Answer:

C(x)=24,000+19,200x

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Mathematical Modeling</u>

To model a real-life situation, a mathematical model can be constructed in such a way it accurately represents the variables measured in the system.

This problem requires to build a model for the yearly cost of a small and successful business.

The first data is the fixed monthly cost or the money the owner must pay regardless of the number of employees he hires. This cost includes shipping supplies and products for $2,000. To operate for a full year, the fixed cost is 12*$2,000=$24,000.

The other component of the cost function is the variable cost of x employees. Given each employee costs $1,600 each month, having x employees cost 1,600x each month. For a full year, the variable cost will be

12*1,600x=19,200x.

We finally form the total cost function:

\boxed{C(x)=24,000+19,200x}

Answer:

It would roll in this direction.

\nu  =  (-a/\sqrt{a^2+b^2},-b/\sqrt{a^2+b^2})

Step-by-step explanation:

It would roll to the direction of maximum decrease, which is the -1 times the direction of maximum increase, which is given by the gradient of the function.  

Since  

z =  ax^2  + by^2

For this case, the gradient of your function would be

\nabla z  = (2ax , 2by)

And  -1  times the gradient of your function would be

-\nabla z  = (-2ax , -2by)\\

Then, at

 (1,1,a+b),\\x = 1 \\y = 1

So it would go towards

v = (-2a,-2b)

The magnitud of that vector is

|v| =  2\sqrt{a^2+b^2}

and to conclude it would roll in this direction.

\nu  =  (-a/\sqrt{a^2+b^2},-b/\sqrt{a^2+b^2})

yarga [219]
Given:
c = cost
p = people
Spent $300

Formula: c=5p+215

Solving for how many people (p)

C=5P+215
(300)=5P+215               (Subtract 215 on both sides)
85=5P                           (Divide by 5 on both sides)
17=P

The answer is 17. 17 people can afford to host a birthday party.
