BD=7x-10
Solution: x=bd/7 + 10/7

BC=4x-29
Solution: x=Bc/4 + 29/4

CD=5x - 9
Solution: x= cd/5 + 9/5

A rectangular schoolyard is to be fenced in using the wall of the school for one side and 150
lawyer [4039]

Answer:

Part 1) The equation is A(x)=150x-2x^2

Part 2) When x=40 m, the area of the schoolyard is A=2,800 m^2

Part 3) The valid domain consists of all real numbers exceeding zero and below 75 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Formulate an expression for A(x)

Let

x -----> the length of the rectangular school yard

y ---> the width of the rectangular school yard

It is known that

The perimeter for the fencing (taking the school wall as one side) is

P=2x+y

P=150\ m

thus

150=2x+y

y=150-2x -----> this is equation A

The area of the rectangular school yard is

A=xy ----> this is equation B

Substituting equation A into equation B yields

A=x(150-2x)

A=150x-2x^2

Change to function notation

A(x)=150x-2x^2

Part 2) What is the area when x=40?

With x equal to 40 m

substitute the value into the expression from Part 1 to determine A

A(40)=150(40)-2(40^2)

A(40)=2,800\ m^2    

Part 3) What would be a suitable domain for A(x) in this scenario?

We understand that

A signifies the area of the rectangular school yard

x characterizes the length of the rectangular school yard

It follows that

A(x)=150x-2x^2

This forms a vertical parabola opening downwards

The vertex indicates a maximum point

The x-coordinate of the vertex corresponds to the length that maximizes the area

The y-coordinate of the vertex denotes the maximum area

The vertex corresponds to (37.5, 2812.5)

Refer to the accompanying figure

Consequently,

The peak area achieved is 2,812.5 m^2

The x-intercepts are located at x=0 m and x=75 m

The domain for A is the range -----> (0, 75)

All real numbers greater than zero and less than 75 meters

At a certain company, loan agents are paid based on the number of loans they close in a day. Based on company records, the numbe
Zina [3917]

Answer:

C. The mean daily salary is not above $350 per day

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation is displayed below:

Y = a + bX

where,

Y = earnings of a randomly chosen agent

a = $150

b = $50

X = number of loans closed

Now

E(x) = (1 × 0.05) + (2 × 0.10) + (3 × 0.22) + (4 × 0.30) + (5 × 0.18) + (6 × 0.12) + (7 × 0.03)

= 3.94

Consequently,

E(y) = $150 + ($50 × 3.94)

= $347

therefore, option C is incorrect

A students calculation was found to have a 15.6% error, and the actual value was determined to be 25.7 mL. What are the two poss
PIT_PIT [3949]
The true value is 25.7 ml.
The calculated error is 15.6%.
Thus, the error amount equals 0.156 times 25.7, which calculates to 4.0092 ml.

The percentage error indicates that the student's measurement could either exceed or fall short of the true value by this error amount.

This leads to two potential readings:
one possibility is: 25.7 + 4.0092 = 29.7092 ml
the other possibility is: 25.7 - 4.0092 = 21.6908 ml
