Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 - 8x+16
Set equal to zero
0 = x^2 -8x +16
Factor
what 2 numbers multiply to 16 and add to -8
-4*-4 = 16
-4+-4 = -8
0= (x-4)(x-4)
Using the zero product property
x-4 = 0 x-4 =0
x=4 x=4
1.87 is 8.5% of 22 so 8.5% of 80 is 0.085 x 80 so $6.80
To minimize the cost, we take the straight distance from the refinery to the other side of the river as 2 km. Also, the 7 km will be the distance that has to be traveled by the pipeline in land. The total cost, C, is therefore,
total cost = (2 km)($800,000/km) + (7 km)($400,000 /km)
total cost = $4,400,000
Thus, the total cost of the pipeline is approximately $4,400,000.00.
