Answer:
The five gallons is cheaper since 97.45 divided by 5 is equal to 19.49.
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Demand function
price (x) demand (D(x))
4 540
3.50 810
D - 540 810 - 540
----------- = -----------------
x - 4 3.50 - 4
D - 540
----------- = - 540
x - 4
D - 540 = - 540(x - 4)
D = -540x + 2160 + 540
D = 2700 - 540x
D(x) = 2700 - 540x
Revenue function, R(x)
R(x) = price * demand = x * D(x)
R(x) = x* (2700 - 540x) = 2700x - 540x^2
b) Profit, P(x)
profit = revenue - cost
P(x) = R(x) - 30
P(x) = [2700x - 540x^2] - 30
P(x) = 2700x - 540x^2 - 30
Largest possible profit => vertex of the parabola
vertex of 2700x - 540x^2 - 30
When you calculate the vertex you find x = 5 /2
=> P(x) = 3345
Answer: you should charge a log-on fee of $2.5 to have the largest profit, which is $3345.
Answer:
135 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
(8x-7)+(12x+57)=180
combine like terms
20x+50 = 180
subtract 50 on both sides
20x = 130
divide by 20
x = 130/20
x = 13/2
x = 6.5
cpq = 12x+57
cpq = 78 + 57
cpq = 135
Find the area of the cone:
Area of cone: ⅓r^2h
⅓r^2h
= ⅓(3.5)^2(7)
= ⅓(12.25)(7)
= 1/3(85.75)
= 85.75/3
1/3 cup sloshed out:
(85.75/3 )/3
= 29.9 cubic cm
Answer:
x = 0.5 to the nearest 1/10.
Step-by-step explanation:
3^-x = x^3 + x
y = x^3 - 3^-x + x = 0
Using a graphing calculator to draw the graph of the above:
The graph crosses the x-axis at x = 0.4798
