(a)
4x + 3y = 23
5x + 2y = 20
(b)
4x + 3y = 23 ⇒ -2(4x + 3y = 23) ⇒ -8x - 6y = -46
5x + 2y = 20 ⇒ 3(5x + 2y = 20) ⇒ 15x + 6y = 60
7x = 14
x = 2
5x + 2y = 20
5(2) + 2y = 20
10 + 2y = 20
2y = 10
y = 5
Answer: biscuit = $2, ice cream = $5
ANSWER
EXPLANATION
The given geometric sequence is
400, 200, 100...
The first term is
The common ratio is
The nth term is
We substitute the known values to get;
Answer:
x= 2.8 and x= -2.8
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out the zeros, we replace x y with 0 and solve for x
Add 4 on both sides
Multiply by 2 on both sides
8= x^2
Now we take square root on both sides
x= +-
x=2.82843 and x=-2.82843
x= 2.8 and x= -2.8
f(c) = 17.12c - 14.56c + 5.4c - 1.20c
f(c)=14.56c - 17.12c + 1.20c - 5.40c14.56c - 17.12c + 12(.5c) - 5.40(.5c)
Answer:
f(c) =17.12c -14.56c + 5.40(.5c) - 1.20(.5c)
Step-by-step explanation:
Profit is the difference between revenue (17.12c +5.40(.5c)) and cost(14.56c+1.20(0.5c)). That difference is expressed by the function shown above.
Answer:
f(c) =17.12c -14.56c + 5.40(.5c) - 1.20(.5c)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's build the f(c) function by steps.
There are c customers.
John has found that on average, each meal served costs the restaurant $14.56 and takes in $17.12.
So, the costs for the restaurant are negative, and what takes positive.
f(c) =17.12c -14.56c
Now the final part
John has also found that on average, each beverage served costs the restaurant $1.20 and takes in $5.40.
Half of these customers order a beverage, and this is why we multiply by 0.5.
So
f(c) =17.12c -14.56c + 5.40(.5c) - 1.20(.5c)
