On first week

Quantity of tomato = 25 tons

profit per ton = $250

So if she sells tomato on first week then total profit = 25 * 250 = $6250

On second week

Quantity of tomato =27 ton

profit per kg =$ 235

So if she sells tomato on second week then total profit =27* 235= $6345

On third week

Quantity of tomato = 29 ton

Profit per kg = $220

So if she sells tomato on third week then total profit = 29*220 = $6380

Now consider fourth week

Quantity of tomato =31 ton

Price per kg = $205

So if she sells tomato on fourth week then total profit =31*205 = $6355

so she must ship her tomatoes on third week i.e she will attain $ 6380 as profit.

Let's solve the sine equation.

1. Express sine function in the left side of equation:

2\sin (4x)+6=5,\\ 2\sin (4x)=5-6,\\ 2\sin (4x)=-1,\\ \\ \sin (4x)=-\dfrac{1}{2}.

2. Use the genereal solution to get the solution of your equation:

4x=(-1)^n\arcsin \left(-\dfrac{1}{2}\right) +2\pi n, where n\in Z.

3. Find \arcsin \left(-\dfrac{1}{2}\right):

\arcsin \left(-\dfrac{1}{2}\right)=-\dfrac{\pi}{3}.

4. Substitute part 3 into part 2 and express x:

4x=(-1)^n \left(-\dfrac{\pi}{3}\right) +2\pi n, where n\in Z,

x=(-1)^{n+1}\cdot \dfrac{\pi}{12}+\dfrac{\pi n}{2}, where n\in Z.

5. Solutions of your equation are:

x=(-1)^{n+1}\cdot \dfrac{\pi}{12}+\dfrac{\pi n}{2}, where n\in Z.

Lelu [443]

Answer:

She will have $25 per week Stacey's rate of change is $25.

She will have $300 After 12 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Stacey has a part-time job at the bike shop. She saves $100 every four weeks for a new car.

To find : Her rate of change After four weeks, she will have $ After 12 weeks , she will have $ per week Stacey's rate of change is $ ?

Solution :

In every four weeks she saves $100.

In every one week she save \frac{\$100}{4}.

In every one week she save $25.

After 12 week she save \$25\times 12.

After 12 week she save $300.

The rate of change is r=\frac{100-25}{4-1}

r=25

She will have $25 per week Stacey's rate of change is $25.

She will have $300 After 12 weeks.

vovangra [49]
This is a linear relationship because:

(20-10)/(4-2)=(35-20)/(7-4)=m=5

So we have a line with a slope of 5, and the slope intercept form of a line is:

y=mx+b, and we have found that m=5

y=5x+b, now using any point we can solve for b, use (2,10)

10=5(2)+b

10=10+b

0=b so the line is:

y=5x

(Choice C) C 48:30

(Choice D) D 32:20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio

8 : 5

Select three ratios that are equivalent to 8:5

Check all options

(Choice A) A 16:10

= 16 / 10

Dividing by 2

= 8 / 5

= 8 : 5

(Choice B) B 50:80

= 50 / 80

Dividing by 10

= 5 / 8

= 5 : 8

(Choice C) C 48:30

= 48 / 30

Dividing by 6

= 8 / 5

= 8 : 5

(Choice D) D 32:20

= 32 / 20

Dividing by 4

= 8 / 5

= 8 : 5

(Choice E) E 64:35

= 64 / 35

The equivalent ratios to 8 : 5 are

(Choice A) A 16:10

(Choice C) C 48:30

(Choice D) D 32:20
