Answer:

x = - 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2 - 3(2x - 2) = 17 ← distribute parenthesis

2 - 6x + 6 = 17 , simplify

8 - 6x = 17 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

- 6x = 9 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

x = $\frac{9}{-6}$ = - $\frac{3}{2}$ = - 1.5

A retailer who sells backpacks estimates that by selling them for x dollars each, she will be able to sell 100−x backpacks each

zvonat [6]

Answer:

x = 50

R = $2500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question a quadratic equation,

−x² + 100x

To find the selling price, x, which will give highest revenue, y, we will find maximum value of parabola curve −x² + 100x

The value of -b/2a tells you the value x of the vertex of the function

−x² + 100x

here a = -1

b = 100

Selling price = -(100)/2(-1)

= 50

R = −(50)² + 100(50)

= 2500

How do you simplify (2xy2)3

pantera1 [17]

$(2xy^{2})^{3} = (2xy^{2})(2xy^{2})(2xy^{2})$
Now, we can just multiply it and obtain the result
$(2xy^{2})(2xy^{2})(2xy^{2})=(4x^{2}y^{4})(2xy^{2})=8x^{3}y^{6}$

I used law presented on this example
$2^{3}*2=2^{3}*2^{1}=2^{3+1}=2^{4}$
