The equation p = −5x2 + 100x − 250 models the profit p in dollars from selling pizza, where x is the price per pizza in dollars. What is the highest price you can charge per pizza to profit $100?

Answers

Answer 1

The highest price per pizza in a profit of $100 is approximately $15.48

The profit equation is given by:

p = -5 [tex]x^2[/tex]  + 100x - 250

Substitute p = 100 and solve for "x":

100 = -5 [tex]x^2[/tex]+ 100x - 250

To solve this quadratic equation, it can be rearranged it to standard form [tex](ax^2 + bx + c = 0)[/tex]

[tex]5x^2- 100x + 350 = 0[/tex]

Now, we can solve the quadratic equation using the quadratic formula:

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

In our equation, a = 5, b = -100, and c = 350. Substitute these values into the formula:

x =[tex]\frac{(\sqrt{(-100)^2 - 4 \times 5 \times 350}}{2\times5}[/tex]

x= [tex]\dfrac{{100 \pm\sqrt{3000}}}{10}[/tex]

Thus, the two possible solutions for "x":

[tex]x_1[/tex] =[tex]\dfrac{100 + \sqrt{3000}}{10}[/tex]

[tex]x_2[/tex] =[tex]\dfrac{100 - \sqrt{3000}}{10}[/tex]

Calculating the values:

[tex]x_1[/tex]≈ 15.48

[tex]x_2[/tex] ≈ 4.23

The highest price per pizza that results in a profit of $100 is approximately $15.48 (rounded to two decimal places).

Ratnam hired a car from a car renting agency which charges a flat amount of Rs x for travelling up to 40 kilometres and Rs. y per km for every kilometre travelled thereafter. How much should Ratnam pay the agency for a journey of 50 kilometres in Rs. ?

Answers

Answer:

Rs. X + Rs. 10y

Step-by-step explanation:

Charge for 40 km travel = Rs. x per km

Charge for every additional km traveled = Rs. y

Amount paid for 50 km

Fixed charge for 40km = Rs. X

Additional km = 50 - 40 = 10 kilometer

rewrite from: x (x  + 1 ) − 6 ( x + 1 )

(x-6)(x+1)

Answer:

A: (x-6)(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find 2 numbers that add to make -5 and multiply to make -6.

We already have the numbers infront of us, so by process of elimination we can remove B and D.

For the numbers, we need a positive number and a negative number (two negatives make a positive). We can eliminate C because at first -3 multiplied by 2 is -6. However, when -3 is added to 2 we get -1.

If we expand A, it makes the expression that needs to be factorised because...

-6 × 1 = -6

-6 + 1 = -5

So expanding it properly we get.

x² - 6x + x - 6

Simplify.

x² - 5x -6

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: 24.50 feet, Part B: 46.68 square feet, I just took the test and got this right!

The perimeter of the figure is [tex]24.50[/tex] and area of the figure is [tex]45.68[/tex] square feet.

What is Area of Circle?

In geometry, the area enclosed by a circle of radius r is πr². Here the Greek letter π represents the constant ratio of the circumference of any circle to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14159

According to question, the radius of the partial circle with center A is 4 feet.

We have to find the perimeter and area of the figure.

Perimeter of the figure=2πr×[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] +[tex]4\sqrt{2}[/tex]

=2×[tex]3.14[/tex]×[tex]4[/tex]×[tex]0.75+4[/tex]×[tex]1.414[/tex]

[tex]=24.50[/tex]

Area of figure=[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] πr²+[tex]r^{2}[/tex]×[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

=[tex]0.75[/tex]×[tex]3.14[/tex]×[tex]16[/tex][tex]+16[/tex]×[tex]0.5[/tex]

[tex]=37.68+8[/tex]

[tex]=45.68[/tex]

Hence, we can conclude that the perimeter of the figure is [tex]24.50[/tex] and area of the figure is [tex]45.68[/tex] square feet.

Rodney decides to pay a $200 fee in 3
payments. The first payment is 10% of the
original fee. The second payment is 25% of the
original fee. Which expressions represent the
amount of money for the third payment?

Answers

Answer:

65% of the orginal fee or $130.

Step-by-step explanation:

You didn't put the answer options so I am not sure how you want the question to be answered. There are three ways I would write it:

1:  100% = 10% + 25% + 65%

2:  200 = 20 + 50 + 130

3:  200 = (0.1 x 200) + (0.25 x 200) + (0.65 x 200)

All of them basically mean the same thing it is just a matter of how you need it written.

Based on the amount to be paid and the percentage paid in each installment, the expression for the third payment is 65% x 200.

Rodney has to pay $200 in three installments.

The third installment will be:

= Percentage in total - Percentages paid already

= 100% - 10% - 25%

= 65%

The third installment is therefore:

= Percentage to be paid x Amount

= 65% x 200
