Answer:

The correct answer is option B. 54 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:-

Area of triangle

Area A = bh/2

b - Base of triangle

h - Height of triangle

To find the area of triangle

Here base b = 9 ft and height h = 12 ft

Area, A = bh/2 = (9 * 12)/2 = 54 ft^2

Therefore the area of given triangle is 54 ft^2

The correct answer is option B. 54 ft^2

Find the partial fraction decomposition of the rational expression with prime quadratic factors in the denominator

SpyIntel [72]

$\dfrac{5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21}{(x-3)(x^2-2)^2}=\dfrac{a_1}{x-3}+\dfrac{a_2x+a_3}{x^2-2}+\dfrac{a_4x+a_5}{(x^2-2)^2}$
$\implies 5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21=a_1(x^2-2)^2+(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)+(a_4x+a_5)(x-3)$

When $x=3$ , you're left with

$147=49a_1\implies a_1=\dfrac{147}{49}=3$

When $x=\sqrt2$ or $x=-\sqrt2$ , you're left with

$\begin{cases}17-8\sqrt2=(\sqrt2a_4+a_5)(\sqrt2-3)&\text{for }x=\sqrt2\\17+8\sqrt2=(-\sqrt2a_4+a_5)(-\sqrt2-3)\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}-5+\sqrt2=\sqrt2a_4+a_5\\-5-\sqrt2=-\sqrt2a_4+a_5\end{cases}$

Adding the two equations together gives $-10=2a_5$ , or $a_5=-5$ . Subtracting them gives $2\sqrt2=2\sqrt2a_4$ , $a_4=1$ .

Now, you have

$5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21=3(x^2-2)^2+(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)+(x-5)(x-3)$
$5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21=3x^4-11x^2-8x+27+(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)$
$2x^4-7x^3-x^2+14x-6=(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)$

By just examining the leading and lagging (first and last) terms that would be obtained by expanding the right side, and matching these with the terms on the left side, you would see that $a_2x^4=2x^4$ and $a_3(-3)(-2)=6a_3=-6$ . These alone tell you that you must have $a_2=2$ and $a_3=-1$ .

So the partial fraction decomposition is

$\dfrac3{x-3}+\dfrac{2x-1}{x^2-2}+\dfrac{x-5}{(x^2-2)^2}$

The cost, in dollars, of producing x belts is given by Upper C (x )equals 970 plus 12 x minus 0.076 x squared. The revenue, i

umka21 [38]

Answer:

$68.44 for each additional belt

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost and revenue functions are:

$C(x) = 970+12x - 0.076x^2\\R(x) =43x^{\frac{3}{4}}$

The profit function, P(x), is given by subtracting the cost function from the revenue function.

$P(x) = R(x) - C(x)\\P(x)=43x^{\frac{3}{4}}+0.076x^2-12x-970\\$

The derivate of the profit function gives us the rate at which profit changes:

$\frac{dP(x)}{dx} =P'(x)=32.25x^{\frac{-1}{4}}+0.152x-12\\$

For x = 484, the rate of change is:

$P'(484)=32.25*484^{\frac{-1}{4}}+0.152*484-12\\P'(484) = \$68.44/belt$

Profit is increasing by $68.44 for each additional belt
