Hello skm413002!

$\huge \boxed{\mathfrak{Question} \downarrow}$

Apply the distributive property:

-3(x+2) =

$\large \boxed{\mathbb{ANSWER\: WITH\: EXPLANATION} \downarrow}$

By applying the distributive property, we can solve it as....

$\sf \: - 3(x + 2) \\ = \sf \: (- 3 \times x) -( 3 \times 2) \\ = \large \boxed{\boxed{ \bf - 3x - 6}}$

<h3>Method :-</h3>

Distributive property.

<h3>Steps :-</h3>

Multiply -3 with x & 2.
Add the 2 products.
You'll get the answer as -3x - 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Price = 29.50 + 13.50(p - 2)$

The question has missing details. However, I will solve on a general term.

A possible question could be to find the cost of purchasing (say 10 bottles).

To do this, we simply substitute 10 for p.

So:

$Price = 29.50 + 13.50(p - 2)$

$Price = 29.50 + 13.50(10 - 2)$

$Price = 29.50 + 13.50 * 8$

$Price = 29.50 + 108$

$Price = 137.50$

i.e. $137.50 for 10 pint bottles

Another possible question is to calculate the number of pint bottles that amount to (say $70).

To do this, we simply substitute 70 for Price.

So:

$Price = 29.50 + 13.50(p - 2)$

$70 = 29.50 + 13.50(p - 2)$

Collect like terms

$70 - 29.50 = 13.50(p - 2)$

$40.5= 13.50(p - 2)$

Divide both sides by 13.50

$3= p - 2$

Add 2 to both sides

$3 + 2 = p - 2 + 2$

$5 = p$

$p = 5$

i.e. $70 will buy 5 pint bottles

olga nikolaevna [1]

Cost = 15x + 2000
Earning = 35x

At break even, cost = earning

35x = 15x + 2000
20x = 2000
x = 100

100 rides are needed to break even.

Answer:

$15,339

Step-by-step explanation:

C(x) = 0.5x² − 100x + 20,339

Since this is a parabola, the minimum cost is at the vertex:

x = -b / (2a)

x = -(-100) / (2 × 0.5)

x = 100

So the minimum cost is:

C(100) = 0.5(100)² − 100(100) + 20,339

C(100) = 15,339
