Answer:
(6,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Variable Definitions:
x= the number of commercials
y= the number of movies
Each commercial earns Emily $50, so x commercials would earn her 50x dollars in royalties. Each movie earns Emily $150, so y movies would earn her 150y dollars in royalties. Therefore, the total royalties 50x+150y equals $600:
50x+150y=600
Since Emily's songs were played on 3 times as many commercials as movies, if we multiply 3 by the number of movies, we will get the number of commercials, meaning x equals 3y.
x=3y
Write System of Equations:
50x+150y=600
x=3y
Solve for y in each equation:
1) 50x+150y=600
150y=−50x+600
y=-1/3x+4
2) x=3y
y=1/3x
The x variable represents the number of commercials and the yy variable represents the number of movies. Since the lines intersect at the point (6,2) we can say:
Emily's songs were played on 6 commercials and 2 movies.
The function is written as:
f(x) = log(-20x + 12√x)
To find the maximum value, differentiate the equation in terms of x, then equate it to zero. The solution is as follows.
The formula for differentiation would be:
d(log u)/dx = du/u ln(10)
Thus,
d/dx = (-20 + 6/√x)/(-20x + 12√x)(ln 10) = 0
-20 + 6/√x = 0
6/√x = 20
x = (6/20)² = 9/100
Thus,
f(x) = log(-20(9/100)+ 12√(9/100)) = 0.2553
<em>The maximum value of the function is 0.2553.</em>
Answer:
8 < x < 34
Step-by-step explanation:
ab = 13, ac = 21, bc = x
The longest side of a triangle must be less than the sum of the other two sides.
If 21 is the longest side:
21 < 13 + x
8 < x
If x is the longest side:
x < 13 + 21
x < 34
Therefore, 8 < x < 34.
50% or 1/2 of 4 is 2 50% or 1/2 of 6 is 3 so then just add them to the respective number since its going up by 50% or 2 in by 3 in \[\frac{ 6 }{ 9}\]
Width of the rectangle is 9 units
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Let the width of the rectangle be x. Then the length = x - 3. Find dimensions of the rectangle if its area = 54 sq. units
Area of the rectangle = length × width
54 = x (x - 3)
54 = x² - 3x
x² - 3x - 54 = 0
x² + 6x - 9x - 54 = 0 (Using Product Sum rule to factorize)
x(x + 6) - 9(x + 6) = 0
(x + 6)(x - 9) = 0
x = -6, 9 (negative value is neglected)
x = 9 units
