Answer:
Profit = $(700 - 42x - 56y)
Step-by-step explanation:
For large candles, the selling price is $10 and its making cost is $x.
So, by selling a large candle the profit is $(10 - x)
Again for small candles, the selling price is $5 and its making cost is $y.
So, by selling a small candle the profit is $(5 - y)
Therefore, in a sell of 42 large candles and 56 small candles the total profit will be, P = 42 (10 - x) + 56 (5 - y)
⇒ P = 420 - 42x + 280 - 56y {Applying distributive property}
⇒ P = $(700 - 42x - 56y) (Answer)
Answer:
(x1, y1) = (3, 1)
(x2, y2) = (2,4)
the slope is
m= y2−y1/x2−x1 = 4-1/2-3 = 3/-1 = <u>-3</u>
308 + 397 + 389 + 286 = 1380

Answer:
k can either be
12
or
−
12
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the equation
0=x2+4x+4
. We can solve this by factoring as a perfect square trinomial, so
0=(x+2)2→x=−2 and−2
. Hence, there will be two identical solutions.
The discriminant of the quadratic equation (b2−4ac) can be used to determine the number and the type of solutions. Since a quadratic equations roots are in fact its x intercepts, and a perfect square trinomial will have
2 equal, or 1
distinct solution, the vertex lies on the x axis. We can set the discriminant to 0 and solve:
k2−(4×1×36)=0
k2−144=0
(k+12)(k−12)=0
k=±12
