Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: b) 625 - 25 |x - 1990| = 550

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

The annual profit of a company was determined by subtracting from $625,000 the product of $25,000 and the number of years either before or after 1990.

That is, On  x year the total profit is,

P(x) =  625,000 - 25,000 |x - 1990|

But again according to the question,

On x years the profit is $ 550,000

Thus, 625,000 - 25,000 |x - 1990| = 550,000

625 - 25 |x - 1990| = 550 ( by dividing both sides by 1000)

Therefore, Option b) is correct.

what are the solution(s) to the quadratic equation 50 – x2 = 0? x = ±2 x = ±6 x = ±5 no real solution

Answers

Consider the given quadratic equation 50-x^2=0

x^2-50=0

Comparing the given quadratic equation to the general equation ax^2+bx+c=0, we get a= 1, b=0 and c= -50

So, the solution to the quadratic equation is given by:

x = (-b \pm √(b^2-4ac))/(2a)

x = (-0 \pm √(0^2-4(1)(-50)))/(2)

x = (\pm √(200))/(2)

x = \pm \sqrt2 (5)

x = \pm 5\sqrt2

So, the solutions to the given quadratic equation are x = \pm 5\sqrt2.

How is the measurement 0.000 065 cm written in scientific notation?

Answers

We have to express 0.000065 cm in scientific notation.

Scientific notation is a mathematical expression used to represent a decimal number between 1 and 10 multiplied by ten, so we can write large numbers using less digits.

Consider 0.000065 cm = 6.5 * 10^-5 cm

Therefore,  6.5 * 10^-5 cm is the scientific notation for the given number 0.000065 cm.

Answer:

6.5 x 10^-5 cm

What is the solution to the proportion? 3y-8/12=y/5? Please be really discriptive

Answers

First you need to cross multiply to get 5(3y-8)=12y, then distribute to get 15y-40=12y, subtract 15y and get -40=-3y, finally divide by -3 to get y=13 1\3

The given expression 3y-8/12=y/5 is proportion to:

⇒ y = 5/21

The given expression is,

3y-8/12=y/5

Now to solve it,

Multiply 12 both sides,

⇒ 12(3y-8/12) = 12(y/5)

We can write it as,

⇒ 36y -  8 = (12/5)y

Multiply with 5 both sides we get,

⇒ 5(36y -  8) = 12y

⇒ 180y - 40 = 12y

Subtract 12y both sides we get,

⇒ 180y - 12y - 40 = 12y - 12y

⇒ 180y - 12y - 40 = 0

⇒          168y - 40 = 0

Add 40 both sides we get

⇒                  168y = 40

⇒                        y = 40/168

                             = 10/42

                             = 5/21

Hence,

⇒                        y = 5/21
