So, let's first focus on the first year:

the population then would be: 23000* (100+2)%

100% is the old population the 2% is the incease, so in total it's 102%, or 1.02 - the same number written differently.

So it will be 23000*1.02

After two years it will be 23000*1.02*1.02, and so on

so after x years it will be:

y=23000*1.02^{z}

A certain electronics manufacturer found that the average cost C to produce x DVD/Blu- ray players can be found using the equati
NemiM [27]

Answer:

The minimum average cost is $643.75

It should be built 62.5 machines to achieve the minimum average cost

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that represents the cost C to produce x DVD/BLU-ray players is C = 0.04x² - 5x + 800

To find the minimum cost differentiate C to equate it by 0 to find the average cost per machine and to find the value of the minimum cost

∵ C = 0.04x² - 5x + 800

- Differentiate C with respect to x

∴ \frac{dC}{dx}=0.04(2)x^{2-1}-5(1)x^{1-1}+0

∴ \frac{dC}{dx}=0.08x-5

- Equate \frac{dC}{dx} by 0

∴ 0.08x - 5 = 0

- Add 5 to both sides

∴ 0.08x = 5

- Divide both sides by 0.08

∴ x = 62.5

That means the minimum average cost is at x = 62.5

Substitute the value of x in C to find the minimum average cost

∵ C = 0.04(62.5)² - 5(62.5) + 800

∴ C = 643.75

∵ C is the average cost

∴ The minimum average cost is $643.75

∵ x is the number of the machines

∴ It should be built 62.5 machines to achieve the minimum

Joshua has a ladder that is 12 ft long. He wants to lean the ladder against a vertical wall so that the top of the ladder is 11.
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

The ladder is not safe at this height. The height from ground to top of the ladder is < 11.6 ft for safety reasons and this can be determined by using trigonometry functions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ladder is not safe at this height. The height from ground to top of the ladder is < 11.6 ft for safety reasons and this can be determined by using trigonometry functions.

Given :

Joshua has a ladder that is 12 ft long.

He wants to lean the ladder against a vertical wall so that the top of the ladder is 11.8 ft above the ground.

For safety reasons, he wants the angle the ladder makes with the ground to be no greater than 75°.

Check the angle that the ladder makes with the ground:

The ladder is safe when the angle the ladder makes with the ground to be no greater than 75° but  is  so, the ladder won't be safe.

To make the ladder safe, the height should not be 11.8ft.

The height from ground to top of the ladder is < 11.6 ft for safety reasons.
