Answer:

The term that best describes a figure formed by three segments connecting three non-collinear points is:

Triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that with the help of just one point we can't form any figure.

With the help of two points a line segment can be formed.

And with the help of three points if the three points are collinear a triangle can be formed.

Hence, the term that best describes a figure formed by three segments connecting three non-collinear points is:

Triangle.

Mark earned $40 mowing lawns last week. He spent 3/5 of his money on two books. How much did he spend on those two books?

N76 [4]

First, convert 3/5 to a percent by multiplying it by 20/20, getting 60/100, or 60%. Then, find 60% of 40 by multiplying 60 by 40 to get 2,400 and divide it by 100 to get 24, meaning Mark spend $24 on both books. Each of the books cost $12, as 24/2 is 12.

If C(x) is the cost of producing x units of a commodity, then the average cost per unit is c(x) = C(x)/x. Consider the cost func

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

a) C(1,000)=288,491.11 $

b) c(1,000)=288.49 $/u

c) dC/dx(1,000)=349.74 $/u

d) x=100 u

e) c=220 $/u

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Find the total cost at a production level of 1000 units.

$C(x) = 2,000 + 160x + 4x^{3/2}\\\\C(1,000)=2,000 + 160(1,000) + 4(1,000)^{3/2}\\\\C(1,000)=2,000+160,000+126,491.11= 288,491.11$

(b) Find the average cost at a production level of 1000 units.

$c(x)=C(x)/x\\\\c(1,000)=C(1,000)/1,000=288,491.11/1,000=288.49$

$\frac{dC}{dx} =0+160+4*(3/2)x^{3/2-1}=160+6x^{1/2}\\\\dC/dx|_{1,000}=160+6*(1,000)^{1/2}=160+189.74=349.74$

(d) Find the production level that will minimize the average cost.

$c=2,000x^{-1}+160+4x^{1/2}\\\\dc/dx=2,000(-1)x^{-2}+0+4(1/2)x^{-1/2}=0\\\\-2,000x^{-2}+2x^{-1/2}=0\\\\2x^{-1/2}=2,000x^{-2}\\\\x^{-1/2+2}=1,000\\\\x^{3/2}=1,000\\\\x=1,000^{2/3}=100$
