Answer:

80 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the profit, y, modeled by the equation, y = x^2 – 40x – 3,200, where x is the number of tickets sold, we are to find the total number of  tickets, x, that need to be sold for the drama club to break  even. To do that we will simply substitute y = 0 into the given the equation and calculate the value of x;

y = x^2 – 40x – 3,200,

0 = x^2 – 40x – 3,200,

x^2 – 40x – 3,200 = 0

x^2 – 80x  + 40x – 3,200 = 0

x(x-80)+40(x-80) = 0

(x+40)(x-80) = 0

x = -40 and x = 80

x cannot be negative

Hence the total number of  tickets, x, that need to be sold for the drama club to break  even is 80 tickets

Answer:

The volume of the irregular figure would be 144 cm^3.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you wish to make the process of calculating the volume easier, you can picture the irregular figure as two rectangular prisms: the large one on the bottom, and the smaller one appearing to protrude from the prism below it. Using this method, you only need to find the volumes of the two rectangular prisms and add the values together to get the volume for the irregular figure. The formula used to find the volume of a rectangular prism is l*w*h, where l, w, and h, represents the length, width, and height of the rectangular prism respectively. Using the formula above, the volume of the larger rectangular prism would be 12 * 3 * 3 = 12 * 9 = 108 cm^3, and the volume of the smaller rectangular prism would be 4 * 3 * 3 = 12 * 3 = 36 cm^3. So the volume of the entire irregular figure would be 108 + 36 = 144 cm^3.

3/2x-2=19 What does x equal?
dimaraw [331]
First, add 2 to both sides. You should have 3/2x=21. Multiply both sides by 2 which gives you 3x= 42. Divide by 3 and you have x=14

F = 1.8C + 32 what is c
zepelin [54]

Step-by-step explanation:

right.

and therefore c is in this case the name of the variable in the equation (or function).

add on.

ah, do you mean (and does this strange problem description mean) that you want the reverse formula : to get C out of F ?

in that case

F = 1.8c + 32 = 9/5 × c + 32

F - 32 = 9/5 × c

5/9 × (F - 32) = c

or

c = 5/9 × (F - 32)

that's it.
