Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2,802 boys and 3,693 girls went to Disneyland this weekend

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Equations

Let's call:

b = Number of boys who went to Disneyland this weekend.

g = Number of girls who went to Disneyland this weekend.

The first condition states there was a total of 6,405 people who went to Disneyland this weekend, thus:

[tex]b+g=6,405\qquad\qquad [1][/tex]

The second condition states that the ratio of boys to girls is 7 to 9. This can be written as:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{b}{g}=\frac{7}{9}\qquad\qquad [2][/tex]

To eliminate denominators, multiply [2] by 9g:

[tex]\displaystyle (9g)\frac{b}{g}=(9g)\frac{7}{9}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]9b=7g\qquad\qquad [3][/tex]

From [1]:

[tex]b=6,405-g[/tex]

Substituting into [3]

[tex]9(6,405-g)=7g[/tex]

Operating:

[tex]57,645-9g=7g[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]16g=57,645[/tex]

Solve:

[tex]g=57,645 / 16 \approx 3,603[/tex]

Take the approximate value:

g=3,603

Find b:

[tex]b=6,405-3,603=2,802[/tex]

2,802 boys and 3,693 girls went to Disneyland this weekend

Note: Due to the nature of the problem, the results had to be rounded to the nearest integer. This condition makes the ratio not being exactly as required.

Dustin surveyed 50 students at his school about their music preferences. The results are in the table.


Music Preference Survey
Type of Music

Hip-Hop- 18
Country- 13
Rock- 11
Other- 8


There are a total of 722 students at Dustin’s school. Based on the survey results, which is the best estimate of the number of students who prefer hip-hop music?

A. 180 students
B. 240 students
C. 260 students
D. 405 students

Answers

Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

260 students prefer hip-hop music.

What is Percentage?

To determine the quantity or percentage of something in terms of 100, use the percentage formula. Per cent simply means one in a hundred. Using the percentage formula, a number between 0 and 1 can be expressed. A number that is expressed as a fraction of 100 is what it is. It is mostly used to compare and determine ratios and is represented by the symbol %.

Given:

According to Dustin Survey Hip hop music liked by 18 out of 50

In percentage we can write

x% of 50= 18

50x /100 = 18

x/2 = 18

x= 36%

So, Out of 722 students number of students who prefer hip-hop music

= 36% of 722

= 36/100 x 722

= 260

Hence, 260 students prefer hip-hop music.

Find the slope of the line.
–71 – 2y = 56
Enter your answer in the box

Answers

Well, to find the slope of a line, mx + b = y is the formula, and m is slope.

-71 - 2y = 56
We add the 71 on both sides.
-2y = 126
Divide by -2 on both sides.
y = -63

There is no distinguishable slope in this because y equals an integer, not an expression that includes x or m, so the slope is zero.

The stock price of a company was $35. The stock price fell to $28. Which is the closest to the percent decease in this stock price?

Answers

Subtract the new value from original value to find the difference:

35 - 28 = 7

Divide the difference by the original amount and multiply by 100:

7/35 = 0.2 x 100 = 20%

The decrease was 20%

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract the new value from the original value to find the difference between the two.

35 - 28 = 7

Next, divide the difference by the original amount.

7 / 35 = 0.2

Then, multiply by 100.

.2 x 100 = 20%

We now know that the decrease was 20%

Stephen is in first grade, and his class is creating pasta necklaces! There are two types of pasta to use on the necklaces: long macaroni pieces, and small rotelle pieces which look like wheels with spokes. The directions are to have no more than 35 pieces of pasta on a necklace, and each string is long enough to hold 20 macaroni noodles or 55 pieces of rotelle. Select all of the true statements below.

Answers

Answer:

A: Stephen's necklace Can hold 12 macaroni noodles and 23 pieces of rotelle . C: Stephen's necklace Can have 35 pieces of rotelle E: Stephen's necklace Can have 5 macaroni noodles and 10 pieces of rotelle

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is true because when you add 12 macaroni noodles to 23 pieces of rotelle, you get 35 pieces of Pasta which is the maximum allowed per necklace.

Option B is untrue because 15 macaroni noodles and 21 rotelle  pieces add up to 36 pasta pieces which is higher than the maximum of 35 allowed.

Option C is true because 35 pieces of Rotelle is not higher than the maximum allowed.

Option D is untrue because even though they still add up to the maximum allowed, a string can take no more than 20 macaroni noodles and this option shows 21 macaroni noodles which is over the limit.

Option E is true as this combination of macaroni noodles and rotelle below the maximum.

Answer:

The weekly demand function for x units of a product sold by only one firm is
p = 800 − 0.5x dollars, and the average cost of production and sale is C(with a line on top) = 300 + 2x dollars.

(a) Find the quantity that will maximize profit.

(b) Find the selling price at this optimal quantity.

(c) What is the maximum profit?

Answers

Answer:

a) x = 798   is the quantity that maximizes the profit

b)po(x) = 401 $/unit

c)P(max ) = 636105 $

Step-by-step explanation:

The weekly demand function is equal to the price by unit and the Revenue function is weekly demand times quantity of units then:

R(x) = p(x) * x

R(x) = ( 800 - 0,5*x ) * x

R(x) = 800*x - 0,5*x²

The equation for the profit is:

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

P(x) = 800*x - 0,5*x² - ( 300 + 2*x)

P(x) = 798*x - 0,5*x² - 300

a) P(x) = 798*x - 0,5*x² - 300

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation:

P´(x) = 798 - x

If P´(x) = 0     then    798 - x = 0

x = 798   is the quantity that maximizes the profit

b) Selling price for the optimal quantity is:

p(x) = 800 - 0,5*x

p(x) = 800 - 0,5* 798

po (x) = 800 - 399

po(x) = 401 $/unit

c) Pmax = ?

P(x) = 798*x - 0,5*x² - 300    by subtitution of  x = 798

P(max) = 636804 - 399 - 300

P(max ) = 636105 $

a) The quantity that will maximize profit is [tex]100 \ units[/tex].

b) The selling of at this optimal quantity is [tex]\[/tex][tex]750[/tex] per unit.

c) So, the maximum profit is [tex]\[/tex][tex]25000[/tex].

Demand Function:

A demand function is a mathematical equation that expresses the demand for a product or service as a function of its price and other factors such as the prices of the substitutes and complementary goods, income, etc.

The given demand function,

[tex]P=800-\frac{1}{2}x[/tex]

So, the revenue function is,

[tex]R(x)=p.x\\R(x)=800-x-\frac{1}{2}x^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow[/tex]Average cost is

[tex]\bar{C}=300+2x[/tex]

So, the total cost function is,

[tex]C\left ( x \right )=\bar{C}.x \\ C\left ( x \right )=300x+2x^{2}[/tex]

a) Profit function:

[tex]P\left ( x \right )=R\left ( x \right )-C\left ( x \right ) \\ =800x-\frac{1}{2}x^{2}-300x-2x^{2} \\ P\left ( x \right )=500x-\frac{5}{2}x^{2}[/tex]

For maximum,

[tex]{P}'\left ( x \right )=0 \\ 500\left ( 1 \right )-\frac{5}{2}\left ( 2x \right )=0 \\ 500-5x=0 \\ x=100[/tex]

b) Selling Price:

[tex]P=800-\frac{1}{2}x \\ at \ x=100 \\ P=800-\frac{1}{2}\left ( 100 \right ) \\ =\$ 750[/tex]

c) Maximum Profit:

[tex]P\left ( x \right )=500x-\frac{5}{2}x^{2} \\ P\left ( 100 \right )=500\left ( 100 \right )-\frac{5}{2}\left ( 100 \right )^{2} \\ P\left ( 100 \right )=\$ 25000[/tex]
