A piece of wire 6 cm long weighs 30 grams. What is the weight of an 8 m length of the same wire?
A) 400 grams
B) 425 grams
C) 640 grams
D) 4000 grams​

Answers

Answer:

4000 gm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

Change 8 m to cm

8m * 100cm/1m = 800 cm

6 cm             800 cm

-------------  = ------------

30 grams      x gm

Using cross products

6 * x = 800 * 30

6x = 24000

Divide by 6

6x/6 = 24000/6

x = 4000 gm

A soda company has determined that it's profit during lunch on a given day
could be modeled by the function P(s)=-1/3s^2+ 10s + 8 where P is the profit
and s is the number of sodas sold. Determine the amount of sodas that would
maximize profit and how much the company would earn.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  15 sodas will give a maximum profit of 83

Step-by-step explanation:

For quadratic ax^2 +bx +c, the maximum occurs at x = -b/(2a). Here, we have ...

  a = -1/3, b = 10

  x = -b/(2a) = -10/(2(-1/3)) = 15

The profit for sale of 15 sodas is ...

  P(15) = (-1/3s +10)s +8 = (-1/3(15) +10)(15) +8 = 5(15) +8 = 83

The company would earn a maximum of 83 from sale of 15 sodas.

Rearrange the formulae to make x the subject:
ay/x - dx= wx
Thanks in advance

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \frac{ay}{x} - dx = wx [/tex]

multiply x through out:

[tex]ay - {dx}^{2} = w {x}^{2} \\ {wx}^{2} + {dx}^{2} = ay[/tex]

factorise out x²:

[tex] {x}^{2} (w + d) = ay \\ {x}^{2} = \frac{ay}{w + d} [/tex]

take square root on both sides:

[tex] \sqrt{ {x}^{2} } = \sqrt{ \frac{ay}{w + d} } \\ \\ x = \sqrt{ \frac{ay}{w + d} } [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

the biggest obstacle is usually a division by x.

so, let's get rid of it by multiplying both sides of the equation by x

ay - dx² = wx²

then

ay = wx² + dx² = (w+d)x²

y = (w+d)x²/a = x² × (w+d)/a

Answer:

f(-5) = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

f(t) = -3t+4

Let f(t) = 19

19 =  -3t+4

Subtract 4 from each side

19 - 4 =-3t+4-4

15 = -3t

Divide each side by -3

15/-3 = -3t/-3

-5 = t

Answer:

the answer is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

F(t)=-3(t)+4

it told you that F(t) is equal to 19

so -3*-5=15+4=19

If you're confused by what this expression means by looking at it, then try writing or saying out loud the expression.

Two minus negative 6. (2 - (-6))

We know from math that when two negative numbers multiply together, they result in a positive.

We have here the negative 1 (represented as just -, because it isn't necessary to include 1 in the expression) multiply the negative 6.

-1 * -6 = +6.

Now we have the expression 2 + 6.

Add them together.

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

15x^2 + 40x

These are not like terms so they cannot be combined.

(15x * 15x) + 40x

225x^2 + 40x
