Answer:

66 coolers

Step-by-step explanation:

C = 0.005x² - 0.3x + 17

When C = $19

19 = 0.005x² - 0.3x + 17

19 - 17 = 0.005x² - 0.3x

2 = 0.005x² - 0.3x

0.005x² - 0.3x - 2 = 0

x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a

= -(-0.3) ± √-0.3² - 4*0.005*-2 / 2*0.005

= 0.3 ± √ 0.09 - (-0.04) / 0.01

= 0.3 ± √ 0.09 + 0.04 / 0.01

= 0.3 ± √ 0.13 / 0.01

= 0.3/0.01 ± √0.13/0.01

= 30 ± 0.36/0.01

x = 30 ± 36

x = 30 + 36 or 30 - 36

x = 66 or -6

Number of coolers can not be negative

Therefore, number of coolers produced when the cost is $19

is 66 coolers

4 tomatoes and 8 avocados cost $10. Six tomatoes and 14 avocados cost $17. How much does a single avocado and a single tomato co
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

One avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations where t is the number of tomatoes and a is the number of avocados:

4t + 8a = 10

6t + 14a = 17

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom equation by -2:

12t + 24a = 30

-12t - 28a = -34

Add them together and solve for a:

-4a = -4

a = 1

Plug in 1 as a into one of the equations and solve for t:

4t + 8a = 10

4t + 8(1) = 10

4t + 8 = 10

4t = 2

t = 0.5

So, one avocado costs $1 and one tomato costs $0.50

Select all expressions that are equivalent to 4x+2(2x-5)-(3-5x)
Arada [10]

For this case we have the following expression:

4x + 2 (2x-5) - (3-5x)

Applying distributive property to the terms within parentheses taking into account that:

- * + = -\\- * - = +

We have:

4x + 4x-10-3 + 5x =

We add similar terms taking into account that:

Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.

4x + 4x + 5x-10-3 =\\13x-13

Thus, an equivalent expression is:

13x-13

Answer:

13x-13

Solve 3x - 9x + 7 - 3 = -8.<br><br> 6<br> -6<br> 2<br> -2
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 9x + 7 - 3 = -8

Combine like terms

-6x +4 = -8

Subtract 4 from each side

-6x +4-4 = -8-4

-6x = -12

Divide each side by -6

-6x/-6 = -12/-6

x = 2
