Reymonte went hiking last weekend. He started at an elevation of 49 feet below sea level, which can be thought of as an
elevation of -49 feet. At the end of the hike, his elevation was 281 feet higher than where he started. What was his
elevation relative to sea level, in feet, at the end of the hike?

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{-(-2)\pm \sqrt{(-2)^2-4(-3)(6)}}{2(-3)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

[tex]-3x^2-2x+6=0[/tex]            .... (1)

If a quadratic equation is defined as

[tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]            .... (2)

then the quadratic formula is

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

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

[tex]a=-3,b=-2,c=6[/tex]

Substitute [tex]a=-3,b=-2,c=6[/tex] in the above formula.

[tex]x=\frac{-(-2)\pm \sqrt{(-2)^2-4(-3)(6)}}{2(-3)}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct substitution of the values a, b, and c in the quadratic formula is [tex]x=\frac{-(-2)\pm \sqrt{(-2)^2-4(-3)(6)}}{2(-3)}[/tex].

Answer:

Revenue , Cost and Profit Function

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given the Price/Demand Function as

P(x) = 253-2x

which means when the demand of Cat food is x units , the price will be fixed as 253-2x per unit.

Now let us revenue generated from this demand i.e. x units

Revenue = Demand * Price per unit

R(x) = x * (253-2x)

      = [tex]253x-2x^2[/tex]

Now let us Evaluate the Cost Function

Cost = Variable cost + Fixed Cost

Variable cost = cost per unit * number of units

                      = 3*x

                      = 3x

Fixed Cost = 6972 as given in the problem.

Hence

Cost Function C(x) = 3x+6972

Let us now find the Profit Function

Profit = Revenue - Cost

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

      = [tex]253x-2x^2 - (3x+6972)\\253x-2x^2-3x-6972\\253x-3x-2x^2-6972\\250x-2x^2-6972\\-2x^2+250x-6972\\[/tex]

Now we have to find the quantity at which we attain break even point.

We know that at break even point

Profit = 0

Hence P(x) = 0

[tex]-2x^2+250x-6972[/tex]=0

now we have to solve the above equation for x

[tex]-2x^2+250x-6972 = 0[/tex]

Dividing both sides by -2 we get

[tex]x^2-125x+3486 = 0\\[/tex]

Now we have to find the factors of 3486 whose sum is 125. Which comes out to be 42 and 83

Hence we now solve the above quadratic equation using splitting the middle term method .

[tex]x^2-42x-83x+3486 = 0\\x(x-42)-83(x-43)=0\\(x-42)(x-83)=0\\[/tex]

Hence

Either (x-42) = 0 or (x-83) = 0 therefore

if x-42= 0 ; x=42

if x-83=0 ; x=83

Smallest of which is 42. Hence the number of units at which it attains the break even point is 42.

Final answer:

The cost function is C(x) = $6972 + ($3 × x). The revenue function is R(x) = 253x - 2x². The profit function is P(x) = (253x - 2x²) - ($6972 + $3x). The smallest break-even point is where P(x) = 0.

Explanation:

To answer the student's series of questions involving cost, revenue, and profit functions, as well as the break-even quantity, we need to derive these functions from the given information and perform the necessary calculations. The unit cost to produce bins of cat food is $3, and the fixed cost is $6972. Meanwhile, the price-demand function is given by p(x) = 253 - 2x.

The cost function, C(x), which represents the total cost of producing x units, can be expressed as:

C(x) = Fixed Costs + (Variable Cost per Unit × x)
Thus, C(x) = $6972 + ($3 × x).

The revenue function, R(x), is the total income from selling x units, defined by:

R(x) = Price per Unit × x
So, using the price-demand function, R(x) = (253 - 2x)x = 253x - 2x².

The profit function, P(x), is found by subtracting the cost function from the revenue function:

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
Therefore, P(x) = (253x - 2x²) - ($6972 + $3x).

To calculate the break-even point, where profit is zero, you need to solve the equation P(x) = 0 for x.

Answer:

1. 7

2. 25

3. 2/3

4. 132/425

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood of an event occurring and it can be computed by:

[tex]Probability=\dfrac{favorable\hspace{1mm}outcomes}{all\hspace{1mm}possible\hspace{1mm}outcomes}[/tex]

1. So when you are given a probability of 7/9:

[tex]Probability=\dfrac{favorable\hspace{1mm}outcomes}{all\hspace{1mm}possible\hspace{1mm}outcomes}=\dfrac{7}{9}[/tex]

So the answer is 7.

2. Given the probability is 14/25:

[tex]Probability=\dfrac{favorable\hspace{1mm}outcomes}{all\hspace{1mm}possible\hspace{1mm}outcomes}=\dfrac{14}{25}[/tex]

The number of possible outcomes is 25.

3. You have 14 favorable outcomes out of 21 possible outcomes.

[tex]Probability=\dfrac{favorable\hspace{1mm}outcomes}{all\hspace{1mm}possible\hspace{1mm}outcomes}=\dfrac{14}{21}\div \dfrac{7}{7}=\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]

The answer is 2/3.

The least likely even would be the smallest fraction. If you want to do this the easy way, just change them all to decimal and find the value with the least.

17/35 = 0.49

5/13 = 0.38

132/425 = 0.31

1/2 = 0.5

Since 132/425 = 0.31 is the smallest, then it is the least likely probability.

Answer:

[tex]330\ kg[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

1 kg=1,000 g

1 m= 100 cm

The volume of the granite countertop in cubic centimeters is equal to

[tex]V=(100)(300)(4)\ cm^{3}[/tex]

The density in kg per cubic centimeter is equal to

[tex]D=2.75(\frac{1}{1,000}) \frac{kg}{cm^{3}}[/tex]

Multiply the density by the volume

[tex]2.75(\frac{1}{1,000})(100)(300)(4)[/tex]

[tex]2.75(120)=330\ kg[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]u^2=x^4\\u = x^2[/tex]

Subbing in:

[tex]9u^2-2u-7=0[/tex]

a = 9, b = -2, c = -7

The product of a and c is the aboslute value of -63, so a*c = 63.  We need 2 factors of 63 that will add to give us -2.  The factors of 63 are {1, 63}, (3, 21}, {7, 9}.  It looks like the combination of -9 and +7 will work because -9 + 7 = -2.  Plug in accordingly:

[tex]9u^2-9u+7u-7=0[/tex]

Group together in groups of 2:

[tex](9u^2-9u)+(7u-7)=0[/tex]

Now factor out what's common within each set of parenthesis:

[tex]9u(u-1)+7(u-1)=0[/tex]

We know this combination "works" because the terms inside the parenthesis are identical.  We can now factor those out and what's left goes together in another set of parenthesis:

[tex](u-1)(9u+7)=0[/tex]

Remember that [tex]u=x^2[/tex]

so we sub back in and continue to factor.  This was originally a fourth degree polynomial; that means we have 4 solutions.

[tex](x^2-1)(9x^2+7)=0[/tex]

The first two solutions are found withing the first set of parenthesis and the second two are found in other set of parenthesis.  Factoring [tex](x^2-1)[/tex] gives us that x = 1 and -1.  The other set is a bit more tricky.  If

[tex]9x^2+7=0[/tex] then

[tex]9x^2=-7[/tex] and

[tex]x^2=-\frac{7}{9}[/tex]

You cannot take the square root of a negative number without allowing for the imaginary component, i, so we do that:

[tex]x=[/tex]±[tex]\sqrt{-\frac{7}{9} }[/tex]

which will simplify down to

[tex]x=[/tex]±[tex]\frac{\sqrt{7} }{3}i[/tex]

Those are the 4 solutions to the quartic equation.

Answer:

the functions f(x) and g(x) are equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

Your full question is attached below

The equations of your problem are

f(x) = √(16^x)

f(x) = √(4^(2x))

f(x) = √(4^(2x)) = √(4^x.4^x)

f(x) = 4^(x)

and

g(x) = ∛64^x

g(x) = ∛4^(3x)

g(x) = ∛4^(3x)  =  ∛4^(x) .4^(x) .4^(x)

g(x) = 4^(x)

Thus, the functions f(x) and g(x) are equivalent

Answer:

[tex](f + g) (x)=x^2 +x +3[/tex]

[tex](f - g) (x)=-x^2 +5x +1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following functions:

[tex]f(x)=3x +2\\[/tex] and [tex]g(x) = x^2 -2x +1[/tex]

First we find [tex](f + g) (x)[/tex]

To find [tex](f + g) (x)[/tex] we must add the function f(x) with the function g(x)

[tex](f + g) (x)=3x +2 + x^2 -2x +1[/tex]

[tex](f + g) (x)=x^2 +x +3[/tex]

Now we find [tex](f - g) (x)[/tex]

To find [tex](f - g) (x)[/tex] we must subtract the function f(x) with the function g(x)

[tex](f - g) (x)=3x +2 - (x^2 -2x +1)[/tex]

[tex](f - g) (x)=3x +2 - x^2 +2x -1[/tex]

[tex](f - g) (x)=-x^2 +5x +1[/tex]

Answer:

29; 30

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To the nearest whole number.

Whole numbers are numbers like 27, 28, 29, and 30.

A is between 28 and 29, but it is closer to 29.

To the nearest whole number, A = 29.

2. To the nearest 10

The tens are numbers like 10, 20, 30, and 40.

A is between 20 and 30, but it is closer to 30.

To the nearest ten, A = 30.

Answer:

h = 32.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

h^2 = 28^2 + 16^2 (Pythagoras theorem).

h = √1040

h = 32.25.

Using the Pythagorean theorem, the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle with legs of lengths 28 and 16, rounded to the nearest hundredth, is 32.25.

The question asks for the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle with legs of lengths 28 and 16. To find this, we use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two legs (a and b). Thus, according to the equation a² + b² = c², we substitute the given values to find the hypotenuse length.

Using the given lengths:

a = 28

b = 16

We calculate:

c = √(28² + 16²)

c = √(784 + 256)

c = √(1040)

c = 32.249

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the length of the hypotenuse is therefore 32.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

5/a - 2 / (1 - a) = 2 (a - 1)

Multiply each term by  a(1 - a)(a - 1):

5 (1 - a)(a - 1) - 2a(a - 1)  = 2a(1 - a)

5( a - 1 - a^2 + a)  - 2a^2 + 2a = 2a - 2a^2

5(-a^2 +  2a  - 1) - 2a^2 + 2a = 2a - 2a^2

-5a^2 + 10a - 5 - 2a^2 + 2a - 2a + 2a^2 = 0

-5a^2 + 10a - 5 = 0

-5(a^2 - 2a + 1) = 0

= -5(a - 1)^2 = 0

So a = 1.

But a = 1 cannot be a root because 2/ 1 - a would be 2/0 which is undefined.

Also 2 / (a - 1) is undefined.

To find the height of the football after 1.2 seconds, we substitute t with 1.2 in the polynomial −16t2 + 32t + 3, simplifying to 18.36 feet, which corresponds to answer option C.

The student asked to find the height of a kicked football after 1.2 seconds, with the height given by the polynomial −16t2 + 32t + 3, where t is the time in seconds. To solve for the height after 1.2 seconds, we substitute t with 1.2 in the polynomial, which gives us:

−16(1.2)2 + 32(1.2) + 3

Calculating this gives:

−16(1.44) + 38.4 + 3

−23.04 + 38.4 + 3

15.36 + 3

18.36 feet.

Therefore, after 1.2 seconds, the height of the football is 18.36 feet, making the correct answer option C.

Final answer:

To find the total number of votes polled in the election with three candidates and invalid votes, the sum of votes received by each candidate and the invalid votes is calculated. The total number of votes polled is 1,027,601.

Explanation:

The question pertains to vote totals and calculating the overall number of votes polled in an election with three candidates. To solve this, we will perform simple addition of the votes received by each candidate and also include votes that were declared invalid.

Candidate A received 345,983 votes. Candidate B won the election by a margin of 15,967 votes more than Candidate A, which means Candidate B received 345,983 + 15,967 = 361,950 votes. Candidate C received 279,845 votes, and there were 39,823 invalid votes.

To find the total number of votes polled, add together all the votes:

Votes for Candidate A: 345,983

Votes for Candidate B: 361,950 (since Candidate B won by 15,967 votes more than Candidate A)

Votes for Candidate C: 279,845

Invalid votes: 39,823

Adding these together:

345,983 + 361,950 + 279,845 + 39,823 = 1,027,601

Therefore, the total number of votes polled in the election is 1,027,601.

Answer:

  40 ft by 70 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The 50 ft side of the house can add to the total perimeter of the play area, allowing it to be 170+50 = 220 feet. Then the sum of length and width will be half that, or 110 feet.

Factors of 2800 that have a sum of 110 are 40 and 70.

The play area fence can extend 10 ft either side of the house, out 40 ft, then 70 ft across the back, for a total length of 170 ft. Dimensions of the play area are 40 ft by 70 ft.

Answer:

139 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

So the zip line forms a right triangle.  The height of the triangle is 150 ft, and the opposite angle is 40°.  The horizontal distance covered by the zip liner can be found with trigonometry, specifically with tangent.

tan 40° = 150 / x

x = 150 / tan 40°

x ≈ 179 feet

But this includes the 40 ft long body of water, so the amount of ground covered is:

179 ft - 40 ft = 139 ft

Answer:

(C)

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y = cost of items

Let x = number of items

Total cost  = fixed charge + (cost per item x number of items)

Given:

company A fixed charge = $50 , cost per item = $7

company B fixed charge = $30 , cost per item = $9

For company A,

Total Cost = $50 + ($7 x number of items),

          or

     y = 50 + 7x

Similarly for company B,

Total Cost = $30 + ($9 x number of items),

          or

     y = 30 + 9x

Hence (C) is the correct answer.

For the cost to be the same, Total cost for A = total cost for B

i.e 50 + 7x = 30 + 9x

x = 10 items  (Answer)

The correct system to solve the problem is y=50+7x and y=30+9x. The cost will be the same at both companies when there are 10 items.

The correct system that could be used to solve the problem is (C) y=50+7x and y=30+9x.

To find the number of items where the cost will be the same at both companies, we need to set the two equations equal to each other and solve for x.

50+7x = 30+9x

20 = 2x

x = 10

Therefore, the cost will be the same at both companies when there are 10 items.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 + 3 + 21 + 35 = 60 = 100%

21 + 35 = 56 = x%

60 = 100%

56 = x%

60x = 56 * 100

x = 56* 100 / 60

x = 2*23*2*2*5*5 / 2*2*3*5

x = 23*2*5/3

To find the percent of soldiers in the new army unit, you divide the number of soldiers in the unit by the total number of soldiers in the army and multiply by 100. However, the question doesn't provide the total number of soldiers in the army, making it impossible to calculate this percentage.

The question is asking what percent of the soldiers in the newly formed army unit consists of the total personnels. The total number of soldiers in the unit is the sum of staff sergeants, sergeants, PFCs, and PVTs which is 1 + 3 + 21 + 35 = 60 soldiers. The percent of soldiers in the army is the number of soldiers in the unit divided by the total number of soldiers in the army multiplied by 100. However, without the context of the total number of soldiers in the army, it is impossible to calculate this percentage. For example, if the total army size is 600, then the percent of soldiers in this unit would be (60/600)*100 = 10%. The keywords here are

Option a, 5,000,000 nanometers, is the correct choice as it does not equate to 50 millimeters; it equates to 5 millimeters instead, making it not equal to the other options listed.

Explanation:

The question asks which of the provided options is not equal to 50 millimeters. We can convert each option to see which one does not equal 50 mm:

a. 5,000,000 nanometers (nm) - This equates to 5,000,000 nm × 1 m / 1,000,000,000 nm = 0.005 m or 5 mm, which is not equal to 50 mm.

b. 0.05 meters (m) - This is equal to 0.05 m × 1000 mm / 1 m = 50 mm, which is equal to 50 mm.

c. 5 centimeters (cm) - This is equal to 5 cm × 10 mm / 1 cm = 50 mm, which is equal to 50 mm.

d. 50,000 micrometers (µm) - As 1 µm is 1/1000 mm, this is equal to 50,000 µm × 1 mm / 1000 µm = 50 mm, which is equal to 50 mm.

Therefore, the correct answer is a. 5,000,000 nanometers, as it is the only option that does not equate to 50 mm.
