it represents the revenue when the cost of a hot dog is $2.

Hence, the constant term in the polynomial is 140 and it represents the revenue when the price is not increased.

The two graphs in the second picture are the graphs of exponential functions. You can detect it from the L shaped graphs. 

The very first graph represents a linear function. A straight line always represents a linear function. In a Linear function, the change in the values of y is constant throughout in relative to change in x values.

The final graph represents a quadratic function rising on both ends. 

Therefore, option b and c are the correct answers

JulsSmile [24]
18 + 14 + 14 = 46 oz

Then there are 16 oz in a pound so we take 46 oz ÷ 16 oz and we get 46/16 in fraction form. Then we simplify this out and get 2 7/8 pounds.
