5b+8p=431.67
3b+10p=344.75
multiple the first equation by 3:        15b+24p=1295.01
multiple the second equation by 5:  15b+50p=1723.75
subtract to eliminate b: 26p=428.74
p=16.49
plug p=16.49 into the first equation: 5b+8(16.49)=431.67
b=59.95

please double check my calcualtion

<u>Answer:</u>

Vt = 4071.5 ft^3

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Givens:

  • R = 12
  • R = 2r => r = 6

Equations

  1. V = (4/3)(pi)r^3

Find: Vt (Total Volume)

Vt = (1/2)V1 + (1/2)(V2)

Vt = (1/2)(V1 + V2)                 <em>[Factor out (4/3) and (pi) from volumes]</em>

Vt = (1/2)(4/3)(pi)(R^3 + r^3)  <em>[Sub in Values]</em>

Vt = 4071.5 ft^3

The function C(x)=−20x+1681 represents the cost to produce x items. What is the least number of items that can be produced so th
Reptile [31]

Answer:

<em>The least number of items to produce is 41</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Average Cost</u>

Given C(x) as the cost function to produce x items. The average cost is:

\displaystyle \bar C(X)=\frac{C(x)}{x}

The cost function is:

C(x) = -20x+1681

And the average cost function is:

\displaystyle \bar C(X)=\frac{-20x+1681}{x}

We are required to find the least number of items that can be produced so the average cost is less or equal to $21.

We set the inequality:

\displaystyle \frac{-20x+1681}{x}\le 21

Multiplying by x:

-20x+1681 \le 21x

Note we multiplied by x and did not flip the inequality sign because its value cannot be negative.

Adding 20x:

1681 \le 21x+20x

1681 \le 41x

Swapping sides and changing the sign:

41x \ge 1681

Dividing by 41:

x\ge 41

The least number of items to produce is 41
