The volunteers at a high school football team’s concession stand are trying to decide on the price of the hot dogs they are sell

ing. When they charge $2 for a hot dog, they sell an average of 70 hot dogs per game. With every $1 increase in the price, the number of hot dogs sold per game decreases by 8.
The volunteers can calculate the revenue earned from selling the hot dogs at each game using the expression -8x2 + 54x + 140, where x is the number of $1 increases in price

Answer:

x is the number of $1 increase in the price.

If there is no increase, then the total money earned is

2 × 70 = 140

If there is $1 increase, then the total money earned is

(2 + 1) × [70 - 8(1)]

If there is $2 increase, then the total money earned is

(2 + 2) × [70 - 8(2)]

If we continue the pattern, for x times $1 increase, total money earned is

(2 + x)(70 - 8x) =

If we substitute x = 0 in the above equation, we will get

the total money earned = $140.

It means if there is no increase, then the total money earned = 140.

Hence, 140 is the constant term and it represents that there is no increase in price.

A right square pyramid has a slant height of 25 feet, and the length of a side
Amanda [17]

Answer:

C. 24 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a right triangle which can be drawn in side the pyramid with height h, hypotenuse  25 ft and bas = 1/2 * 14 = 7.

So using Pythagoras:

25^2 = h^2 + 7^2

h^2 = 25^2 - 7^2

h^2 = 576

h = √576 = 24 ft.

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The value of ABC is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the expression

\frac{1+\sqrt{3}}{1-\sqrt{3}}

Rationalize the denominator.

\frac{1+\sqrt{3}}{1-\sqrt{3}}\times \frac{1+\sqrt{3}}{1+\sqrt{3}}

\frac{(1+\sqrt{3})^2}{1^2-(\sqrt{3})^2}

\frac{1^2+(\sqrt{3})^2+2\sqrt{3}}{1-3}

\frac{1+3+2\sqrt{3}}{-2}

\frac{4+2\sqrt{3}}{-2}

\frac{4}{-2}+\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{-2}

-2-\sqrt{3}              ..... (1)

The answer in the form

A+B\sqrt{C}           .... (2)

On comparing (1) and (2), we get

A=-2,B=-1,C=3

We need to find the value of ABC.

ABC=(-2)(-1)(3)=6

Therefore the value of ABC is 6.
