You decide to market your own custom computer software. You must invest $3,255 for computer hardware, and spend $2.90 to buy and package each disk. If each program sells for $13.75, write a system of equations and determine how many disks you must sell to break even.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

13.75x = 3,255 + 2.90x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Amount invested on computer hardware = $3,255

Amount invested to buy and package each disk = $2.90

Selling price for each program = $13.75

We need to find the equation that is used to find how many disks you must sell to break even. Let there are n disks that you must sell.

ATQ,

$3,255 is a fixed amount. $2.90 and $13.75 depends on x.

So,

13.75x = 3,255 + 2.90x

We can solve the above equation to find the no. of disks.

13.75x - 2.90x = 3255

10.85x = 3255

x = 300

Hence, you must sell 300 disks to break even.

Is this the X factor method and how would you do it?

Answer:  D.  (x - 8)

====================================

Work Shown:

4x^2 - 8x - 192

4(x^2 - 2x - 48)

4(x - 8)(x + 6)

We see that (x - 8) is one factor

To factor x^2-2x-48 into (x-8)(x+6), we need to find two numbers that

add to -2, andmultiply to -48

Through trial and error you should find the two values are -8 and 6 since

-8 + 6 = -2-8*6 = -48

-----------

Another approach is to use the quadratic formula to solve x^2-2x-48 = 0. You should find that the two roots are x = 8 and x = -6.

Those two roots lead to the equations x-8 = 0 and x+6 = 0.

Then use the zero product property to get (x-8)(x+6) = 0

This shows that x^2-2x-48 factors to (x-8)(x+6)

A cheetah can run a rare of 105,600 years per hour find the number of miles the cheetah could run at this rate in 5 minutes.

Answers

Answer:

360 yards per 5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

A cheetah can ride up to 105,600 yards per hour.

An hour is equal to 60 km.

It can run up to 'x' miles per 5minutes.

So, 360 x 5/ 5

= 1800/5

=  360 yards per 5 minutes.

Line 1 y= -5/2x
Line 2 y= -5/2x +8
Which statement about the graph of the line is true

Answers

Answer:

They have the same slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]y = -\frac{5}{2}x[/tex]

[tex]y = -\frac{5}{2}x + 8[/tex]

Required

Determine the true statement about both lines

An equation has a general format of:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Where

[tex]m = slope[/tex]

By comparing this to the equations of both lines, we have that:

For line 1:

[tex]m = -\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

For line 2:

[tex]m = -\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Compare the slopes of both lines, we have that:

[tex]m = m = -\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Hence, we can conclude that both lines have the same slope

[tex]\boxed{\pink{\sf\leadsto Value \ of \ \angle D \ is \ 120^{\circ}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is given to us . in which m ∠ B = 5x and m ∠C = 2x + 12 ° . And we need to find x .

Figure :-

Q. no. 1 ) Find the value of x.

Here we can clearly see that ∠DCB and ∠ABC are co - interior angles . And we know that the sum of co interior angles is 180° .

[tex]\tt:\implies \angle DCB + \angle ABC = 180^{\circ} \\\\\tt:\implies (2x + 12)^{\circ} + 5x^{\circ}=180^{\circ} \\\\\tt:\implies 7x = (180 - 12 )^{\circ} \\\\\tt:\implies 7x = 168^{\circ} \\\\\tt:\implies x =\dfrac{168^{\circ}}{7} \\\\\underline{\boxed{\red{\tt\longmapsto x = 24^{\circ}}}}[/tex]

Hence the value of x is 24° .

[tex]\rule{200}2[/tex]

Q. no. 2 ) Determine the measure of < C .

Here we can see that <C = 2x + 12 ° . So ,

[tex]\tt:\implies \angle C = 2x + 12^{\circ} \\\\\tt:\implies \angle C = 2\times 24^{\circ} + 12^{\circ} \\\\\tt:\implies \angle C = 48^{\circ} + 12^{\circ} \\\\\underline{\boxed{\red{\tt\longmapsto \angle C = 60^{\circ}}}}[/tex]

Hence the value of <C is 60° .

[tex]\rule{200}2[/tex]

Q. no. 3 ) Determine the measure of < D .How you determined the answer .

Here we can clearly see that ∠D and ∠C are co - interior angles . And we know that the sum of co interior angles is 180° .

[tex]\tt:\implies \angle C + \angle D = 180^{\circ} \\\\\tt:\implies 60^{\circ} + \angle D = 180^{\circ}\\\\\tt:\implies \angle D = 180^{\circ} - 60^{\circ} \\\\\underline{\boxed{\red{\tt\longmapsto \angle D = 120^{\circ}}}}[/tex]

Hence the value of <D is 120° .

Which compound inequality has no solution?
Oxs-2 and 2x >6
Oxs-1 and 5x s5
Oxs-1 and 3x >-3
Oxs-2 and 4x s-8
HURRY PLSS

Answers

Answer: The first option:

x ≤ -2  and 2x ≥ 6

Step-by-step explanation:

A compound inequality will have no solution if the inequalities are contradictory.

An example of this would be:

x > 3 and x < 1

There is no value of x that is at the same time larger than 3, and smaller than 1.

Now, let's analyze the options.

1) x ≤ -2  and 2x ≥ 6

This has no solution, because if x ≥ -2, the maximum value that x can take is x = -2

Replacing that in the other inequality we get:

2*(-2) > 6

-4 > 6

This is false, then this compound inequality has no solution.

2) x ≤ -1  and 5*x < 5

This ineqalty has infinite solutions, one can be x = -2

-2 ≤ -1 and 5*(-2) < 5

are both true.

3) x ≤ -1 and 3x ≥ -3

A solution for this can be x = -1

-1 ≤ -1  is true

3*(-1) ≥ -3

-3 ≥ -3 is true.

Then we have at least one solution here.

4) x ≤ -2  and 4x ≤ -8

Here we have infinite solutions, one can be x = -10

-10 ≤ - 2 is true

4*(-10) ≤ -8

-40 ≤ - 8 is also true.

Then the only option that has no solutions is the first one.

Line a passes through that point (-8,-7) and has a slope of 5/8. Choose the equation that best represents A

Answers

Answer:

y = 5/8 x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the slope of the line, m=5/8, which passes through the point (-8,-7).

Let the equation of the line be y=mx+c

where m is the slope of the line and c is a constant.

As m=5/8, so the equation of line become

y= 5/8x+c

As the line passes through the point (-8,-7), so putting y= -7 and x= -8, we have

-7 = 5/8(-8)+c

-7 = -5 + c

c= -7 + 5

c= -2

On putting the value of c, the equation of line become

y=5/8 x -2

Hence, the equation of the line is y = 5/8 x -2.

An electricity company estimates that Daryl will spend £600 on electricity next year.
An administration charge of 15% is added.
Daryl wants to pay in four equal instalments throughout the year,
How much should each payment be?

Answers

Answer:

Each payment should be £172.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of electricity for next year = £600

Administration charge = 15%

Daryl wants to pay in four equal instalments throughout the year,

How much should each payment be?

First we need to find the total cost of bill by adding 15% of administration charge by finding 15% of 600

[tex]15\% \:of\: 600\\=\frac{15}{100}\times 600\\= 90[/tex]

So, 15% of 600 is 90

Now adding 90 into the electricity cost:

600+90

= 690

Now, the total cost of electricity bill is £690

Daryl wants to pay in four equal instalments.

So, divide 690 by 4

Each payment for instalments is: [tex]\frac{690}{4} = 172.5[/tex]

So, Each payment should be £172.5
