162 miles

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

C. 144 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the truck traveled from the warehouse to the airport and then to factory.

First we will find the distance between the warehouse and the airport using the 'Distance formula'.

'Distance Formula' gives the distance between two points $(x_(1),y_(1))$ and $(x_(2),y_(2))$ by $\sqrt{(x_(2)-x_(1))^(2)+(y_(2)-y_(1))^(2)}$ .

As, from the graph, we have,

Warehouse is located at (27,-36) and Airport is located at (-27,36).

So, the distance between them is,

$\sqrt{(-27-27)^(2)+(36-(-36))^(2)}$

i.e. $\sqrt{(-27-27)^(2)+(36+36)^(2)}$

i.e. $\sqrt{(-54)^(2)+(72)^(2)}$

i.e. $√(2916+5814)$

i.e. $√(8100)$

i.e. $90$

So, the distance from warehouse to the airport is 90 miles.

Moreover, as the truck further traveled to the factory which is 72 miles north of the warehouse.

So, the factory is located at (27,72-36) i.e. (27,36).

Then, the distance from the airport (-27,36) to the factory is (27,36) is,

$\sqrt{(27+27)^(2)+(36-36)^(2)}$

$\sqrt{54^(2)+0^(2)}$

$√(2916)$

$54$

So, the distance from airport to the factory is 54 miles.

Thus, the total distance traveled by the truck is 90 + 54 = 144 miles.

Hence, option C is correct.

So first we are going to make as big of a rectangular field as we can with the money that we have for the fencing to surround it. The cost of premium fencing (only the best for your farm, of course) is $11.41 per metre. So with that, and the following equations:A=l*wP=2l+2wWhere A is the area, P is the perimeter, l is the length, and w is the width of a rectangle, we can find the maximum area that we can have for this field.Perimeter of fence:Area of farm:Let’s say we have access to planting 2 different crops, Watermelons and Grapes. We can find the revenue of a crop by the equation:R = (p0 + px)(n0 - nx)Where R is the revenue, p0 is the starting price, n0 is the amount sold at the starting price, p is the price increase, n is the decrease in the amount sold per price increase, and x is the number of price increases.Crop A: Watermelons have a starting price of $12.00 per m2 of area sold. At this price, you can sell 45 m2 worth. For every $2.00 increase, you will sell 1 m2 less. So the first task is to figure out how to put these values into the equation above and turn it into a quadratic function. Then you will need to find the value of x to make the revenue as large as possible. Once you know x, the number of price increases, you can then find what you should price your Watermelons per m2.Equation: R =Number of price increases: x =Price of Watermelon per m^2 =Okay, now we can do the same thing with the grapes, just to give you that extra practice with quadratic functions. The starting price of grapes per m² is $8.00, at which you can sell 60 m² worth. For every $3.00 increase in price, you sell 3 m² less. So use the same method you just used to find the price of grapes per m² of area to maximize revenue.Equation: R =Number of price increases: x =Price of grape per m^2 =Okay, so now, all in all, we have built our farm and found what to price each of our crops at. Now let’s find what amount of each crop to grow and find our profits. Getting right into it, we have the following cost equations:CW = $20.00 * W + $50.00CG = $10.00 * G + $40.00Where CW is the total cost of planting and growing Watermelons, CG is the total cost of planting and growing Grapes, W is the area of Watermelons planted, and G is the area of Grapes planted. Now that we know our cost, we can finally find our profits. Profit is equal to the price per unit area, multiplied by the area sold, subtracted by the total cost planting and growing them, or, Profit = Price * Area - Cost. But at this point, we still don’t know the area of each crop in our field. But we do know a couple of things to figure it out. We know the total area of our farm, found in the first part. Which we can say is, Area = G + W And we were also only given $1590 to plant the crops. So, $1590.00= CW+CG I’ll help you simplify this a bit:$1590.00=$20.00*W+$50.00+$10.00*G+$40.00 $1590.00=$20.00*W+$10.00*G+$90.00So now we have enough information to solve for the areas of Watermelons and Grapes in your field. Here’s some room to do that. Hint: Use either substitution or graph the two equations to find an intersection.Area of watermelon to plant:Area of grapes to pant:Profit of the crops:

Answer: 9.8 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

It increased by 25 cents

25 out of 2.55 is .098 and turned to a percent is 9.8

Answer: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

2.30 ---- 100%

2.55 ----- x

x= 2.55* 100/2.30= 110.87

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

6x9=54=(6*5)+(6*4)

Step-by-step explanation:

6x9=54=(6*5)+(6*4)

6x9=54

54 is the number you are trying to get

6*5= 30

so now you need something to add up to 54

6*4=24

24+30=54

#66 Dimensions of matrix: The dimensions of a matrix are

There is 1 row and 4 columns, hence the dimensions of [1 x 4]

#71: use factor/label conversion method.

#72: common difference is how you get from one number to the next in the sequence. So from 42 to 38, you subtract 4, and the pattern is subtract 4 for the whole sequence. So the common difference is -4

#38: The midpoint is the middle of the two coordinates, so imagine when used to find mean by drawing a number line like 1 to 10 and the mean would be 5. What did you do? You added 1 and 10 and divided by 2.
You can use the same method for finding midpoints on the coordinate plane.
The formula for midpoint is (x1+x2),(y1+y2). So it's (5 + 2) , (8 + 7) which equals (7, 15).

#35: This is the same 3* x^(9*1/5) = 3*x^9/5
Remember square root of a number is the same as that number to the 1/2, and the same with all other roots. The fifth root of x is the same as x to the power of 1/5

#36: This is the same as 36*( x^5*3/2 * y^3*3/2), since you can put the power to each of the numbers almost like the distributive property.
= 36 * (x^15/2 * y^9/2)
