Anna is at the movie theater and has $35 to spend. She spends $9.50 on a ticket and wants to buy some snacks. Each snack costs $

EastWind [94]

Answer with explanation:

Amount of money Possessed by Anna = $ 35

Money spent on ticket = $9.50

Money spent on Snacks = $ 3.50

Let x number of snacks, which will be least number of snacks that Anna can buy.

transforming the situation in terms of inequality

→9.50 +3.50 x≤ 35

→9.50 -9.50+3.50 x≤35-9.50

→3.50 x≤25.50

Dividing both sides by 3.50, we get

→x≤7.3(approx)

which can't be number of Snacks, as it will be an integral value.

So, minimum number of snacks with given amount of money = 7

So, Anna can buy snacks(x)={x:x≤7,x=1,2,3,4,5,6,7}=At most 7.

Photon Lighting Company determines that the supply and demand functions for its most popular lamp are as follows: S(p) = 400 - 4

BlackZzzverrR [31]

S(p) = 400 - 4p + 0.00002p^4
D(p) = 2800 - 0.0012p^3

S(p) = D(p)
400 - 4p + 0.00002p^4 = 2800 - 0.0012p^3
0.00002p^4 + 0.0012p^3 - 4p - 2400 = 0
p = $96.24

Use a table of numerical values of f(x,y) for (x,y) near the origin to make a conjecture about the value of the limit of f(x,y)

grigory [225]

Seems to be that the limit to compute is

$\displaystyle\lim_{(x,y)\to(0,0)}\frac{xy}{x^2+2y^2}$

Consider an arbitrary line through the origin $y=mx$ , so that we rewrite the above as

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to0}\frac{mx^2}{x^2+2m^2x^2}=\lim_{x\to0}\frac m{1+2m^2}=\frac m{1+2m^2}$

The value of the limit then depends on the slope $m$ of the line chosen, which means the limit is path-dependent and thus does not exist.

Paul opened a bakery. The net value of the bakery (in

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

1) 2(t - 7)(t + 1)

2) $32,000

Step-by-step explanation:

v(t) = 2t² - 12t - 14

v(t) = 2(t² - 6t - 7) = 2(t - 7)(t + 1)

x = -b/2a = 6/2 = 3

y = 2(3)² - 12(3) - 14 = -32

(3, -32) means at 3 months, -32 thousand dollars
