A cube has side length a. The side lengths are decreased to 50% of their original size. Write an expression in simplest form for

Answer:

  V = a³/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the original cube is the cube of the side length:

  V = a³

When the side length is reduced to half its former value, the new volume is ...

  V = (a/2)³ = a³/2³

  V = a³/8 . . . . volume of the new cube

A law firm is going to designate associates and partners to a big new case. The daily rate charged to the client for each associ
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Associates=7

Partners=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of associates be x while partners be y. Since they are a total of 17 then

x+y=17

Therefore, x=17-y

Also considering the charges then

800x+1800y=23600

Subsituting x with 17-y then

800(17-y)+1800y=23600

13600-800y+1800y=23600

1000y=10000

Y=10

X=17-y=17-10=7

A firm has a revenue function that can be represented by r (x)=700x-0.35x^2, where r (x) is the total revenue (in dollars) and x
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

How many units need to be sold to produce the maximum revenue? 1000 units

How many in dollars is the maximum revenue when the maximum of units are sold? $350,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We get max value of a function if we differentiate it and set it equal to 0.

We need to differentiate r(x) and set it equal to 0 and solve for x.

<u><em>That would be number of units sold to get max revenue.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

<u>Then we take that "x" value and substitute into r(x) to get the max revenue amount.</u>

<u />

Before differentiating, we see the rules shown below:

f(x)=ax^n\\f'(x)=n*ax^{n-1}

Where

f'(x) is the differentiated function

Now, let's do the process:

r (x)=700x-0.35x^2\\r(x)=700-2*0.35x\\r(x)=700-0.7x\\0=700-0.7x\\0.7x=700\\x=1000

So, 1000 units need to be sold for max revenue

Now, substituting, we get:

r (x)=700x-0.35x^2\\r(1000)=700(1000)-0.35(1000)^2\\r(1000)=350,000

The max revenue amount is $350,000

irinina [24]
For
ax+by=c
the slope is -a/b
20x+25y≥200
slope=-20/25=-4/5
negative slope

yint is where x=0
20(0)+25y≥200
25y≥200
y≥98
positive yint

x+y<10
slope=-1/1=-1
yint is where x=0
y<10
yint is at y=10

since it is equal, it is solid line
to tell if it is above then sub (0,0) and see if true
0≥200
false
shade on side that doesn't have (0,0), shade above line


x+y<10 doesn't have equal under so it is dashed
test (0,0)
0<10
true, it is shaded below

test point (4,5)

20(4)+25(5)≥200
80+125≥200
225≥200
true

4+5<10
9<10
true


so the ones that are true are

The line x + y < 10 has a negative slope and a positive y-intercept.
The line representing 20x + 25y ≥ 200 is solid and the graph is shaded above the line.
The overlapping region contains the point (4, 5).

Show a way to count from 170 to 410 using tens and hundreds. circle at least 1 benchmark number
Anastasy [175]
Benchmark are numbers that are used as standards to which the rest of the data is compared to. When counting numbers using a number line, the benchmark numbers are the intervals written on the axis. For benchmark numbers of 10, the number line on top of the attached picture is shown. Starting from 170, the tick marks are added by 10, such that the next numbers are 180, 190, 200, and so on and so forth. When you want to find 410, just find the benchmark number 410.

The same applies to benchmark numbers in intervals of 100. If you want to find 170, used the benchmark numbers 100 and 200. Then, you estimate at which point represents 170. For 410, you base on the benchmark numbers 400 and 500.

fifteen darts have landed on the dart board shown. each dart scores 3,5, or 7 points. in how many different ways can the fifteen
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The answer is "8".

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number are a, b, c then value is as follows:

a= 3

b= 5

c= 7

The addition of equation ⇒ a+b+c =15....................(i)

multiply by the value ⇒ 3a + 5b + 7c = 75 ...............(ii)

let b= 15-a-c which  subtract from equation (ii)  

equation:

 ⇒ 3a + 5b + 7c = 75

⇒ 3a + 5(15-a-c) + 7c = 75

⇒ 3a +75-5a-5c+7c = 75

⇒ 3a -5a-5c+7c  = 75-75

⇒ -2a + 2c  = 0

⇒ 2(c-a)  = 0

⇒ (c-a)  = 0

⇒ c=a

if we put value in between 0 to 7 from it satisfies the two equations, with c=a and b = 15 - a - c. So, the correct answer is 8.
