The cost, in dollars, for a doll company to produce x number of dolls is given by the function below. Which statement best describes the minimum cost of production for the company? The minimum cost of production is $260 for 70 dolls. The minimum cost of production is $35 for 383 dolls. The minimum cost of production is $383 for 35 dolls. The minimum cost of production is $70 for 260 dolls.
Final answer:
The minimum cost of production for the company is $260 for 70 dolls.
Explanation:
The minimum cost of production for the company can be determined by examining the options given. The correct statement is:
The minimum cost of production is $260 for 70 dolls.
In the given function, the cost of production is represented by the variable x. The equation cost = 50 + 10x describes the cost of producing x number of dolls. By substituting x with 70 in the equation, we can calculate the cost as follows:
Cost = 50 + 10 * 70 = 50 + 700 = $750
Therefore, the minimum cost of production for the company is $260 for 70 dolls.

A firecracker shoots up from a hill 160 feet high, with an initial speed of 90 feet per second. Using the formula H(t) = −16t2 + vt + s, approximately how long will it take the firecracker to hit the ground?
A. Five seconds
B. Six seconds
C.Seven seconds
D.Eight seconds
H(t) = -16t² + vt + s
Where -16 is half of the gravitational constant of almost 32 ft/sec (downward, thus negative),
v is the initial velocity (90), and
s is the starting height (160)
so we have:
H(t) = -16t² + 90t + 160
How long before it hits the ground? Solve for h(t) = 0:
0 = -16t² + 90t + 160
Divide both sides by -2:
0 = 8t² - 45t - 80
Quadratic equation:
t = [ -b ± √(b² - 4ac)] / (2a)
t = [ -(-45) ± √((-45)² - 4(8)(-80))] / (2(8))
t = [ 45 ± √(2025 + 2560)] / 16
t = [ 45 ± √(4585)] / 16
throwing out the negative time:
t = (45 + √4585) / 16
t ≈ 7.04 seconds

zoes living room rug is 3 feet wide and 7 feet long she will cover the rug with 6 inch cardboard pieces for a painting project how many cardboard pieces will zoe need
Zoe will need 84 pieces if they are 6” by 6”
For this case we have that by definition, 1 foot equals 12 inches.
So:
[tex]3 \ ft = 36 \ in\\7 \ ft = 84 \ in[/tex]
So, the area of the Zoes carpet is:
[tex]A = 36 * 84 = 3024 \ in ^ 2[/tex]
If the cardboard pieces are[tex]6 \ in\ by\ 6 \ in[/tex], then the area is:
[tex]36 \ in ^ 2[/tex]
To indicate the number of necessary pieces we divide:
[tex]\frac {3024} {36} = 84[/tex]
Thus, 84 pieces of cardboard are needed
Answer:

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. The equation (y-2)^2/3^2 - (x-2)^2/4^2=1 represents a hyperbola whose foci are blank and blank .
Answer:
The foci are (2 , 7) and (2 , -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
* lets revise the equation of the hyperbola
- The standard form of the equation of a hyperbola with
center (h , k) and transverse axis parallel to the y-axis is
(y - k)²/a² - (x - h)²/b² = 1
- The coordinates of the vertices are ( h ± a , k )
- The coordinates of the co-vertices are ( h , k ± b )
- The coordinates of the foci are (h , k ± c), where c² = a² + b²
* Now lets solve the problem
∵ The equation of the hyperbola of vertex (h , k) is
(y - k)²/a² - (x - h)²/b² = 1
∵ The equation is (y - 2)²/3² - (x - 2)²/4² = 1
∴ k = 2 , h = 2 , a = 3 , b = 4
∵ The foci of it are (h , k + c) and (h , k - c)
- Lets find c from the equation c² = a² + b²
∵ a = 3
∴ a² = 3² = 9
∵ b = 4
∴ b² = 4² = 16
∴ c² = 9 + 16 = 25
∴ c = √25 = 5
- Lets find the foci
∵ The foci are (h , k + c) and (h , k - c)
∵ h = 2 , k = 2 , c = 5
∴ The foci are (2 , 2 + 5) and (2 , 2 - 5)
∴ The foci are (2 , 7) and (2 , -3)
Answer:

For this case we have the following system of equations:
[tex]y-15 = 3x\\-2x + 5y = -3[/tex]
We multiply the first equation by -5:
[tex]-5y + 75 = -15x[/tex]
Now we add the equations:
[tex]-2x-5y + 5y + 75 = -3-15x\\-2x + 75 = -3-15x\\-2x + 15x = -75-3\\13x = -78\\x = \frac {-78} {13}\\x = -6[/tex]
We find the value of the variable "y" according to the first equation:
[tex]y = 3x + 15\\y = 3 (-6) +15\\y = -18 + 15\\y = -3[/tex]
The solution of the system is: (-6, -3)

What is the area of triangle BCD to the nearest tenth of a square centimeter? Use special right triangles to help find the height. Show work.
Answer: 55.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The right triangle shown here is a 30-60-90 triangle. This means that its angles measure 30, 60, and 90 degrees. (I got the 30 degrees by subtracting the other two angles from 180 degrees, as the sum of the angle measures in a triangle is 180 degrees.)
The sides in such a triangle have the ratio of x:x[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]:2x
The x is across from the 30 degree angle, the x[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] is across from the 60 degree angle, and the 2x is across from the 90 degree angle.
The x in this triangle equals to 8 as the eight is across from the 30 degree angle.
This means that the x[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] side will equal 8[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex].
That side is also the height of the triangle. The area of the triangle is then 1/2(8)(8[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]), or about 55.4.
Find m angle T, rounded to the nearest degree
Answer: First option.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use the inverse tangent function to find the value of the angle T:
[tex]\alpha=arctan(\frac{opposite}{adjacent})[/tex]
You can identify in the figure that:
[tex]\alpha=T\\opposite=RG=8\\adjacent=TR=15[/tex]
Then, knowing these values, you can substitute them into [tex]\alpha=arctan(\frac{opposite}{adjacent})[/tex].
Therefore, you get that the value of the angle T rounded to the nearest degree is:
[tex]T=arctan(\frac{8}{15})\\\\T=28\°[/tex]
This matches with the first option.

Sylvia enlarged a photo to make a 24 x 32 inch poster using the dilation DQ,4. What are the dimensions, in inches, of the original photo? 3 × 8 6 × 8 12 × 16 18 × 24
Answer:
6 × 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the dilation factor is 4, and the image was ENLARGED, that means the original photo was smaller. Smaller by a factor of 4.
So, we take the new dimensions (24x32) and we divide each side by the dilation factor of 4:
(24/4) x (32/4) = 6 x 8
It couldn't be the first answer choice (3x8) because that doesn't maintain the ratio of the enlarge picture. The other possible answers do match the right ratio... but only 6x8 is scaled by a factor of 4.
Answer:
6 x 8
Step-by-step explanation:
When you look at DQ,4 and you break it apart a little bit, you will realize that the dilation is 4 and in this case it will increase by 4.
(Don't mind the Q it is just there to tell you where the center point is)
So if you look at the options:
3 x 8 ---- that will not work because 3x4= 12 which is not 32 and not 24 so we should kick that one out.
6 x 8 ---- This is good because 6x4=24 and 8x4=32!
We don't have to go any further (you can if you want though)!
Again, 6 x 8 is your answer.

Decide if the function is an exponential growth function or exponential decay function, and describe its end behavior using limits. y=0.8^x
The given function y=0.8^x is an exponential decay function. It's end behavior is defined such that as x grows significantly large, y approaches 0, and as x becomes significantly negative, y approaches infinity.
Explanation:The function
[tex]y=0.8^x[/tex]represents exponential decay because the base (0.8) is between 0 and 1. When the base of the power function is in this range, it results in a decreasing or 'decay' function. This contrasts with an exponential growth function, where the base would be greater than 1.
Regarding the end behavior of this function, we can analyze it using the concept of limits. As x approaches positive infinity (x -> +∞), y will approach zero (y -> 0) because a fraction (0.8 in this case) to a large power tends to zero. This illustrates the decay aspect of the function. Conversely, as x approaches negative infinity (x -> -∞), y will approach positive infinity (y -> +∞).

The function y = 0.8^x is an exponential decay function. As x increases, y decreases exponentially. The end behavior of the function is that it approaches 0 as x approaches positive and negative infinity.
Explanation:The function y = 0.8^x is an exponential decay function. In an exponential decay function, the base is between 0 and 1, and as x increases, y decreases exponentially. This function represents the decay of a quantity over time, where the quantity is decreasing by 20% for each unit increase in x.
Regarding the end behavior and limits, as x approaches positive and negative infinity, the function approaches 0. This means that the y-values get closer and closer to 0 as x becomes larger and smaller. In other words, the function approaches the x-axis but never reaches it.

Answer:
Use the hyper link
Step-by-step explanation:
I took a picture on the unit.
Answer:
A.The longer leg is √3 times as long as the shorter
B. The hypotenuse is twice as long as the shorter leg
Step-by-step explanation:
The 30-60-90 is a special triangle with two acute angles 30° and 60°
The side across from the 30°= shorter leg
The side across from 60°=longer leg
The side across from 90°=hypotenuse
If we take the shorter side to be x and hypotenuse to be 2x then the longer leg will be;
Apply Pythagorean relationship
a² + b² =c²
c²-a²=b² where-----------c=2x and a=x
(2x)² - x² = b²
4x² - x² =b²
3x² = b²
√3x²=b
x√3 =b
Hence longer leg is √3 times longer than the shorter leg which is x and the hypothenuse 2x is twice the shorter leg which is x

x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
16-4=12

3*4=12
Answer: [tex]x=4[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to find the value of the variable "x".
To solve for "x", the first step is to apply the Subtraction property of equality, which states that:
[tex]If\ a=b\ then\ a-c=b-c[/tex]
Then, you need to subtract 4 from both sides of the equation:
[tex]3x + 4 = 16\\3x + 4-4 = 16-4\\3x=12[/tex]
And finally, you can apply the Division property of equality, which states that:
[tex]If\ a=b\ then\ \frac{a}{c}=\frac{b}{c}[/tex]
Then you can divide both sides of the equation by 3, getting:
[tex]\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{12}{3}\\\\x=4[/tex]

Suppose the initial height of a Pumpkin is 12 feet and the pumpkin is being launched with a velocity of 61 feet per second. Use this information to find out the maximum height the pumpkin will go before landing.
Please show your work
(98 points)
The answer is:
The maximum height before landing will be 69.7804 feet.
Why?Since there is no information about the angle of the launch, we can safely assume that it's launched vertically.
So, we can calculate the maximum height of the pumpkin using the following formulas:
[tex]y=y_o+v_{o}*t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}[/tex]
[tex]v=vo-gt[/tex]
Where,
y, is the final height
[tex]y_o[/tex], is the initial height
g, is the acceleration of gravity , and it's equal to:
[tex]g=32.2\frac{ft}{s^{2} }[/tex]
t, is the time.
Now, we are given the following information:
[tex]y_{o}=12ft\\\\v=61\frac{ft}{s}[/tex]
Then, to calculate the maximum height, we must remember that at the maximum height, the speed tends to 0, so, calculating we have:
Time calculation,
We need to use the following equation,
[tex]v=vo-gt[/tex]
So, substituting we have:
[tex]v=61\frac{ft}{s}-32.2\frac{ft}{s^{2}}*t\\\\-61\frac{ft}{s}=-32.2\frac{ft}{s^{2}}*t\\\\t=\frac{-61{ft}{s}}{-32.2\frac{ft}{s^{2}}}=1.8944s[/tex]
We know that it will take 1.8944 seconds to the pumpkin to reach its maximum height.
Maximum height calculation,
Now, calculating the maximum height, we need to use the following equation:
[tex]y=y_o+v_{o}*t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}[/tex]
Substituting and calculating, we have:
[tex]y=y_o+v_{o}*t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}[/tex]
[tex]y=12ft+61\frac{ft}{s}*1.8944s-\frac{1}{2}32.2\frac{ft}{s^{2}}*(1.8944s)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]y=12ft+61\frac{ft}{s}*1.8944s-\frac{1}{2}32.2\frac{ft}{s^{2}}*(1.8944s)^{2}\\\\y_{max}=12ft+115.5584ft-16.1\frac{ft}{s^{2}}*(3.5887s^{2})\\\\y_{max}=127.5584ft-57.7780ft=69.7804ft[/tex]
Hence, we have that the maximum height before the landing will be 69.7804 feet.

Use the distance formula for coordinate geoemetry and the fact that x1 = 3, y1 = 5, x2 = 6 and y2 = 8 to fill in the formula:
[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]
fills in accordingly:
[tex]d=\sqrt{(6-3)^2+(8-5)^2}[/tex]
which simplifies a bit to
[tex]d=\sqrt{(3)^2+(3)^2}[/tex]
which is
[tex]d=\sqrt{18}[/tex]
The square root of 18 simplifies down to [tex]3\sqrt{2}[/tex], which is 4.2426 in decimal form
Answer:
4.24 units
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the distance formula to solve this.
Distance formula: d = √((x₁ - x₂)² + (y₁ - y₂)²), where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the two coordinates.
Plug in: d = √((3 - 6)² + (5 - 8)²)
Subtract: d = √((-3)² + (-3)²))
Square: d = √(9 + 9)
Add: d = √18
Square root: d = 4.24264... ≈ 4.24 units
A ship sails at 15 miles per hour, while it can motor at 5 miles per hour. It sails for 6 hours to its destination but has to motor on the return trip home. How long does it take for the return trip?
The answer is:
It will take 18 hours for the return trip.
Why?To calculate how long does it take for the return trip, we need to calculate the distance between it destination and the starting point.
We know that the ship sails at 15 miles per hour (mph) for 6 hours, so, calculating the distance we have:
[tex]x=x_o+v*t\\\\x=0+15mph*6hours=90miles[/tex]
We know that the distance between the destination and the starting point is 90 miles, now, to calculate how long does it take the return trip, we need to use the motor speed rate which is equal to 5 miles per hour (mph), so, calculating we have:
[tex]Distance=v*t\\\\t=\frac{Distance}{v}=\frac{90miles}{5mph}=18hours[/tex]
Therefore, we have that it will take 18 hours for the return trip.
Have a nice day!
The ship covers a distance of 90 miles to its destination at 15 mph, sailing for 6 hours. For the return trip motoring at 5 mph, it takes 18 hours.
The question asks how long it takes for a ship to return to its starting point at a slower speed than it originally traveled to its destination. To answer this question, first, we calculate the distance to the destination. Since the ship sails at 15 miles per hour for 6 hours, it covers a distance of 15 miles/hour × 6 hours = 90 miles. We use the same distance for the return trip. However, the ship will now motor back at 5 miles per hour, so the time taken to motor back will be the distance divided by the return speed: 90 miles ÷ 5 miles/hour = 18 hours. Therefore, it takes 18 hours for the return trip home.
