Answer:

D. Use the Distributive Property. You clear the parentheses and then solve the two-step equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given problem;

         2(w − 3) = 5

To solve this problem:

   Use the distributive property to clear the parentheses;

     2w - 6 = 5

 Then, collect like terms, add 6 to both sides;

    2w  = 5 + 6

    2w  = 11

  Now divide both terms by 2

     w = \frac{11}{2}

A furniture company is introducing a new line of lounge chairs next quarter. These are the cost and revenue functions, where x r
QveST [7]

Answer:

No lower than $208, and no higher than $956.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the revenue (income) function is represented by a quadratic expression (a parabola with branches pointing down), and the cost function is linear with negative slope.

When we plot them, we obtain the graphs shown in the attached image. Notice as well that there are two points of intersection for these two functions. The revenue exceeds (lays above) the cost in between the two points of intersection (marked in red and green).

For the company to make a profit, the revenue has to be larger than the cost, so we study the limiting values for that to happen, which is the points of intersection of these two curves.

The first one (pictured in red) is associated with coordinates (35, 33488) which tells us that is the production of 35 chairs with a revenue of $33,488. That is a cost per chair of $33,488 / 35 = $956.8

The second intersection (pictured in green) is associated with coordinates (125, 26000), which tells us that is the production of 125 chairs with a revenue of $26,000. That is a cost per chair of $26000 / 125 = $ 208

So these values give us the minimum and maximum that the company can charge to make a profit.

What is the sum of the distinct prime factors of 315
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: The exponents in the prime factorization are 2, 1, and 1. Adding one to each and multiplying we get (2 + 1)(1 + 1)(1 + 1) = 3 x 2 x 2 = 12. Therefore 315 has exactly 12 factors.

Step-by-step explanation: First, the exponents in the prime factorization are 2, 1, and 1. Then adding one to each and multiplying we get (2 + 1)(1 + 1)(1 + 1) = 3 x 2 x 2 = 12. Finally, 315 has exactly 12 factors.

L = loudness, in decibels (dB); I = sound intensity, in watts/m2; I0 = 10−12 watts/m2
irina [24]
The sound intensity of the Pile Driver is 39.5
 or nearly 40 times the sound intensity of the jackhammer.


Given with Loudness in dB for pile driver = 112 dB
We have to convert it in terms of sound intensity.
First,
112dB/10 = 11.2 

Then we'll use this as exponent of 10
(10)^(11.2) = 1.5849 * 10 ^ 11

Then use the equation of Watts per square meter to find the intensity:
I / (10^-12 W/m^2) =1.5849 * 10 ^ 11
I = sound intensity = 0.158

Then compare:

Sound intensity of Pile Driver/ Sound intensity of Jackhammer
(0.158) / (0.004)
= 39.5
or nearly 40 times the jackhammer.
