Sandra sells necklaces at a school craft fair. She uses the equation P= 7.5n - (2.25n + 15) to determine her total profit at th

gregori [183]

The way you find profit is to subtract the revenue and the cost
Profit = Revenue - Cost
The revenue is the amount of money coming in, the cost is the amount of money going out. The goal of course is to have the revenue larger than the cost so that the profit is positive.

So the equation given is
P = 7.5n - (2.25n+15)
and its in the form
P = R - C
where...
R = 7.5n is the revenue equation
C = 2.25n+15 is the cost equation

Focus on the revenue equation
R = 7.5n
which is the same as
R = 7.50*n

This tells us that Sandra pulls in a total of 7.50*n dollars where n is some positive whole number. It represents the number of necklaces sold. For example, if she sold n = 10 necklaces, then
R = 7.50*n
R = 7.50*10
R = 750
meaning that Sandra has made $750 in revenue

As you can see above, the revenue is computed by multiplying the price per necklace ($7.50) by the number of necklaces sold (n) to get R = 7.50*n

So that's why the answer is $7.50

Note: The 2.25 is part of the cost equation. This is known as the variable cost. It is the cost to make one necklace ignoring the fixed cost (eg: rent). The variable cost often doesn't stay the same, but algebra textbooks often simplify this aspect.

Suppose the graph of a cubic polynomial function has the same zeroes and passes through the coordinate (0, -5). Write the equati

amid [387]

In this we know all three zeros and one point from which the graph pass.
So we will let specific cubic polynomial function of the form
$f(x) = a(x - x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3)$

As we know zeros are that point where we will get value of function equal to zero. So it is basically in form $(x_n , 0)$

SO in given question zeros are (2 , 0) , (3, 0) and (5,0)
So we can say $x_1 = 2 , x_2 = 3 , x_3 = 5$

So required equation is
$f(x) = a (x-2)(x-3)(x-5)$
              $= a[(x^2 - 2x - 3x + 6)(x-5)]$
              $= a[(x^2 - 5x+6)(x-5)]$
              $= a(x^3 - 5x^2 + 6x- 5x^2 + 25x - 30)$
              $= a(x^3 - 10x^2+31x-30)$
Now we have one point (0 , -5) from which graph passes.
So we say at x = 0 , f(x) = -5
$-5= a (0-0+0 - 30)$
$-5 = -30a$
$a = \frac{-5}{-30} = \frac{1}{6}$
So required equation of cubic polynomial is
$f(x) = \frac{1}{6}(x^3 -10x^2+31x-30)$

For finding y - intercept we simply plugin x = 0 in given equation.
As we know at x = 0 , value of function is -5.
So y - intercept is -5.
