Mario has a business selling muffins. Let x be the price of a muffin. Then, the profit P for Mario’s business is given by p(x)=-

tester [3916]

To achieve a positive profit p(x)>0, we start with:
$-100 x^{2} +350x-150 \ \textgreater \ 0$

Next, we solve for x:
$-2 x^{2} +7x-3 \ \textgreater \ 0$

The parameters are:
a = -2
b = 7
c = -3

We will apply the quadratic formula:
$x_{1} = \frac{-b+ \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} \\ \\ x_{2} = \frac{-b- \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} \\ \\ x_{1} = \frac{-7+ \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4} = \frac{-7+5 }{-4} = \frac{-2 }{-4} = \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ x_{2} = \frac{-7- \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4} = \frac{-7-5 }{-4} = \frac{-12 }{-4} = 3$

This yields two results—one a fraction, the other a whole number. We focus on the whole number since the muffins sold must be a complete unit. Thus we conclude:
x>3

This isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length, a, that are longer than the length of the base, b. The perimeter of the t

Leona [4166]

B refers to the base of the triangle,
and a signifies the length of the two identical sides.

The measurement labeled as 'a' is larger than 'b' since those equal sides are longer than the base. Given "one of the longer sides measures 6.3 cm," we assign a = 6.3.

Substitute 6.3 for each 'a' in the equation and solve for b:
2a + b = 15.7
2(6.3) + b = 15.7
12.6 + b = 15.7
b = 15.7 - 12.6 (applying subtraction property of equality)
b = 3.1
