David's pumpkin cost $8.22
His sister's pumpkin cost $4.98
They paid $13.20
A) zeroes
P(n) = -250 n^2 + 2500n - 5250
Extract common factor:
P(n)= -250 (n^2 - 10n + 21)
Factor (find two numbers that sum -10 and its product is 21)
P(n) = -250(n - 3)(n - 7)
Zeroes ==> n - 3 = 0 or n -7 = 0
Then n = 3 and n = 7 are the zeros.
They rerpesent that if the promoter sells tickets at 3 or 7 dollars the profit is zero.
B) Maximum profit
Completion of squares
n^2 - 10n + 21 = n^2 - 10n + 25 - 4 = (n^2 - 10n+ 25) - 4 = (n - 5)^2 - 4
P(n) = - 250[(n-5)^2 -4] = -250(n-5)^2 + 1000
Maximum ==> - 250 (n - 5)^2 = 0 ==> n = 5 and P(5) = 1000
Maximum profit =1000 at n = 5
C) Axis of symmetry
Vertex = (h,k) when the equation is in the form A(n-h)^2 + k
Comparing A(n-h)^2 + k with - 250(n - 5)^2 + 1000
Vertex = (5, 1000) and the symmetry axis is n = 5.
Answer:
is an even function.
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall when it means when a function is even or odd. An even function has the following property:
And an odd function has the following property:
So, let's test some values for cos(x).
Let's use π/3:
From the unit circle, was can see that this is 1/2 (refer to the x-coordinate).
Now, let's find -π/3. This is the same as 5π/3. Thus:
And again from the unit circle, we can see that this is 1/2.
Therefore, despite the negative, the function outputs the same value.
Cosine is an even function.
Notes:
Cosine is an even function and sine is an odd function. It's helpful to remember these as they can help you solve some trig problems!
A . Because one you make the ratio 80:48 you simplify (divide until you can divide anymore ).
