A school typically sells 500 yearbooks each year for $50 each. The economics class does a project and discovers that they can sell 100 more yearbooks for every $5 decrease in price. The revenue for yearbook sales is equal to the number of yearbook sold times the price of the yearbook. Let x represent the number of $5 decreases in price. If the expression that represents the revenue is in the form R(x)=(500+ax)(50-bx). Find the values of a and b.

Answers

Answer 1

we have to calculate the values ​​of A and B, so we have to:

[tex]A=100\\B=5[/tex]

Since the equation is:

[tex]R(X)=(500+ax)(50-bx)[/tex]

And the following information was given:

A school typically sells 500 yearbooks each year for $50 each.

The economics class discovers that they can sell 100 more yearbooks for every $5 decrease in price.

So knowing that by increasing 100 more books sold this is equal to A and the decrease in value is going to be equal to b.

[tex]R(X)=(500+100x)(50-5x)[/tex]

What is LN equal to?

Answers

Since triangle LKJ is similar to triangle LNM,

we know that JK / MN = LK / LN.

JK = 40

MN = 25

LK = LN + KN = LN + 12

LN = ?

Sub these values in and solve for LN...

40 / 25 = (LN + 12) / LN

Simplifying and distributing...

1.6 = 1 + 12 / LN

Subtracting 1 from on both sides...

0.6 = 12 / LN

Multiplying both sides by LN...

0.6 * LN = 12

Dividing both sides by 0.6...

LN = 20

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 1/9 square yard. I hope this helps!

Answer: C. 1/9 sq yd

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a square, you do the side length squared. (1/3)^2 is the same as (1/3) * (1/3). Multiply the numerators together to get 1 * 1 = 1 and the denominators to get 3 * 3 = 9. This gives you 1/9.

Dilate the figure below with a scale factor of 1.5 centered at the origin and then rotate the figure 90° clockwise about the origin.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertices of the quadrilateral are (-4, 1), (-3, 2), (-1, 2) and (-2, 1).

If the given quadrilateral is dilated by ta scale factor of 1.5 about the origin.

Rule for the dilation,

(x, y) → (kx, ky) [k = scale factor]

New vertices of the quadrilateral after the transformation will be,

(-4, 1) → (1.5×4, 1.5×1)

        → (-6, 1.5)

(-3, 2) → (-4.5, 3)

(-1, 2) → (-1.5, 3)

(-2, 1) → (-3, 1.5)

Now the new points are rotated by 90° clockwise about the origin,

Rule for the rotation of the points,

(x, y) → (y, -x)

So the new vertices will be,

(-6, 1.5) → (1.5, 6)

(-4.5, 3) → (3, 4.5)

(-1.5, 3) → (3, 1.5)

(-3, 1.5) → (1.5, 3)

We can plot these points on the graph to form a new (image) quadrilateral.

A high school choir had a car wash to raise money. The number of trucks washed was 2 fewer than half the total number of cars and SUVs washed. They washed twice as many cars as trucks. They washed a total of 28 trucks and cars and SUVs. Let T = the number of trucks, C = the number of cars, and S = the number of SUVs washed. Which ordered triple, (T, C, S) represents the solution to the system below? Verify your answer fully in the box provided.

Answers

Answer:

Number of trucks = 28

Number of cars = 14

Number of SUVs = 46

Total number of vehicles = 88

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T = the number of trucks, C = the number of cars, and S = the number of SUVs washed.

We are told :

They washed twice as many cars as trucks.

Hence: T = 2C

They washed a total of 28 trucks and cars and SUVs

Number of trucks = 28

Number of Cars =

T= 2 C

C = T/2

C = 28/2

C = 14

The number of trucks washed was 2 fewer than half the total number of cars and SUVs washed.

T = 1/2(C + S) - 2

T = 28

C = 14

Hence:

28 = 1/2(14 + S) - 2

28 = 1/2(14) + 1/2(S) - 2

28 = 7 - 2 +S/2

28 - 7 + 2 = S/2

30 - 7 = S/2

23 = S/2

S = 23 × 2

S = 46

Hence, number of SUVs = 46

Total number of vehicles = 28 + 14 + 46

= 88

Suppose y varies directly as x, and y = 10 when x = 25. Find y when x = 18.

Answers

I believe y would equal 3?

Answer:

y = 7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies directly as x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 10 when x = 25, then

10 = 25k ( divide both sides by 25 )

[tex]\frac{10}{25}[/tex] = 0.4 = k

y = 0.4x ← equation of variation

When x = 18, then

y = 0.4 × 18 = 7.2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

QP and QR are tangent segments

∠PCR = 120°

Find:

∠PQR

Tangent lines always intersect a circle at one point. This means that the line from the center of the circle to the point of intersection would be the radius. This also means that the tangent line is perpendicular to the radius of the circle.

Therefore...

∠CPQ=90°

∠CRQ=90°

Using the diagram, we can conclude that Figure CPQR is a quadrilateral. We need to find the sum of the interior angles of the Figure CPQR.

The formula to find the sum of the interior angles of a figure is...

[tex](n-2)\times180[/tex]

Note that n represents the amount of sides the figure has.

In this case Figure CPQR has 4 sides therefore...

[tex](4-2)\times180=2\times180=360^{\circ}[/tex]

Now let's set up an equation to find ∠PQR...

∠PCR + ∠CPQ + ∠CRQ + ∠PQR = 360°

Substitute the measures of the known angles into the equation:

120° + 90° + 90° + ∠PQR = 360°

        120° + 180° + ∠PQR = 360°

                  300° + ∠PQR = 360°

Subtract 300° from both sides

∠PQR = 60°
