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.

Given the slope of the line containing the points (7 , b) and (-2 , 5) is 4/9, find the value of b​
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: b=9

Step-by-step explanation: To find the slope we use: y2-y1/x2-x1

Which would then be: 5-b/-2-7= 5-b/-9

Then we have to find a number for b that would give us -4 as the numerator. That number would be 9

This would give us 4/9 which is the slope we already had.

The perimeter of a rectangular field is 26 yards. The length is 4 more yards than twice the width. Find the length and width of
solong [7]

The formula for perimeter is P = 2length + 2width (P = 2L + 2W)

You know that the length is 4 more yards then twice the width. In equation form this would be:

length = 4 + 2w

Plug what you know into the perimeter formula:

26 = 2(4 + 2w) + 2w

First you must distribute the 2 to the numbers inside the parentheses, which would be 4 and 2w...

26 = (2 * 4) + (2 * 2w) + 2w

26 = 8 + 4w + 2w

Now you must combine like terms. This means that first numbers with  the same variables (w) must be combined...

26 = 8 + 4w + 2w

4w + 2w = 6w

26 = 8 + 6w

Now bring 8 to the left side by subtracting 8 to both sides (what you do on one side you must do to the other). Since 8 is being added on the right side, subtraction (the opposite of addition) will cancel it out (make it zero) from the right side and bring it over to the left side.

26 - 8 = 8 - 8 + 6w

18 = 0 + 6w

18 = 6w

To isolate w divide 6 to both sides

18 / 6 = 6w / 6

w = 3

We know that the width is 3 ft

Now you must find the length. To do this plug 3 where you see w in the equation:

length = 4 + 2w

l = 4 + 2(3)

l = 4 + 6

l = 10

We know that length is 10 ft

Letter B. is the correct answer

Hope this helped!

Which interval is the solution set to 0.35x - 4.8<5.2- 0.9x
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Solution set {x|x<8}

Step-by-step explanation:

0.35x - 4.8<5.2- 0.9x

0.35x+0.9x<5.2+4.8

1.25x<10

x<10/1.25

x<8
