Answer:

-2b

Step-by-step explanation:

This just an addition problem so there's not much work to show.

It's the same as -4 + 2 = -2 but they just put variables in front of them so it's

-4b + 2b = -2b

sasho [114]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

based on the triangle inequality theorem, add the two smallest numbers together (8.4,9.2) to get 17.6 which is bigger than 17

The daily cost of producing x high performance wheels for racing is given by the following function, where no more than 100 whe

algol [13]

Answer:

The production would be 25 wheels,

Lowest average cost is $ 123.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given cost function,

$C(x) = 0.09x^3 - 4.5x^2 + 180x$

Where,

x = number of wheel,

So, the average cost per wheel,

$A(x) = \frac{C(x)}{x}=\frac{0.09x^3-4.5x^2 + 180x}{x}=0.09x^2 - 4.5x + 180$

Differentiating with respect to x,

$A'(x) = 0.18x - 4.5$

Again differentiating with respect to x,

$A''(x) = 0.18$

For maxima or minima,

$A'(x) = 0$

$0.18x - 4.5 = 0$

$0.18x = 4.5$

$\implies x = \frac{4.5}{0.18}=25$

For x = 25, A''(x) = positive,

i.e. A(x) is maximum at x = 25.

Hence, the production would be 25 wheels for the lowest average cost per wheel.

And, lowest average cost,

A(x) = 0.09(25)² - 4.5(25) + 180 = $ 123.75

Wilson began watering his garden with a watering can that was completely full. The amount of water in the can as Wilson was wate

givi [52]

Answer:

Option B is correct, i.e. The amount of water originally in Wilson's can was 2.5 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is the graph of Amount of water (in gallons) v/s Time (in seconds).

It is a linear graph whose general equation is given as follows:-

y=mx+b.

Where y = Amount of water, x = Time, m = slope, b = y-intercept (when time is zero).

Finding slope of line, m = (2.3 - 2.5)/(1 - 0) = -0.2 gallons per second.

Finding y-intercept of line, b = 2.5 gallons (at t=0).

Hence, option B is correct, i.e. The amount of water originally in Wilson's can was 2.5 gallons.
