Read the following scenario, which is represented by a polynomial expression. Then answer the questions to interpret the parts of the expression in terms of the given context.

The volunteers at a high school football team’s concession stand are trying to decide on the price of the hot dogs they are selling. When they charge $2 for a hot dog, they sell an average of 70 hot dogs per game. With every $1 increase in the price, the number of hot dogs sold per game decreases by 8.

The volunteers can calculate the revenue earned from selling the hot dogs at each game using the expression -8x2 + 54x + 140, where x is the number of $1 increases in price.

Part A
What is the constant term in the polynomial expression, and what does it represent?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x is the number of $1 increase in the price.

If there is no increase, then the total money earned is

2 × 70 = 140

If there is $1 increase, then the total money earned is

(2 + 1) × [70 - 8(1)]

If there is $2 increase, then the total money earned is

(2 + 2) × [70 - 8(2)]

If we continue the pattern, for x times $1 increase, total money earned is

(2 + x)(70 - 8x) = -8x^{2} +54x+140−8x2+54x+140

If we substitute x = 0 in the above equation, we will get

the total money earned = $140.

It means if there is no increase, then the total money earned = 140.

Hence, 140 is the constant term and it represents that there is no increase in price.

Part (a)

Locate x = -1 on the x axis. Draw a vertical line through this x value until you reach the f(x) curve. Then move horizontally until you reach the y axis. You should arrive at y = 4. Check out the diagram below to see what I mean.

Since f(-1) = 4, this means we can then say

g( f(-1) ) = g( 4 ) = 4

To evaluate g(4), we'll follow the same idea as what we did with f(x). However, we'll start at x = 4 and draw a vertical line until we reach the g(x) curve this time.

Answer:  4

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

Part (b)

We use the same idea as part (a)

f(-2) = 5

g( f(-2) ) = g(5) = 6

Part (c)

Same idea as the last two parts. We start on the inside and work toward the outside. Keep in mind that g(x) is now the inner function for this part and for part (d) as well.

g(1) = -2

f( g(1) ) = f(-2) = 5

7. A 6 litre jug of lemonade contains 1.6 litres of lemon juice and the rest is water. How much lemon juice does a 1.5 litre bottle of lemonade contain?​

Answers

Answer:

5.625 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We have to find how many litres of of lemon juice does a 1 litre jug of lemonade contains :

6 litres ÷ 1.6 litres = 3.75 litres

2. How many litres of lemon juice does a 1.5 litre bottle of lemonade contain?

= 3.75 litres × 1.5 litres

= 5.625 litres #

Answer:

A 1.5 litre bottle of lemonade contains 0.4 litre of lemon juice

Step-by-step explanation

let x be the litre of lemon juice in 1.5 litre of lemonade

litre of lemon juice in 6 litre of lemonade = 1.6

so , [tex]\frac{6}{1.6} = \frac{1.5}{x}[/tex]

    x = [tex]\frac{1.5 * 1.6}{6}[/tex]

    x=[tex]\frac{2.4}{6}[/tex]

    x = 0.4 litre

Answers

The required function of h i.e f(h) is expressed as

[tex]f(h) = \dfrac{1}{h^2-3}[/tex]

Substitution of a function means replacing a variable with another variable without changing the structure of such function. According to the function given, we can see that we are simply meant to replace x with h as shown below:

Given the expression

[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{x^2-3}[/tex]

To get f(h), we will substitute f in place of x that is x -> h as shown

[tex]f(h) = \frac{1}{h^2-3}[/tex]

Hence the required function of h i.e f(h) is expressed as

If side A is 10 inches long, and side B is 24 inches, find the length of the unknown side.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Right Triangles and the Pythagorean Theorem. The Pythagorean Theorem, a2+b2=c2, a 2 + b 2 = c 2 , can be used to find the length of any side of a right triangle.

A hacker is trying to guess someone's password. The hacker knows (somehow) that the password is 10 characters long, and that each character is either a lowercase letter, (a, b, c, etc.), an uppercase letter (A, B, C, etc.) or a numerical digit (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9). Assume that the hacker makes random guesses.

What is the probability that the hacker guesses the password on his first try? Enter your answer as a decimal or a fraction, not a percentage.​

Answers

The probability that the hacker guesses the password on his first try is:

P = 1/(62^10) = 1.19*10^(-18)

We know that the password is 10 characters long.

In each one of these, we can put.

One lower case letter (26 of these)

One upper case letter (26 of these)

one numerical digit (10 of these)

So, for every single digit, we have a total of:

26 + 26 + 10 = 62 options

Now we can find the total number of different passwords, which will be equal to the product between the number of options for each one of the characters.

We know that for each character we have 62 different options.

And we have 10 characters.

Then the product between the numbers of options is:

C = 62^10

Then if the hacker does a random guess, the probability that the random guess is correct is one over the total number of possible combinations.

P = 1/C = 1/(62^10)

The probability that the hacker guesses the password on his first try is:

P = 1/(62^10) = 1.19*10^(-18)

Find the total surface area.


A. 731 cm²

B. 770 cm²

C. 649 cm²

D. 900 cm²

Answers

Answer:770

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 6 faces, so we shall calculate the area of each face then add them

=(11×12) +(11×12) +(11×11)+(11×11)+(11×12)+(11+12)

=770cm^2

The total surface area of the given box will be 770 cm² hence correct option will be option (B).

What is surface area?

The quantity of space enclosing a three-dimensional shape's exterior is its surface area.

In another meaning, if we say side square then it is an area of the square but for a cuboid, there are 6 faces so the surface area will be external to all 6 surfaces area.

Given that the box has 6 faces with sides

2 face has dimension = 11cm and 12 cm

2 face has dimension = 11cm and 11cm

2 face has dimension = 11cm and 12 cm

Total surface area = 2(11 × 12) + 2(11 × 11) + 2(11 × 12) = 770 cm²

Hence, the total surface area will be 770 cm².

An item is regularly priced at $70. Keiko bought it on sale for 80% off the regular price. How much did Keiko pay? $

Answers

Answer:

$14

Step-by-step explanation:

80% of $70 is $14, saving him $56

The other person has a great answer. Here's another approach.

If the discount is 80%, then you have to pay the remaining 20% (the two percentages add to 100%)

20% of 70 = 0.20*70 = 14

The sale price is $14 which is the amount Keiko pays

We see that Keiko saves 70-14 = 56 dollars.

An airplane has an air speed of 700 kilometers per hour at a bearing of 30 degrees The wind velocity is 40 kilometers per hour from the west Use vectors to find the art speed of the plane Round to the nearest hundredth​

Answers

Answer:

The red arrow shows the resultant vector. We have a Side Angle Side triangle ABC so can use The Cosine Rule:

a2=b2+c2−2bccosA

This becomes:

R2=7002+402−(2×700×40×cos45)

R2=491,600−39,597.9

R=672.3xkm/hr

This is the groundspeed of the aircraft.

To find θ we can use The Sine Rule:

sinCc=sinAa

This becomes:

sinθ40=sin45672.3

sinθ=0.04207

θ=2.41∘

This is known as the drift angle and is the correction the pilot should apply to remain on course.

The heading is the direction the aircraft's nose is pointing which is 000∘.

The track is the actual direction over the ground which is 357.6∘

An alternative method to this would be to separate each vector into vertical and horizontal components and add.

Answers

Answer:

2.375

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint of 2 and 3 is 2.5

Since it takes 2 to reach the midpoint 4 units, add 0.125.

And then subtract the midpoint from 0.125

Midpoint = 2.5

2.5 - 0.125 = 2.375

Point P is located at 2.375

A number line is just that – a straight, horizontal line with numbers placed at even increments along the length. The coordinate of point p on the given number line is 2.375. The correct option is C.

What is a number line?

A number line is just that – a straight, horizontal line with numbers placed at even increments along the length. It’s not a ruler, so the space between each number doesn’t matter, but the numbers included on the line determine how it’s meant to be used.

Given that there are 8 divisions between two whole numbers, now since the point P is on the third division. Therefore, the coordinate of point p will be,

Coordinate of point P = 2 + 3/8

                                     =2 + 0.375

                                     = 2.375
