Indicate the equation of the line, in standard form, that passes through (2, -4) and has a slope of 3/5. Enter your answer into
ANEK [815]

Answer:

-3/5x + y = - 26/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I put everything in slope-intercept form, just because it's more simple for me.

y = 3/5x + b

Since we don't have b, we can use the coordinate they give us to solve for it.

-4 = 3/5 (2) + b

-26/5 = b

y = 3/5x - 26/5

Now, we can move the variables around to fit the form:

Ax + By = C

-3/5x + y = - 26/5

I hope this helped!

Brach and Larue is a home goods store chain, and it is about to introduce a new convection oven that’s expected to sell very wel
zvonat [6]

Answer:

\$12,465

Step-by-step explanation:

The functions for cost and revenue are given below:

Projected \:Revenue,R(x)=  -13.85x^2 + 1660x\\$Projected Cost, C(x)=55400 -279x\\Projected Profit = Revenue-Cost=R(x)-C(x)\\=-13.85x^2 + 1660x-(55400 -279x)\\=-13.85x^2 + 1660x-55400 +279x\\P(x)=-13.85x^2 + 1939x-55400

The profit will be maximized at its <u>line of symmetry,</u>x=-\dfrac{b}{2a}<u />

From P(x), a=-13.85, b=1939

<u>Line of symmetry,</u>

<u />x=-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{1939}{2(-13.85)}=70<u />

<u>The maximum profit that can be made will occur when x=70</u>

<u />P(x)=-13.85x^2 + 1939x-55400\\P(70)=-13.85(70)^2 + 1939(70)-55400\\=\$12,465<u />

The maximum profit that can be made form the sales of the oven is $12,465.
