Answer:

B. y² – 5y = 750

C. 750 – y(y – 5) = 0

E. (y + 25)(y – 30) = 0

I'm assuming the 2 in the second option is supposed to be an exponent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = y

Width = y-5

Length × Width = Area

Area = <u>y(y-5)</u> = 750

<u>Distribute.</u>

y²-5y=750 (B is correct)

<u>If you factor the equation above</u>

(y + 25)(y – 30) = 0 (E is correct)

Area = y(y-5) = 750

<u>Subtract y(y-5) from both sides.</u>

750-y(y-5) = 0 (C is correct)

You have 400 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular plot. Find the length and width of the plot that will maximize the area. W
3241004551 [841]
Well, we can denote L and W for the length and width respectively. Lets say the A is the area, we have: 1. A=(L × W) as well as 2. 2(L+W)=400. We rearrange the second equation to get 3. W=200-L. From this, we can see that 0<L<200. Substitute the third equation into the first to get A=(200L-L²). put this formula into the scientific calculator and you will find a parabola with a maximum. That would be the maximum area of the enclosed area. Alternatively, we can say that L is between 0 and 200 when the area equals 0. (The graph you find will be  area against length). As the maximum is generally found halfway, we substitute 100 into the equation and we end up with 10000.

Hope this helps.

A phone company offers two monthly plans. Plan A costs $24 plus an additional $0.09 for each minute of calls. Plan B costs $20 p
Gnesinka [82]

x = number of minutes used, y = total cost in dollars

Plan A: y = 0.09x + 24

Plan B: y = 0.14x + 20

Equate the two right hand side (RHS) expressions and solve for x

0.14x + 20 = 0.09x + 24

0.14x - 0.09x = 24 - 20

0.05x = 4

x = 4/0.05

x = 80

The two plans will cost the same amount of money if you use up 80 minutes

Plug in x = 80 into either equation to find y

y = 0.09*x + 24

y = 0.09*80 + 24

y = 31.20

or

y = 0.14*x + 20

y = 0.14*80 + 20

y = 31.20

So both plans will cost $31.20 if you use up 80 minutes

Find the zeros of the function.
Reika [66]

Answer:

x = - 4, x = - \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the zeros let g(x) = 0, that is

(- 5x - 1)(2x + 8) = 0 ← in standard form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

- 5x - 1 = 0 ( add 1 to both sides )

- 5x = 1 ( divide both sides by - 5 )

x = \frac{1}{-5} = - \frac{1}{5}

2x + 8 = 0 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

2x = - 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 4

Thus

smaller x = - 4

larger x = - \frac{1}{5}

Solve 4 by 216 raise to minus 2 by 3 + 1 by 256 raise to 3 by 4 + 2 by 243 raise to 1 by 5​
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

214....

Step-by-step explanation:

If the question is : solve 4 by 216 raise to minus 2 by 3 + 1 by 256 raise to minus 3 by 4 + 2 by 243 raise to minus 1 by 5​

The given expression can be written as:

4/(216)-2/3+1/(256)-3/4+2/(243)-1/5

This expression has three terms.

Notice that the exponents are negative:

We will change the division into multiplication so that the exponents will become positive;

4*(216)^2/3+ 1*(256)^3/4+ 2*(243)^1/5

If we multiply 6 three times it will give us 6^3=6*6*6=216

If we multiply 4 four  times it will give us 4^4=4*4*4*4=256

If we multiply 3 five times it will give us 3^5=3*3*3*3*3=243

So we will write it as:

=4*(6^3)^2/3+ 1(4^4)3/4 +2(3^5)^1/5

=4(6)^2+(4)^3+2(3)

=4*36+64+6

=144+64+6

=214

The answer is 214....
