Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram is attached below

TW=3
CW=x
TU=x+7
VW=6

TU=TW+WU

x+7=3+WU

WU=x+7-3

WU=x+4

To determine the value of x, we apply the theorem of intersecting chords.

TW X WU = CW X WV

$x(x+4)=6 \times x\\x^2+4x=6x\\x^2=6x-4x\\x^2=2x\\$Divide both sides by x\\x=2$

a rectangular field has side lengths that measure 9/10 mile and 1/2 mile. What is the area of the field

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

9/20, or 0.45 mile.

Step-by-step explanation: $\\$

To find the area of a rectangle, multiply length times width. In this problem we are given both the length and width.

$\frac{9}{10}$ × $\frac{1\\}{2}$ is just 9/20, which is 0.45.

Suppose that the price per unit in dollars of a cell phone production is modeled by p= $45 -0.0125x, where x is in thousands of

qwelly [4]

Answer:

The production level that will maximize the revenue is 1800 (in thousands of phones produced), that is, production of 1,800,000 phones will maximize the revenue.

Step-by-step explanation:

The price per unit of phone is given as

p = 45 - 0.0125x

where x is in thousands of phones produced

Revenue = (price per unit) × (number of units)

Revenue = (45 - 0.0125x) × x

= (45x - 0.0125x²)

To find the maximum revenue, we need to obtain the maximum value of the revenue function.

R(x) = (45x - 0.0125x²)

At maximum point, (dR/dx) = 0 and (d²R/dx²) < 0

R(x) = (45x - 0.0125x²)

(dR/dx) = 45 - 0.025x

at maximum point, (dR/dx) = 0

(dR/dx) = 45 - 0.025x = 0

0.025x = 45

x = (45/0.025) = 1800

Hence, the production level that will maximize the revenue is 1800 (in thousands of phones produced)

That maximum revenue is thus

R(x) = (45x - 0.0125x²)

R(1800) = (45×1800) - (0.0125×1800²)

= 40,500

A maple syrup company is making a new label for its barrels of syrup. If the barrels are 5 feet tall and have a radius of 2 feet

Elanso [62]

Answer:

(A)62.8 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of the barrels = 5 feet

Radius of the barrels= 2 feet

$\pi$ =3.14

The barrel is in the shape of a cylinder and the area of the label the company needs is that of the round sides(curved surface area) of the cylinder.

Curved Surface Area of a Cylinder= $2\pi rh$

=2X3.14X2X5

=62.8 square feet

The company need 62.8 square feet of label.
