Rudy has 10 white she sells 23 pink seashells and 21 Brown see cells if he divides the cells into equally between three friends
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Each friend will get 18 sea shells.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rudy has white sea shells = 10

Rudy has pink sea shells = 23

Rudy has brown sea shells = 21

Number of friends = 3

Rudy divides the sea shells into equally between three friends.

We need to find how many sea shells each friend can get.

Now first we find the total number sea shells.

Total number of sea shells = white sea shells + pink sea shells + brown sea shells = 10 + 23 + 21 = 54

Now to find number of sea shell each friend can get we will divide total number of sea shell with number of friends.

number of sea shell each friend can get = \frac{\textrm{Total number of sea shells}}{\textrm{ Number of friends}} = \frac{54}{3}=18

Hence each friend will get 18 sea shells.

A company’s profit in dollars is modeled by the equation p(x) = –0.5x2 + 100x, where x represents the number of units sold.
serg [7]

Answers:

a. The company needs to sell 100 units to reach the maxmum profit.

b. The company's maximum profit is $5,000.

Solution:

a. How many unit does the company need to sell to reach the maximum profit?

p(x)=-0.5x^2+100x

This is a quadratic equation, and its graph is a parabola vertical (because the veriable "x" is square). Comparing with the general form:

p(x)=ax^2+bx+c; a=-0.5, b=100, c=0

a=-0.5<0 (negative), then the parabola opens downward, and it has a maximimun value (maximum profit) at its vertex.

We can find the abscissa of the vertex (units that the company needs to sell to reach the maximum profit using the following formula:

x=-b/(2a)

Replacing b by 100 and a by -0.5 in the formula above:

x=-100/[2(-0.5)]

x=-100/(-1)

x=100

The company needs to sell 100 units to reach the maximum profit.


b. What's the company's maximum profit?  

To determine the maximum profit we substitute the value of "x" obrained in part "a" in the quadratic equation:

x=100→p(100)=-0.5(100)^2+100(100)

p(100)=-0.5(10,000)+10,000

p(100)=-5,000+10,000

p(100)=5,000

The company's maximum profit is $5,000.
