A community theater uses the function p(d)=−4d2+200d−100 to model the profit (in dollars) expected in a weekend when the tickets

to a comedy show are priced at d dollars each. Write and solve an equation to find out the prices at which the theater would earn $1,500 in profit from the comedy show each weekend. Show your reasoning. At what price would the theater make the maximum profit, and what is that maximum profit. Show your reasoning.

Answer:

price = $25

maximum profit is $2400

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function modeled by the community theatre as

p(d)=−4d^2+200d−100

The maximum profit will be ,ade at dP/dd = 0

dP/dd = -8d + 200

0 = -8d + 200

8d = 200

d = 200/8

d = 25

hence he theatre will make maximum profit at a price of $25

Substitute d = 25 to get the maximum profit

p(25)=−4(25)^2+200(25)−100

p(25) = -2500+5000-100

p(25) = 2400

Hence the maximum profit is $2400

Your plan was to be on the road by 9 A.M. but you did not leave the garage until 10 A.M. You then drove with the cruise control
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The average speed over the time interval from 9 A.M. to noon was of 33.33 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average speed is given by the following equation:

v = \frac{d}{t}

From 10A.M. to noon.

You traveled at 50mph during 2 hours. So how long you traveled?

50 = \frac{d}{2}

d = 50*2

d = 100

You traveled 100 miles.

What was your average speed over the time interval from 9 A.M. to noon

From 9 A.M. to 10 A.M, you did not travel.

From 10 P.M. to noon, 100 miles.

So 100 miles during 3 hours.

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{100}{3} = 33.33

The average speed over the time interval from 9 A.M. to noon was of 33.33 mph.

An explosion causes debris to rise vertically with an initial velocity of 160 feet per second. What is the speed of debris when
lisov135 [29]
The question is asking what v_final is, given that v_initial is at 300 feet. and v_initial is at 0 feet.  
We know there will be a constant downward acceleration of 32.15 ft/s^2.
 Use the following equation: 
 v_final^2 = v_initial^2 + 2ah
 v_final^2 = (160 ft/s)^2 + 2(-32.15 ft/s^2)(300 ft) = 6310 ft^2/s^2
 v_final = (6310 ft^2/s^2)^1/2 = 79.4 ft/s.
