A 150-yard pipe is cut to provide drainage for two fields. If the length of one piece (a) is three yards less than twice the length of the second piece (b), what are the lengths of the two pieces?

the table complete is:

x      y

1       4

2      8

3      12

4      16

Where x is the ribbon length in yards and y is the number of bows she can make.

We know that Marina needs 1/4 yards of ribbon for each bow.

Then, with one yard of ribbon, she can make 4 bows, then the relation between y, the number of bows she can make, and x, the yards of ribbon that she has, is:

y = 4*x

Now we want to complete the table:

x           y

1

2

3

4

To do so, we just need to evaluate the above function.

when x = 1.

y = 4*1 = 4

When x = 2:

y = 4*2 = 8

when x = 3

y = 4*3 = 12

when x = 4

y = 4*4 = 16

Then the table complete is:

x      y

Based on the information provided, the cost function, C(x) is given by 80x + 6000 while the demand function, P(x) is given by -1/20(x) + 920.

Mathematically, the revenue can be calculated by using the following expression:

R(x) = x × P(x)

Revenue, R(x) = x(-1/20(x) + 920)

Revenue, R(x) = x(-x/20 + 920)

Revenue, R(x) = -x²/20 + 920x.

Expressing the profit as a function of x, we have:

Profit = Revenue - Cost

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = -x²/20 + 920x - (80x + 6000)

P(x) = -x²/20 + 840x - 6000.

For the value of x which maximizes profit, we would differentiate the profit function with respect to x:

P(x) = -x²/20 + 840x - 6000

P'(x) = -x/10 + 840

x/10 = 840

x = 840 × 10

x = 8,400.

For the maximum profit, we have:

P(x) = -x²/20 + 840x - 6000

P(8400) = -(8400)²/20 + 840(8400) - 6000

P(8400) = -3,528,000 + 7,056,000 - 6000

P(8400) = $3,522,000.

Lastly, we would calculate the price to be charged in order to maximize profit is given by:

P(x) = -1/20(x) + 920

P(x) = -1/20(8400) + 920

P(x) = -420 + 920

P(x) = $500.

Answer:

Your answer is -24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information.

The graph of f(x) and g(x)

Solving for

-6 * f(3) - 6 * g(-1) = ?

think of f(x) = y as x is the input and y is the output.

Input a value of x into f(x) or g(x) gets us a y value.

Looking at the graph of f(3) = -2 and the graph of g(-1) = 6

Now substitute that and solve.

-6 * -2 -6 * 6 = 12 - 36 = -24

Answer: -24

Step-by-step explanation:

We should first find the outputs to the functions f and g with inputs 3 and -1 respectively. We can do this by looking at the graph and finding the y value for each desired x value.

Thus, we can see that f(3) = -2 and g(-1) is 6.

We can replace these into the expression to get

[tex]-6*-2-6*6[/tex]

We should first multiply, so we get

[tex]12 -36[/tex]

[tex]-24[/tex]

Hence, the answer is -24.

The image that completes the question is added as an attachment

From the attached graph, we have:

P(x) = 0.109 when x = 4

Hence, the probability is 0.109

From the attached graph, we have:

P(x) = 0.109 when x = 4

P(x) = 0.093 when x = 5

So, we have:

P(4 or 5) = 0.109 + 0.093

Evaluate

P(4 or 5) = 0.202

Hence, the probability is 0.202

This is represented as:

P(x >= 6)

From the attached graph, we have:

P(x) = 0.022 when x = 6

P(x) = 0.036 when x = 7

P(x) = 0.048 when x = 8

So, we have:

P(x >= 6) = 0.022 + 0.036 + 0.048

Evaluate

P(x >= 6) = 0.106

Hence, the probability is 0.106

This is calculated as:

[tex]E(x) = \sum x * P(x)[/tex]

So, we have:

E(x) = 0.234 * 1 + 0.291 * 2 + 0.167 * 3 + 0.109 * 4 + 0.093 * 5 + 0.022 * 6 + 0.036 * 7 + 0.048 * 8

The equation of the tangent line to the quadratic function y = 3 · x² at the point (x, y) = (1, 3) is y = 6 · x - 3.

Herein we must determine a line tangent to the quadratic equation y = 3 · x² at the point P(x, y) = (1, 3) by algebraic means. The slope of the line can be found by using the secant line formula and simplify the resulting expression:

m = [3 · (x + Δx)² - 3 · x²] / [(x + Δx) - x]

m = 3 · [(x + Δx)² - x²] / Δx

m = 3 · (x² + 2 · x · Δx + Δx ² -  x²) / Δx

m = 3 · (2 · x + Δ x)

If Δx = 0, then the equation of the slope of the tangent line is:

m = 6 · x

If we know that x = 1, then the slope of the tangent line is:

m = 6 · 1

m = 6

Lastly, we find the intercept of the equation of the line: (x, y) = (1, 3), m = 6

b = y - m · x

b = 3 - 6 · 1

b = - 3

The equation of the tangent line to the quadratic function y = 3 · x² at the point (x, y) = (1, 3) is y = 6 · x - 3.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps

1] On the right, put brackets around the 1st 2 terms.

y = (x^2 + 2x) - 6

2] Divide the second term's coefficient by 2 and square the result.

2/2 = 1

3] Square the result

1^2 = 1

4] Add that inside the brackets

y = (x^2 + 2x + 1) - 6

5] Subtract 1 outside the brackets. The original equation is still there.

y = (x^2 + 2x + 1) - 6 - 1

y = (x^2 + 2x + 1) - 7

6] What is inside the brackets is a perfect square.

y = (x + 1)^2 - 7

Using the z-distribution, the 95% confidence interval of the population mean is: (17.5, 24.5).

The confidence interval is:

[tex]\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which:

In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.95[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.96.

For this problem, the other parameters are:

[tex]\overline{x} = 21, \sigma = 26.8, n = 225[/tex]

Hence the bounds of the interval are:

[tex]\overline{x} - z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = 21 - 1.96\frac{26.8}{\sqrt{225}} = 17.5[/tex]

[tex]\overline{x} + z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = 21 + 1.96\frac{26.8}{\sqrt{225}} = 24.5[/tex]
