The value of x according to the given task is; 12.

<h3>What is the value of x?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the value of x is to be determined.

Since, lines AB and BC are both tangent to the circle and they both share a point of intersection; it follows that;

5x = 3x +24

collect like terms

2x = 24

divide both sides by 2

x = 24/2

x = 12.

A manufacturer produces bolts of a fabric with a fixed width. A quantity q of this fabric (measured in yards) that is sold is a

BigorU [14]

Answer:

$R'(20) = 2000$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Quantity, q

Selling price in dollars per yard, p

$q=f(p)$

Total revenue earned =

$R(p)=pf(p)$

f(20)=13000

This means that 13000 yards of fabric is sold when the selling price is 20 dollars per yard.

f′(20)=−550

This means that increasing the selling price by 1 dollar per yards there is a decrease in fabric sales by 550.

We have to find R'(20)

Differentiating the above expression, we have,

$R'(p) = \displaystyle\frac{d(R(p))}{dp} = \frac{d(pf(p))}{dp} = f(p) + pf'(p)$

Putting the values, we get,

$R'(p) = f(p) + pf'(p)\\\\R'(20) = f(20) + 20(f'(20))\\\\R'(20) = 13000 + 20(-550) = 2000$
