When x=30 units, y = profit = -5(30)^2 + 300(30) + 15000 = $19500

<span>P(x)=-5x^2+300x+15,000 is the equation of a parabola and represents profit.  Its graph opens down.  Our job is to find the x-coordinate of the vertex (which is the x-coord of the maximum profit) and then the corresponding y-value.

The formula x = -b / (2a) will produce that x-coordinate:

        -(300)
x = ------------ = 30
         2(-5)

When x=30 units, y = profit = -5(30)^2 + 300(30) + 15000 = $19500  (answer)

<u>Complete Question</u>

The circle is inscribed in triangle PRT. A circle is inscribed in triangle P R T. Points Q, S, and U of the circle are on the sides of the triangle. Point Q is on side P R, point S is on side R T, and point U is on side P T. The length of R S is 5, the length of P U is 8, and the length of U T is 6. Which statements about the figure are true?

Answer:

(B)TU ≅ TS

(D)The length of line segment PR is 13 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the question is drawn for more understanding,

The theorem applied to this problem is that of tangents. All tangents drawn to a circle from the same point are equal.

Therefore:

|PQ|=|PU|=8 Units

|ST|=|UT| =6 Units

|RS|=|RQ|=5 Units

(b)From the above, TU ≅ TS

(d)Line Segment |PR|=|PQ|+|QR|=8+5=`13 Units

The perimeter of the norwegian flag is 190 inches. What are the dimensions of the flag?
mario62 [17]
<span>The dimensions are 40 inches by 55 inches.

Explanation<span>:
We know that perimeter is the sum of all of the sides. Since this is rectangular, opposite sides are equal. This gives us
y+11/8y+y+11/8y=190.

Combining like terms, we have
2y+22/8y=190.

Writing 22/8 as a mixed number, we have
2y+2 3/4y=190
4 3/4y=190.

Divide both sides by 4 3/4:
(4 3/4y)</span></span>÷<span><span>(4 3/4)=190</span></span>÷<span><span>(4 3/4)
y=190</span></span>÷<span><span>(4 3/4).

Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction:
y=190</span></span>÷<span><span>(19/4).

To divide fractions, flip the second one and multiply:
 y=190*(4/19)=760/19=40.

Since y=40, 11/8y=11/8(40)=440/8=55.</span></span>
