Please Help!!!! Please!!! A candlemaker prices one set of scented candles at $10 and sells an average of 200 sets each week. He

finds that when he reduces the price by $1, he then sells 50 more candle sets each week. A function can be used to model the relationship between the candlemaker's weekly revenue, R(x), after x one-dollar decreases in price. This situation can be modeled by the equation y = (blank)x2 + (blank) x + (blank) Thank you SO MUCH!

Answer:

y=-50x^2+300x+2000.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a candle maker prices one set of scented candles at $10 and sells an average of 200 sets each week.  

Revenue=10\times 200=2000

If he reduces the price by $1,then he sells 50 more candle sets each week.

Revenue=(10-1)\times (200+50)=9\times 250=2250

If he reduces the price by x $1,then he sells 50x more candle sets each week.

R(x)=(10-x)\times (200+50x)

R(x)=10(200+50x)-x(200+50x)

R(x)=2000+500x-200x-50x^2

R(x)=-50x^2+300x+2000

It can be written as

y=-50x^2+300x+2000

Therefore, the situation can be modeled by the equation y=-50x^2+300x+2000.

A school pays $1,825 for 150 shirts. This includes the $25 flat-rate shipping cost.
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

a)

We know that the total cost for the 150 shirts (plus a flat-rate of $25) is $1,825.

First, let's find how much costs each shirt.

First, the total cost of the shirts alone (neglecting the flat-rate) is:

$1,825 - $25 = $1,800

Then each shirt costs equal to the quotient of the cost and the number of shirts:

$1,800/150 = $12

Each shirt costs $12.

Then if you order T shirts, the total cost will be the flat-rate of $25 plus T times $12. The equation is:

C(T) = $25 + T*$12

b) C represents the cost

   T represents the number of shirts ordered.

c) The initial value is the constant value, in this case, is $25

The rate of change is the coefficient that multiplies the independent variable (T), in the equation the rate of change is $12.

cestrela7 [59]

Answer: E. The population decreased by 11% each year.

Step-by-step explanation: In A, the pollution increases at a constant rate, but in a linear way, in other words in each day, the pollution increases 10 grams; The same goes for C: ice "grows" a few milimeters each day; In D, as volume is calculated by the multiplication of π and its radius, the increase in the volume is still linear. In B, the proportionality is related to the power of the turbine not the growth or decay of it. In E, a population grows or decreases in a form of A=A₀(1±r)^t. In this case: A = A₀ (1-0.11)^t.

In conclusion, the function that better describes an exponential growth or decay is the decrease of a population.

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

At price 3 and 11, the profit will be $0

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  

<em> A certain companies main source of income is a mobile app. The companies annual profit (in millions of dollars) as a function of the app’s price (in dollars) is modeled by P(x)=-2(x-3)(x-11) which app prices will result in $0 annual profit?</em>

My answer:

Given:

  • x is the app price
  • P(x) is the profit earned

If we want to find out the app price that will result in $0 annual profit? It means we need to set the function:

P(x)=-2(x-3)(x-11) = 0

<=> (x-3)(x-11)= 0

<=> x - 3 = 0 or x - 11=0

<=> x = 3 or x = 11

So at price 3 and 11, the profit will be $0

Hope it will find you well.
