Two apps on your phone take away points for using your phone at school. You have 140 points on the first app and 80 points on the second app when a school day begins. Each time you check your phone, you lose 10 points on your first app and $p$ points on your second app. After you check your phone ten times, you have the same number of points on each app. Find the value of $p$

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: p = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

For app one, you start with 140 points, and you lose 10 each time you check your phone.

Then, if you check your phone x times, you will have:

140 - x*10 points in total.

For app two, you start with 80 points, and you lose p points each time you check your phone.

Then, if you check your phone x times, you will have:

80 - x*p points left

We know that when x = 10, you have the same number of points in both apps, then we have the equation:

140 - (10)*10 = 80 - (10)*p

We can solve this for p

140 - 10*10 = 80 - 10*p

140 - 100 = 80 - 10*p

40 = 80 - 10*p

10*p = 80 - 40

10*p = 40

p = 40/10 = 4

In the triangle ABC , Angle A = 46° and Angle B = 83°. How large is the exterior angle at C?

This is a problem with no diagram​

Answers

Answer:

180 - 46 - 83 = 51 is the measure of angle C

the exterior angle at angle C, and angle C, are supplementary. since angle C is 51 because of the interior angle triangle sum theorem, then the exterior angle is: 180 -51 = 129 degrees.

) Luci Lulu opened a cookie store in the mall. She found that the relationship between the price of a cookie, p, and the number of cookies sold, x, is given by the linear relationship x = −2000 p + 4000 . Find the maximum revenue Luci can make selling cookies in one day

Answers

Answer:

The maximum revenue Luci can make selling cookies in one day is $4,004,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

x = −2000 p + 4000 ..................... (1)

Revenue = xp

Revenue = (−2000 p + 4000)p =

Revenue = −2000p^2 + 4000p .................... (2)

The price at which Luci will the maximum profit can be calculated by finding the derivative of equation (2), equating to 0, and then solve for p as follows:

−4000p + 4000 = 0

4000 = 4000p

p = 4000 / 4000

p = 1

This implies that the price at which Luci will the maximum profit is $1.

Substituting p = 1 into equation (2) to obtain the maximum revenue Luci can make selling cookies in one day, we have:

Revenue = (−2000 * 1)^2 + (4000 * 1)

Revenue =  −2000^2 + 4000

Revenue = 4,000,000 + 4000

Revenue = 4,004,000

Therefore, the maximum revenue Luci can make selling cookies in one day is $4,004,000.

9.5=25/t+(-8) helppppppppp

Answers

Answer:

437.5

Step-by-step explanation:

I will REALLY answer your question :)

9.5 = 25/t + -8

The first step here is to simplify t + -8. If you add a negative of  something, you also subtract. This can be rewritten as:

9.5 = 25/t - 8

Now, we need to add 8 to undo the subtraction.

17.5 = 25/t

Now, to undo the division, we will multiply the whole equation by 25.

17.5 x 25 = 437.5

The lines AB and CB intersect at B
(a) Find the co-ordinates of the midpoint of AB
(b) Find the equation of the line CB​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Soln

given,

from the figure

coordinate of B is (5,3),

A(7,0) and C(0,4)

A. solution

let, M(x,y) be the mid point of AB

A(7,0) = (x1,y1)

B(5,3) = (x2,y2)

we know

x = (x2+x1)/2

or, x = (5+7)/2

or, x = 12/2

or, x = 6

and for y

y = (y2+y1)/2

or, y = (3+0)/2

or, y = 3/2

therefore M(x,y) = (6,3/2)

B. solution

let,

C(0,4) = (x1,y1)

B(5,3) = (x2,y2)

equation of line is ;

(y - y1)/(x - x1) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

or, (y - 4)/(x -0) = (3 - 4)/(5 - 0)

or, (y - 4)/(x - 0) = -1 / 5

by cross multiply

or, 5×(y - 4) = -1×(x)

or, 5y - 20 = -x

or, x + 5y = 20 is the required equation.

RT

Answers

Answer:

RT = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Point S is on line segment

R------------S------------T

RS + ST = RT

Given

ST=3x-8

RT=4x

RS=4x-7,

Step 1

We find x

4x - 7 + 3x - 8 = 4x

4x + 3x -7 - 8 = 4x

7x - 15 = 4x

7x - 4x = 15

3x = 15

x = 15/3

x = 5

Step 2

We find RT

RT = 4x

x = 5

RT = 4 × 5

RT = 20

The numerical length of RT is 20

Joey built a skateboarding ramp. The base of the ramp along the ground is 13 feet, and the top of the ramp is 7 feet off the ground. What is the length of the ramp's incline?

Answers

Answer:

14.77 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the pythagoras theorem to get the length of the ramp

l² = 13² + 7²

l is the length of the ramp

l² = 169 + 49

l² = 218

l = √218

l = 14.77 feet

Hence the length of the ram is 14.77 feet
