The DiMonte Corporation invented a new type of sunglass lens. Their variable expenses are $12.66 per unit, and their fixed expen

ses are $111,200. a. How much does it cost them to produce one lens? 15,000 lenses? b. Express the expense function algebraically. What is the slope of the expense function? c. If the slope is interpreted as a rate, give the units to use. d. What is the average cost, to the nearest cent, of producing 15,000 lenses?e. What is the average cost, to the nearest cent, of producing 17,000 lenses? f. As the number of lenses increased from 15,000 to 17,000, did the average expense per lens increase or decrease?

Answer:

a)one lens: 111,212.66

15000 lenses: 301,100

b)y=111,200+12.66x

slope: 12.66

c)12.66 dollars per unit of lens produced

d) 20.07

e) 19.2

f)decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Cost of producing one lens

fixed expenses+variable expenses=111,200+12.66=111,212.66

Cost of producing 15,000 lenses

fixed expenses+variable expenses=111,200+12.66(15,000)=301,100

b)Expense function:

let y be the expense cost

let x be the number of lenses produced

y=111,200+12.66x

Slope:

The function is  a line equation: y=mx+b where m is the slope.

In this case b=111,200 and m=12.66. So the slope is 12.66

c) the cost increases 12.66 dollars per unit of lens produced

d) The cost of producing 15000 lenses is:

111,200+12.66(15,000)=301,100

If DiMonte produces 15000 lenses, the average cost per lens is:

301,100/15000=20.073≈20.07

e)The cost of producing 17000 lenses is:

111,200+12.66(17,000)=326,420

If DiMonte produces 17000 lenses, the average cost per lens is:

326,420/17,000=19.2

f)The average per lens decrease.

4x2-28x+49  

Final result :

 (2x - 7)2

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 (22x2 -  28x) +  49

Step  2  :

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1     Factoring  4x2-28x+49  

The first term is,  4x2  its coefficient is  4 .

The middle term is,  -28x  its coefficient is  -28 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +49  

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   4 • 49 = 196  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  196  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -28 .

     -196    +    -1    =    -197  

     -98    +    -2    =    -100  

     -49    +    -4    =    -53  

     -28    +    -7    =    -35  

     -14    +    -14    =    -28    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -14  and  -14  

                    4x2 - 14x - 14x - 49

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   2x • (2x-7)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   7 • (2x-7)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (2x-7)  •  (2x-7)

            Which is the desired factorization

Multiplying Exponential Expressions :

2.2    Multiply  (2x-7)  by  (2x-7)  

The rule says : To multiply exponential expressions which have the same base, add up their exponents.

In our case, the common base is  (2x-7)  and the exponents are :

         1 , as  (2x-7)  is the same number as  (2x-7)1  

and   1 , as  (2x-7)  is the same number as  (2x-7)1  

The product is therefore,  (2x-7)(1+1) = (2x-7)2  

Final result :

 (2x - 7)2

Which of these is a simplified form of the equation 8y + 4 = 6 + 2y + 1y?
larisa86 [58]
The first one would be the right one!
  
you just take all the y one side and the numbers on one side 
 so 8y+4= 6+3y

now 8y-3y= 6-4

therefore 5y = 2

Louie is trying to find a rectangular canvas for his art project. Its height must measure 18 inches and form a 48° angle with th
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

27 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of the diagonal, we just need to use the cosine relation of the 48° angle.

The adjacent side to the angle is the height of the canvas, and the hypotenuse formed is the diagonal of the canvas. So, we have that:

cos(48) = height / diagonal

0.6691 = 18 / diagonal

diagonal = 18 / 0.6691 = 26.9 inches

Rounding to the nearest inch, the diagonal of the canvas measures 27 inches
