The profit function p(x) of a tour operator is modeled by p(x) = −2x^2 + 700x − 10000, where x is the average number of tours he

arranges per day. What is the range of the average number of tours he must arrange per day to earn a monthly profit of at least $50,000?

Answer:

Range of the average number of tours is between 150 and 200 including 150 and 200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The profit function is modeled as:

p(x)=-2x^2+700x-10000

The profit is at least $50,000.

So, as per question:

p(x)\geq50000\\-2x^2 + 700x-10000\geq 50000\\-2x^2+700x-10000-50000\geq 0\\-2x^2+700x-60000\geq 0\\\\\textrm{Dividing by 2 on both sides, we get}\\\\-x^2+350x-30000\geq 0

Now, rewriting the above inequality in terms of its factors, we get:

-1(x-150)(x-200)\geq 0\\(x-150)(x-200)\leq 0

Now,

x0\\x>200,(x-150)(x-200)>0\\For\ 150\leq x\leq200,(x-150)(x-200)\leq 0\\\therefore x=[150,200]

Therefore, the range of the average number of tours he must arrange per day to earn a monthly profit of at least $50,000 is between 150 and 200 including 150 and 200.

Consider the accompanying matrix as the augmented matrix of a linear system. State in words the next two elementary row operatio
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The next step to solve the system, would be to divide the second row by 3 and we would be left with:  3 * R2

[1 -5 3 0 -2

0 1 -7/3 0 4/3

0 0 1 2 -2]

Then what we will do is multiply row 3 by 7/3 and then subtract it from row 2, that is, R2 - 7/3 * R3, and it would look like this:

[1 -5 3 0 -2

0 1 0 14/3 -10/3

0 0 1 2 -2]

And these would be the next two steps in the process of solving the system.

Help, how would I get my answer for this question?
Maslowich

Answer:

(-4,32)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are (-1,-8)

And given transformation is D_4 r_{x-axis}

We will start from left to right.

First transformation is reflection about x-axis.

When we reflect about x-axis (x,y)\ became\ (x,-y)

So, (-1,-8)=[-1,-(-8)]=(-1,8)

Now next transformation is dilation with a factor 4.

If we do dilation with a factor 'k' to the point (x,y)

New co-ordinates after dilation became (kx,ky)

So, (-1,8)\ became\ (-4,32)
