To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. Let's round the value to the nearest hundredth. As you can see, the digit 8 is in the thousandths place and is greater than 5, therefore, you must round up to 0.038.
2. Now express the value as a single digit times a power of 10, as following:
x
Therefore, the answer is: x
To answer this item, we take the differential of the equation and equate to zero.
C(x) = 0.8x² - 256x + 25939
Differentiation,
dC(x) = 1.6x - 256
dC(x) = 1.6x - 256 = 0
The value of x from the derived equation above is 160.
Thus, the number of machine to be made in order to minimize the cost should be 160.
A = 5 km is your distance it is how far he traveled.
b = 3 km is your displacement it's the length in which he when north.
