Answer:

y -(-8) = -6(x - 2) or y - (-8) = -6x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

gradient(m) = -6 point (2,-8)

equation of a line is given as;

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - (-8) = -6(x - 2)

y - (-8) = -6x - 12

A craftsman can sell 10 jewelry sets for $500 each. He knows

liraira [26]

Answer:15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Craftsman sell 10 Jewelry set for $500 each

For each additional set he will decrease the price by $ 25

Suppose he sells n set over 10 set

Earning $=\text{Price of each set}\times \text{no of set}$

Earning $=(500-25n)(10+n)$

$E=5000+500n-25n^2-250n$

differentiate to get the maximum value

$\frac{dE}{dn}=-50n+250$

Equate $\frac{dE}{dn}$ to get maximum value

$-50n+250=0$

$n=\frac{250}{50}$

$n=5$

Thus must sell 5 extra set to maximize its earnings.

How do chapters 8 and 9 develop aristotle’s conception of the mean?

a_sh-v [17]

<span>The mean is a spot between two extremes, though one extreme is worse than the other. It is difficult to find one must have the right tools, and that's why virtue is rare. You don't just find it by wishing it. Aristotle makes the case that the mean is a very real concept which requires one to accurately evaluate both extremes and the range between then find the appropriate action or understanding, the median and aim/pattern actions in that direction. These chapters explain this concept.</span>

What is the volume of a cylinder with base radius 222 and height 666? either enter an exact answer in terms of \piπpi or use 3.1

Leno4ka [110]

In this question, it is given that the base radius is 2 , height is 6 and the value of pi is 3.14 .

And we have to find the volume of the cylinder, and for that, we have to use the following formula

$V = \pi r^2 h$
