The stadium vending company finds that sales of hot dogs average 35,000 hot dogs per game when the hot dogs sell for $2.50 each.

For each 25 cent increase in the price, the sales per game drop by 2000 hot dogs. Determine a function R x that models the total revenue per game, where x is the number of $0.25 increases in the price of a hot dog.

Answer:

A function R x that models the total revenue per game is as follows:

Rx = 87,5000 + 3,750x – 500x^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information in the question, we have:

Rx = Total revenue per game

x = Number of $0.25 increases in the price of a hot dog

Average sales of hot dogs = 35,000

Effect of each 25 cent increase in the price on average sales = 35,000 - 2000x

Effect of each 25 cent increase in the price on selling price = 2.5 + 0.25x

Therefore, we have:

Rx = (35,000 - 2000x)(2.5 + 0.25x)

This can be solved further by opening the brackets as follows:

Rx = 87,5000 + 8,750x - 5,000x - 500x^2

Rx = 87,5000 + 3,750x – 500x^2

Therefore, a function R x that models the total revenue per game is Rx = 87,5000 + 3,750x – 500x^2.

Question A 
take $100.80 divide it by 35 which would equal 2.88 
so round that up for 3.0 for the closest answer

Question B 
take 49.2 and divide it by 6 which would equal 8.2
so round it to the nearest number which would be 8.0

Question C
take 0.78 and divide it by 20L which would equal 0.039
so round that up to the closest number which would be 0.04L

EMERGENCY HELP! A steady stream of water flows into a partially-filled rectangular tank. After 6 minutes, there are 87 gallons o
german

Answer:

y=9x+33

33 gallons of water to begin with.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we essentially are given two coordinates: (6,87) and (21,222). To find an equation, we simply need to find the slope and y-intercept. We know it's a linear equation because it's a steady stream, meaning a constant slope.

The slope is:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{222-87}{21-6}=135/15=9

So, the rate at which the stream flows is 9 gallons per minute.

Now, let's find the initial amount of water. To do this, we can use point-slope form. Pick either of the two points. I'm going to use (6,87).

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-87=9(x-6)\\y-87=19-54\\y=9x+33

So, there were 33 gallons of water in the tank to begin with.

While mining, Keith found a large metal bar that weighed 42 ounces. Keith was also able to determine that the bar had 30 ounces
Usimov [2.4K]
Divide the silver present in the bar by the total weight of the bar to find the percentage of silver in the bar.

30 / 42 = 0.7142

Multiply this decimal by 100 for the percentage.

.7142 * 100 = 71.42

Rounded to the nearest tenth, 71.4% of the weight of the bar is silver.
