Given:

The equation is

$1.5x+4.5y=18$

To find:

The y-intercept (in ordered pair).

Solution:

We have,

$1.5x+4.5y=18$

Putting x=0, we get

$1.5(0)+4.5y=18$

$0+4.5y=18$

$4.5y=18$

Divide both sides by 4.5.

$y=\dfrac{18}{4.5}$

$y=4$

So, y-intercept is 4.

Therefore, the graph intersect the y-axis at (0,4).

Relative to the graph of y=3sinx what is the shift of the graph of y=3sin(x+pi/3)

DochEvi [55]

The shifts of the sinus function can be described with the formula:
<span>a<span>sin<span>(<span><span>bx</span><span>−c</span></span>)</span></span></span>+<span>d, where
a is the amplitude
b is the period
c is the phase shift
d is the vertical shift
So, the graph y=3sinx is phase shifted. The phase shift can be calculated as c/b= pi/3/1=pi/3
So, the function is phase shifted for pi/3.</span>

2.14x - 42.9 for x = 22.4 ?<br> A. -18.36<br> B. 5.026<br> C. 47.939<br> D. 90.839

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Your answer would be B., because you would multiply

2.14 x 22.4 =

47.939

then you will subtract that by 42.9

47.939 - 42.9 =

5.026

A company produces and sells 211,600 boxes of t-shirts each year. Each production run has a fixed cost of $400 and an additional

Illusion [34]

Answer: $x=46$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Company Produces and sells 211600 boxes of T-shirt each year

Fixed cost =$ 400

Additional cost = $ 3 per box

storage cost =$ 2

let x be the no of production run

therefore

Holding cost per year $=holding\ cost\times average\ holding\ items=2\times \frac{211600}{2x}=\frac{211600}{x}$

$Yearly\ ordering\ cost=cost\ during\ each\ order\times number\ of\ order\ Placed\ per\ year$

yearly ordering cost $=400x+3\times \frac{211600}{x}$

Total cost C(x) $=\frac{211600}{x}+400x+3\times \frac{211600}{x}$

differentiate C(x) w.r.t to x we get

$\frac{\mathrm{d} C(x)}{\mathrm{d} x}=400-\frac{3\times 211600}{x^2}-\frac{1}{211600}$

Put $\frac{\mathrm{d} C(x)}{\mathrm{d} x}=0$ to get max/min value

$400-\frac{211600}{x^2}-\frac{3\times 211600}{x^2}=0$

$x^2=\frac{211600}{100}$

$x=\sqrt{2116}$

$x=46$

therefore 46 runs must be performed

Which equation is the inverse of y = 2x2 – 8?

natita [175]

The inverse of the function is $y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}$

Explanation:

To find the inverse of the equation $y=2x^{2} -8$ , we need to interchange the variables x and y for the variables y and x.

Thus, the equation becomes

$x=2y^{2} -8$

Now, we shall find the value of y.

Now, adding 8 to both sides of the equation, we have,

$x+8=2y^{2}$

Interchanging the sides,

$2y^{2} =x+8$

Dividing by 2 on both sides,

$y^{2} =\frac{x+8}{2}$

Taking square root on both sides,

$y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}$

Thus, the inverse of the function is $y=\pm \sqrt{\frac{x+8}{2}}$
