zimovet [89]

Answer:

Inequality :

-7x\le \:-70

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be x

at most -70 = ≤ -70

x\times(-7) \leq -70\\\\-7x\leq -70

Solving further  :

-7x\le \:-70\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:-1\:\left(reverse\:the\:inequality\right)}\\\\\left(-7x\right)\left(-1\right)\ge \left(-70\right)\left(-1\right)\\\\Simplify\\\\7x\geq 70\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}7\\\\\frac{7x}{7}\ge \frac{70}{7}\\\\Simplify\\\\x \geq 10

The revenue for a company producing widgets is given by y = -20x2 - 50x + 200, where x is the price in dollars for each widget.
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

The  price is   x =  $2.779

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  revenue is  y = - 20x^2  - 50 x + 200

   The cost of production is  y = 30 x - 10

Generally at break even point the cost of production is equal to the  revenue

So

      -20x^2 -50x + 200 =  30x-10

=>   20x^2 +20 -210 = 0

Using the quadratic formula to solve this equation we have that

       x =  $2.779

Division of two quantities is expressed as the ____ of those two quantities.
andreev551 [17]


Division of two quantities is expressed as the  quotient of those two quantities.

The word quotient is derived from the Latin language. It is from the Latin word "quotiens" which means "how many times." A quotient  is the answer to a divisional problem. A divisional problem describes how many times a number will go into another. The first time that this word was known to have been used in mathematics was around 1400 - 1500 AD in England.

There are two different ways to find the quotient of two numbers.  One of them is through Fractions. The quotient of a fraction is the number obtained when the fraction is simplified. The other way to find a quotient is  by employing the long division method where the quotient  value is positioned above the divisor and dividend.
