Answer:

= 4

Step-by-step explanation:

first lets find the value of x in 3x+2=5/9

3x+2=5/9

3x = $\frac{5}{9}$ -2

3x = $\frac{3}{9}$

3x = $\frac{1}{2}$

x = $\frac{1}{2 * 3\\ }$

x = $\frac{1}{6}$

$\frac{1}{6}$ can also be written as $6^{-1}$

−3x+8

-3 ( $\frac{1}{6}$ ) +8

$\frac{-3}{6}$ +8

= 4

Which of the following is the best estimate for 31% of 9? *GIVING 99 Points!*

Marina CMI [18]

Hello! So, when you know your fractions and percents, you know that about 33% equals 1/3. 31 is close to 33, so the best estimate for 31% of 9 is 3. When you solve it on a calculator, 9 * 31% (0.31) is 2.79, which rounds off to 3 when rounded to the nearest whole number. The answer is B: 3.

The total cost (in dollars) for a company to manufacture and sell x items per week is C = 40 x + 640 , whereas the revenue broug

Answer:

The company must sell 60 or 70 items to obtain a weekly profit of 200.

Step-by-step explanation:

The profit is the difference between the revenue and the cost of a given task, therefore:

$\text{profit} = R - C\\\text{profit} = 66*x - 0.2*x^2 - (40*x + 640)\\\text{profit} = 66*x - 0.2*x^2 - 40*x - 640\\\text{profit} = - 0.2*x^2 + 26*x - 640$

To have a profit of 200, we need to sell:

$-0.2*x^2 + 26*x - 640 = 200\\-0.2*x^2 + 26*x -840 = 0\text{ } *\frac{-1}{0.2}\\x^2 -130 + -4200 = 0\\x_{1,2} = \frac{-(-130) \pm \sqrt{(-130)^2 - 4*1*(-4200)}}{2*1}\\x_{1,2} = \frac{130 \pm \sqrt{16900 + 16800}}{2}\\x_{1,2} = \frac{130 \pm \sqrt{100}}{2}\\x_{1,2} = \frac{130 \pm 10}{2}\\x_{1} = \frac{130 + 10}{2} = \frac{140}{2} = 70\\ x_{2} = \frac{130 - 10}{2} = \frac{120}{2} = 60$

The company must sell 60 or 70 items to obtain a weekly profit of 200.
