The container hold 1/2 gallon of water. It is 3/4 full. How many gallons of water are in the container?

1 answer:

6 0

Based on the capacity of the container and the capacity currently being used, the amount of water in the container is 3/8 gallons. 

The container is capable of holding 1/2 gallons of water.

If it is holding 3/4 of that 1/2 gallons, the amount of water it would be holding is:

= Capacity of container x Percentage full

= 1/2 x 3/4

= 3/8 gallons of water

In conclusion, the container is currently holding 3/8 gallons of water.

WidgCo is a company that produces and sells widgets. Let p denote the price per widget (measured in dollars), and let x be the m

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The answer to this question can be defined as follows:

i) $\bold{p(x)= -5x^2+ 217x- 1,401} \\$

ii) x=22 units

iii) Maximum profit: 953.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Given value:

p(x) = 211 − 5x \\

C(x) = 1,401 + 16x

The formula for calculating the profit function value:

$\to \bold{P(x)= xp(x) - C(x)}$

$= x(211-5x)- 1,401 + 16x\\\\= 211x -5x^2-1,401+16x\\\\= -5x^2+ 217x- 1,401 \\$

The formula for calculating the value for maximum profit:

$p'(x) = - 10x + 217 =0$

$217= 10x\\\\x= \frac{217}{10}\\\\x= 21.7$

So, the production level is 22 units

Maximum profit:

$\to p(21.7)= - 5 (21.7)^2+217 (21.7) -1,401\\\\$

$=-5 (470.89) +217 (21.7) -1,401\\\\=-2354.45+ 4708.9-1,401\\\\= 953.45$

A plastic box has the dimensions shown.

barxatty [35]

Answer:

960cm³ (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

A plastic box is in form of a cuboid.

The volume of a cuboid = Length × Breadth × Height

Given the dimension 15cm by 8cm by 8cm

Length = 15cm

Breadth = 8cm

Height = 8cm

Volume of the plastic box = 15×8×8

= 960cm³ D
