The book store earned x dollars in profit. Last week, the total profit

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aleksandr-060686 [28]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

I believe is x + 0.05x

x (is the profit) + 5% of x = the total profit he got for last week.

or only 0.05x if it just asks for the increased l’art of it.

The vertex is the high point of the curve, (2, 1). The vertex form of the equation for a parabola is
.. y = a*(x -h)^2 +k . . . . . . . for vertex = (h, k)

Using the vertex coordinates we read from the graph, the equation is
.. y = a*(x -2)^2 +1

We need to find the value of "a". We can do that by using any (x, y) value that we know (other than the vertex), for example (1, 0).
.. 0 = a*(1 -2)^2 +1
.. 0 = a*1 +1
.. -1 = a

Now we know the equation is
.. y = -(x -2)^2 +1

_____
If we like, we can expand it to
.. y = -(x^2 -4x +4) +1
.. y = -x^2 +4x -3

=========
An alternative approach would be to make use of the zeros. You can read the x-intercepts from the graph as x=1 and x=3. Then you can write the equation as
.. y = a*(x -1)*(x -3)
Once again, you need to find the value of "a" using some other point on the graph. The vertex (x, y) = (2, 1) is one such point. Subsituting those values, we get
.. 1 = a*(2 -1)*(2 -3) = a*1*-1 = -a
.. -1 = a
Then the equation of the graph can be written as
.. y = -(x -1)(x -3)
In expanded form, this is
.. y = -(x^2 -4x +3)
.. y = -x^2 +4x -3 . . . . . . same as above

The equation of the ellipse in <em>standard</em> form is (x + 3)² / 100 + (y - 2)² / 64 = 1. (Correct choice: B)

<h3>What is the equation of the ellipse associated with the coordinates of the foci?</h3>

By <em>analytical</em> geometry we know that foci are along the <em>major</em> axis of ellipses and beside the statement we find that such axis is parallel to the x-axis of Cartesian plane. Then, the <em>standard</em> form of the equation of the ellipse is of the following form:

(x - h)² / a² + (y - k)² / b² = 1, where a > b     (1)

Where:

  • a - Length of the major semiaxis.
  • b - Length of the minor semiaxis.

Now, we proceed to find the vertex and the lengths of the semiaxes:

a = 10 units.

b = 8 units.

Vertex

V(x, y) = 0.5 · F₁(x, y) + 0.5 · F₂(x, y)

V(x, y) = 0.5 · (3, 2) + 0.5 · (- 9, 2)

V(x, y) = (1.5, 1) + (- 4.5, 1)

V(x, y) = (- 3, 2)

The equation of the ellipse in <em>standard</em> form is (x + 3)² / 100 + (y - 2)² / 64 = 1. (Correct choice: B)

Emma buys and sells truck parts she bought two tires for $35 eachand later sold them for $65 each she bought three rims for $75
alexdok [17]

Answer:2X35=70 2X65=130 130-70=60   So 60 dollars profit for the two tires.

3X75=225 3X136=408 408-225=183  So 183 dollars profit for the three rims

5X4=20 5X15=75 75-20=55  So 55 dollars profit for the headlights.  

Total profit  60+183+55=298

The letter b represents a nonzero constant. Solve 2bx-bx= -8 for x?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

x = -8/b

Step-by-step explanation:

2bx-bx= -8

bx = -8

Divide by b since b is nonzero

x = -8/b
