Answer:

The correct answer is: Option D: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that she spent $208 on the sewing machines

And

the equation for profits to break even is:

208 + 10x = 36x

In order to find the number of purses to break even, we have to find the value of x

So,

208+10x=36x

Subtracting 10x from both sides

208+10x-10x = 36x-10x\\208 = 26x

Dividing both sides by 26

\frac{208}{26} = \frac{26x}{26}\\x = 8

The number of purses is 8

Hence,

The correct answer is: Option D: 8

The profits in hundreds of dollars, P(c), that a company can make from a product is modeled by a function of the price, c, they
Jobisdone [24]
The maximum profit is the y-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola represented by the equation.

P(c)=-20c^2+320c+5120 \\ \\
a=-20 \\
b=320 \\ \\
\hbox{the vertex } (h,k): \\
h=\frac{-b}{2a}=\frac{-320}{2 \times (-20)}=\frac{-320}{-40}=8 \\
k=f(h)=f(8)=-20 \times 8^2+320 \times 8+5120= \\
=-1280+2560+5120=6400

The maximum value is 6400, but the profit is given in hundreds of dollars, so multiply the value by 100.

The maximum profit the company can make is $640,000.

What are the solutions to the nonlinear system of equations below?
Sonbull [250]
Substitute y=4x to the second equation:

x^2 + (4x)^2 = 17
x^2 + 16x^2 = 17
17x^2 = 17
x^2 = 17/17
x^2 = 1
x = 1 and -1

When x=1, y=4(1) = 4
When x=-1, y=4(-1) = -4

Thus the solutions would be (1,4) and (-1,-4). That would correspond to D. and A.
