The total amount of candy sold at Cassandra's Candy Corner can be represented by the function C(x) = 4x3 + 10x2 + 54x + 520, where x represents the number of years since the store opened. The amount of types of candy can be modeled by the linear function T(x) = 2x + 10. Which expression represents the amount of candy sold each year per type at Cassandra's Candy Corner?
2x^2 – 5x + 52
2x^2 + 5x + 52
4x^3 + 10x^2 + 52x + 510
4x^3 + 10x^2 + 56x + 530

Answers

Answer 1

Using polynomial division, it is found that the expression that represents the amount of candy sold each year per type at Cassandra's Candy Corner is:

[tex]2x^2 - 5x + 52[/tex]

The amount of candy sold per type is given by the following division:

[tex]\frac{C(x)}{T(x)} = \frac{4x^3 + 10x^2 + 54x + 520}{2x + 10}[/tex]

The denominator can be written as:

[tex]2x + 10 = 2(x + 5)[/tex]

At the numerator, to see if we can simplify, we verify if x = -5 is a factor:

[tex]C(-5) = 4(-5)^3 + 10(-5)^2 + 54(-5) + 520 = 0[/tex]

Since C(-5) = 0, it is a factor of the numerator, and thus, since the numerator is of the 3rd degree, it can be written as a 3 - 1 = 2nd degree polynomial multiplying x + 5:

[tex](ax^2 + bx + c)(x + 5) = 4x^3 + 10x^2 + 54x + 520[/tex]

[tex]ax^3 + (5a + b)x^2 + (5b + c)x + 5c = 4x^3 + 10x^2 + 54x + 520[/tex]

Equaling both sides:

[tex]a = 4[/tex]

[tex]b = 10 - 5a = -10[/tex]

[tex]5c = 520 \rightarrow c = 104[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]C(x) = (4x^2 - 10x + 104)(x + 5)[/tex]

And:

[tex]\frac{C(x)}{T(x)} = \frac{(4x^2 - 10x + 104)(x + 5)}{2(x + 5)} = 2x^2 - 5x + 52[/tex]

Thus, the expression is:

[tex]2x^2 - 5x + 52[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

At the end of the 1st year you have 21,000-0.14(21000)

= (1-0.14)21000 = 0.86(21,000)

So after three years you have 21000(0.86)(0.86)(0.86)

= 21000(0.86)^3

Answer:

Find 14% of 21,000 then multiply by six which gives you 17,640. Then you subtract 21,000-17640. that is your answer.

The scale of a map says that 4 cm represents 5 km. a. what distance on the map (in centimetres) represents an actual distance of 4 kilometres? b. What is the actual number of kilometres that is represented by 5 centimetres on the map?

Answers

Answer:

a. 3 cm

b. 6 km

Step-by-step explanation:

to be completely honest, I just shoot my answer based on the pattern.

if you notice that when the scale is 4 cm, the actual distance is 5 km. When the distance is 4 km, the scale should probably be 3 cm. It's the same with the 5 cm scale, then the distance should be 6 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Use ratios to solve it

a)

4 cm → 5 kmx cm → 4 km

x = 4*4/5 = 3.2 cm

b)

4 cm → 5 km5 cm → x km

x = 5*5/4 = 6.25 km

Question: Find the equation of the line specified.

Perpendicular to 3x + y = -7 and passing through (1,8)

(i really need an explanation on how to do this)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x+7.6666[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must convert  [tex]3x+y=-7[/tex] into slope-intercept form!

To do this we simply just need to subtract -3x from the 3x on the left and move it to the right side. This would result in: [tex]y = -3x-7[/tex]

Now that we have our slope-intercept form for the equation remember that to find the equation that is perpendicular to the given equation, you need to use the opposite reciprocal of the slope. This would be [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] as that is the reciprocal and opposite of [tex]-\frac{3}{1}[/tex]

Now in order to find the "b" variable of the equation that goes through the ordered pair (1, 8) we need to plug it in to the given equation!

That equation would be: [tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x-7[/tex]

Given that x = 1 and y = 8 we can plug those in like so:

[tex]8=\frac{1}{3}(1)+b[/tex]

(make sure to set the -7 to b as that's what we're solving for)

1 / 3 is 0.3333 (infinitely repeating)

Next we need to subtract 0.3333 from 8, which would be 7.6666 (infinitely repeating) Remember that the variable needs to be "alone"!

Now we have our "b" for the equation! Hence the equation would be:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x+7.6666[/tex]

(you can also use [tex]\frac{23}{3}[/tex] for the b as that is the "exact form" of 1 / 3 but they both work)

Hope this helps! Feel free to ask questions!

Answer:

The slope is -3/2

The y intercept is (0, -5) :)

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is whatever is times by x

the y intercept is what’s being subtracted by it

The values of m and b from the equation of the given line are;

m = -3/2 and b = -5

Slope intercept form

We are given the equation;. y = -(3/2)x - 5

Now, the general form of an equation of a line in slope intercept form is;

y = mx + b

Where;

m is slope

b is y-intercept

Thus, comparing the general form to our given equation, we can see that;

m = -3/2 and b = -5

Oliver drove the first 90 miles of his journey in 1.5 hours and the remaining 120 miles in 3 hours. What was the total average speed?

Answers

Answer:

46.6666667

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to know the TOTAL average speed. To do that, we need to know how to get the speed, which is distance/time. Now we have to substitute. The equation we get is: s= (90+120)/(1.5+3). After solving, you should get s= (210miles)/(4.5hrs). Now all we have to do is divide, which equals 46.6666667.

Hope this helps! (:

The required average speed of Oliver is 46.67 miles per hour.

Given that,
Oliver drove the first 90 miles of his journey in 1.5 hours and the remaining 120 miles in 3 hours, what was the total average speed is to be determined.

What is speed?

Speed is defined as when an object is subjected to move, the distance covered by the object in a certain time interval is the speed of that object.

What is average?

The average of the values is the ratio of the total sum of values to the number of values.

Here,
Total distance traveled = 90 + 120 = 210 miles
Total time taken = 1.5 + 3 = 4.5 hours
Average speed = distance / time
                       = 210 / 4.5
                       = 46.67 miles per hour

Thus, the required average speed of Oliver is 46.67 miles per hour.
