Answer:

The call lasted for 47 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

Value of prepaid card = $25

Cost per minute of long distance call = 24 cents = $0.24

Remaining credit = $13.72

Let,

x be the number of minutes

y be the remaining amount

y = 25 - 0.24x

13.72 = 25 - 0.24x

0.24x = 25 - 13.72

0.24x = 11.28

Dividing both sides by 0.24

\frac{0.24x}{0.24}=\frac{11.28}{0.24}\\x=47

Therefore,

The call lasted for 47 minutes.

Determine the volume of the space in the tank that still needs to be filled with water if the water is ⅓ ft. Deep
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

11 1/9 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

find the complete question in the attached image

volume of the tank = length x width x height

2 x 5 x 1 2/3

2 x 5 x 5/3 = 50/3 = 16 2/3 ft^3

If the tank is 1/3 filled with water, the volume that needs to be filled with water is 1 - 1/3 = 2/3

volume that needs to be filled with water = 2/3 x volume of the tank

2/3 x 50/3 = 11 1/9 ft^3

An airline finds that if it prices a cross-country ticket at $200, it will sell 300 tickets per day. It estimates that each $20
olya-2409 [2.1K]

We can write that as a function:

f(n)=(200 -20n) * (300 + 50n)\\f(n)=60000+10000n-6000n-1000n^2\\f(n)=-1000n^2+4000n+60000\\

where n is the number of price reductions. We can see that it is a quadratic function which has the biggest value at P = (p, q). It means that p is the number of reductions which results in the biggest profit.

p=\frac{-b}{2a}=\frac{-4000}{-2000}=2

It means that it's the best to make 2 price reductions for the company. The tickets should be sold for $200 - 2 * $20 = $160. It results in 2 * 50 more tickets sold which is 300 + 100 = 400.

Answer:

Ticket price: $160

Number of tickets: 400
