The function C(x) = -2x2 + 38x + 40 models the sales, in hundreds of

millions of dollars, of compact discs for years since 1990.

Answers

Answer 1

Question:

Rewrite the function to reveal when sales of compact discs and $0.

Answer:

The cost in 2010 is $0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]C(x) = -2x^2 + 38x + 40[/tex]

Required

Find x when [tex]C(x) = 0[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]C(x) = -2x^2 + 38x + 40[/tex]

[tex]-2x^2 + 38x + 40=0[/tex]

Expand

[tex]-2x^2 + 40x -2x+ 40=0[/tex]

Factorize:

[tex]-2x(x - 20) -2(x- 20)=0[/tex]

[tex](-2x - 2)(x- 20)=0[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]-2x-2=0\ or\ x - 20 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x = -1\ or\ x = 20[/tex]

x represents time.  So, it cannot be negative.

[tex]x = 20[/tex]

20 years after 1990 is: 2010. Hence, the cost in 2010 is $0

The pattern continues. What is the eighth ordered pair in the pattern?

A. (8,13) B. (14, 18). C. (14, 22) D. (16, 19)​

Answers

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

X’s are going by +2 and y’s by +3

After identifying the pattern, its eighth ordered pair is: (14, 22), option C.

--------------------------

The ordered pairs given are: (0, 1), (2,4), (4,7), (6, 10)

From them, we can see that for each new ordered pair, x increases by 2, and y increases by 3.Thus, the next ordered pairs are: (8, 13), (10, 16), (12, 19), (14, 22).The eighth ordered pair is given by (14,22), option C.

The smelter produces 384 tons of cast iron a day. How much coke is burned per day during smelting if 15 tons of coke is consumed per 16 tons of cast iron?

Answers

Answer:

360 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

Coke burned : cast iron = 15 : 16

The smelter produces 384 tons of cast iron a day

Let x = tons of coke burned

Coke burned : cast iron = x : 384

Equate both ratios

15 : 16 = x : 384

15/16 = x/384

Cross product

15 * 384 = 16 * x

5,760 = 16x

x = 5,760/16

x = 360

x = tons of coke burned = 360 tons

Solve for the given variable in the equation: ½ n - 3 = 5

n = _______

Answers

Answer:

The correct solution is "n = 16".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

⇒  [tex]\frac{1}{2} n-3=5[/tex]

On adding "3" both sides, we get

⇒  [tex]\frac{1}{2} n-3+3=5+3[/tex]

Mike has a fish tank in the shape of a rectangular prism with dimesions of 6 feet by 5 feet by 3 feet. He has a canister that he uses to fill up the fish tank that is in the shape of a cylinder with a diameter of 2 feet and a height of 4 feet. How many tiems will he need to fil up the canister to fill up the tank?​

Answers

Answer:

7 times

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question :

1. the volume of the rectangular prism has to b determined

2. the volume of the cannister has to be determined

3. divide the volume of the rectangular prism by  the volume of the cannister

Volume of the rectangular prism = Width X Height X Length = 6 x 5 x 3 = 90ft³

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

where

h = height

π =  3.14

Diameter = 2r

radius = 2/2 = 1 feet

3.14 x 1 x 4 = 12.56 feet

90 / 12.56 = 7.2 times

Approximating to the nearest whole number gives 7 times

10. Jacque is adding a rectangular room on the back of his house. The length will be 5 meters

longer than the width. If the area of the room will be 150 square meters, what are the

dimensions?

Answers

Answer:

L = 15 m, b = 10 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let width of the rectangle be b.

Length = 5+b

The area of the rectangle is 150 sq meters.

The area of rectangle is given by :

A = lb

So,

[tex]150=b(5+b)[/tex]

It is a quadratic equation. The solution of this equation is :

b = -15 m and 10 m

Neglecting -15, the width of the rectangle is 10 m.

Length = 5+10

= 15 m

So, the dimensions of the room are 10 m and 15 m.

[tex]\sqrt{45}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there,

In order to solve this problem, you have to know the Pythagorean Theorem:

[tex]a^{2}[/tex] + [tex]b^{2}[/tex] = [tex]c^{2}[/tex]

We can see from the graph that line segment ML and LN are 6 and 3 units respectively. Since we know the lengths of two sides of the triangle, we can use the theorem above to find the hypotenuse (MN).

⇒ [tex]6^{2}[/tex] + [tex]3^{2}[/tex] = [tex]c^{2}[/tex]

⇒ 45 = [tex]c^{2}[/tex]

⇒ c = [tex]\sqrt{45}[/tex]
