Here is our profit as a function of # of posters
p(x) =-10x² + 200x - 250
Here is our price per poster, as a function of the # of posters:
pr(x) = 20 - x
Since we want to find the optimum price and # of posters, let's plug our price function into our profit function, to find the optimum x, and then use that to find the optimum price:
p(x) = -10 (20-x)² + 200 (20 - x) - 250
p(x) = -10 (400 -40x + x²) + 4000 - 200x - 250
Take a look at our profit function. It is a normal trinomial square, with a negative sign on the squared term. This means the curve is a downward facing parabola, so our profit maximum will be the top of the curve.
By taking the derivative, we can find where p'(x) = 0 (where the slope of p(x) equals 0), to see where the top of profit function is.
p(x) = -4000 +400x -10x² + 4000 -200x -250
p'(x) = 400 - 20x -200
0 = 200 - 20x
20x = 200
x = 10
p'(x) = 0 at x=10. This is the peak of our profit function. To find the price per poster, plug x=10 into our price function:
price = 20 - x
price = 10
Now plug x=10 into our original profit function in order to find our maximum profit:
<span>p(x)= -10x^2 +200x -250
p(x) = -10 (10)</span>² +200 (10) - 250

Answer:
388.5yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
We have Triangle TUV
In the question, we are given already
Angle U = 32°
Angle T = 38°
Angle V = ???
Side t = 31yd
Side u = ?
Side v = ?
Area of the triangle= ?
Step 1
We find the third angle = Angle V
Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°
Third angle = Angle V = 180° - (32 + 38)°
= 180° - 70°
Angle V = 110°
Step 2
Find the sides u and v
We find these sides using the sine rule
Sine rule or Rule of Sines =
a/ sin A = b/ Sin B
Hence for triangle TUV
t/ sin T = u/ sin U = v/ sin V
We have the following values
Angle T = 38°
Angle U = 32°
Angle V = 110°
We are given side t = 31y
Finding side u
u/ sin U= t/ sin T
u/sin 32 = 31/sin 38
Cross Multiply
sin 32 × 31 = u × sin 38
u = sin 32 × 31/sin 38
u = 26.68268yd
u = 26.68yd
Finding side x
v / sin V= t/ sin T
v/ sin 110 = 31/sin 38
Cross Multiply
sin 110 × 31 = v × sin 38
v = sin 110 × 31/sin 38
v = 47.31573yd
v = 47.32yd
To find the area of triangle TUV
We use heron formula
= √s(s - t) (s - u) (s - v)
Where S = t + u + v/ 2
s = (31 + 26.68 + 47.32)/2
s = 52.5
Area of the triangle = √52.5× (52.5 - 31) × (52.5 - 26.68 ) × (52.5 - 47.32)
Area of the triangle = √150967.6032
Area of the triangle = 388.5454973359yd²
Approximately to the nearest tenth =388.5yd²
Answer:
42°
Step-by-step explanation:
Since all the angles in the figure add up to 180°...
180 - 54 = 126
3x = 126°
x = 126 ÷ 3 = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
the y intercept is where 0= x
