Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of the square = s² ( s is the measure of the side )

Here s = x + 2 and A = 7 , thus

(x + 2)² = 7 ← expand left side using FOIL

x² + 4x + 4 = 7 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

x² + 4x = 3 ← as required

erica is making necklaces and bracelets to se at the craft show. it takes her 3 hours to make a necklace and 2 hours to make a b

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Erica should make at least 10 necklaces and 15 bracelets to maximize her profit of P = (18 x + 15 y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of necklaces made = x

Let the number of bracelets made by Erica = y

Now, the time taken to make each necklace = 3 hrs

⇒The time taken to make x necklaces = x times 3 hours = 3x

Also, the time taken to make each bracelet = 2 hrs

⇒The time taken to make y necklaces = y times 2 hours = 2y

So, total time taken to make x necklace and y bracelets = 3x + 2y

Now selling cost of 1 necklace = $18

Also, selling cost of 1 bracelet = $15

So, total selling price of x necklace and y bracelets = 18 x + 15 y

So according to the question:

x + y = 25 ..... (1)

3x + 2y = 60 .... (2)

Solving the above system substitute y = 25- x in (1)

we get: 3x + 2y = 60 ⇒ 3x + 2(25 -x) = 60

or, x = 10

⇒ y = 25 - x = 25 - 10 = 15, or y = 15

So, she should make at least 10 necklaces and 15 bracelets to maximize her profit of P = (18 x + 15 y)

Suppose that the ages of members in a large billiards league have a known standard deviation of σ = 12 σ=12sigma, equals, 12 yea

asambeis [7]

Answer:

$n\geq 23$

Step-by-step explanation:

-For a known standard deviation, the sample size for a desired margin of error is calculated using the formula:

$n\geq (\frac{z\sigma}{ME})^2$

Where:

$\sigma$ is the standard deviation
$ME$ is the desired margin of error.

We substitute our given values to calculate the sample size:

$n\geq (\frac{z\sigma}{ME})^2\\\\\geq (\frac{1.96\times 12}{5})^2\\\\\geq 22.13\approx23$

Hence, the smallest desired sample size is 23

a shopkeeper sold goods for rs 2400 and made a profit of 25% in the process. find his profit per cent if he had sold his goods f

miv72 [106K]

case 1,

Let the CP be ₹x,

SP = ₹2400

Profit = SP – CP

= 2400 – x

Profit % = {(2400–x)/ x} × 100%

According to the question,

{(2400–x)/ x} × 100 = 25

=> (2400–x)/ x= 25 /100

=> 100(2400–x) = 25x [ cross multiplication]

=> 240000 – 100x = 25x

=> 240000 = 25x + 100x

=> 240000 = 125x

=> 240000/125 = x

=> x = 1920

So, CP = ₹1920

case 2,

SP = ₹2040

Profit = SP – CP

= 2040 – 1920

= ₹120

profit % = 120/1920 × 100%

= 16%

<h3>Thus, his profit would be 16% if he had sold his goods for ₹2040.</h3>
