Tyrone is having an 80-foot tree removed from his front yard. One of the tree surgeons ties a rope to the top of the tree and stands 60 feet from the base of the tree while his partner saws through the tree. The rope will help them control the direction in which the tree falls. In the diagram below, X represents the length of rope needed.

Write a numerical expression that satisfies all of the following conditions. 1.)the only number used in the expression is 5 2.)at least one exponent other than 1 is used 3.)when the expression is evaluated, the answer is greater than 40 and less than 50

Since opening night, attendance at play a has increased steadily, while attendance at play b first rose and then fell. equations modeling the daily attendance y at each play are shown below, where x is the number of days since opening night. on what day(s) was the attendance the same at both plays? what was the attendance? play a: y = 8x + 191 play b: y = -x^2 + 26x + 126

Acaterer knows he will need 60, 50, 80, 40 and 50 dinner napkins on five successive evenings. he can purchase new napkins initially at 25 cents each, after which he can have dirty napkins laundered by a fast one-day laundry service (i.e., dirty napkins given at the end of the day will be ready for use the following day) at 15 cents each, or by a slow two-day service at 8 cents each or both. the caterer wants to know how many napkins he should purchase initially and how many dirty napkins should be laundered by fast and slow service on each of the days in order to minimize his total costs. formulate the caterer’s problem as a linear program as follows (you must state any assumptions you make): a. define all variables clearly. how many are there? b. write out the constraints that must be satisfied, briefly explaining each. (do not simplify.) write out the objective function to be minimized. (do not simplify.)
