certain electronics manufacturer found that the marginal cost C to produce x DVD/Blu- ray players can be found using the equatio

n C = 0.03 x 2 − 8 x + 700 . If the marginal cost were $522, how many DVD/Blu-ray players were produced?

8 0

Answer:

242.

Step-by-step explanation:

C = 0.03 x 2 − 8 x + 700

When the marginal cost = $522 we have:

522 = 0.03 x 2 − 8 x + 700

0.03x^2 - 8x + 700 - 522 = 0

0.03x^2 - 8x + 178 = 0

Using the quadratic formula:

x =  [ -(-8) +/- sqrt( 64 - 4 * 0.03 * 178)] / 0.06

= 8 +/- sqrt42.64 / 0.06

= 242  players.

a volley ball player servers the ball. The ball follows a path given by the equation y=-0.01x^2+0.5x+3 where x and y are measure
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

(a)

Distance from player should be 13.82 feet or 36.2 feet

(b)

The ball will go over the net

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

The ball follows a path given by the equation

y=-0.01x^2+0.5x+3

where

x and y are measured in feet and the origin is on the court directly below where the player hits the ball

(a)

net height is 8 ft

so, we can set y=8

and then we can solve for x

8=-0.01x^2+0.5x+3

8\cdot \:100=-0.01x^2\cdot \:100+0.5x\cdot \:100+3\cdot \:100

800=-x^2+50x+300

-x^2+50x-500=0

x^2-50x+500=0

we can use quadratic formula

x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

x=\frac{-50\pm \sqrt{50^2-4\left(-1\right)\left(-500\right)}}{2\left(-1\right)}

x=5\left(5-\sqrt{5}\right),\:x=5\left(5+\sqrt{5}\right)

x=13.82,x=36.2

So, distance from player should be 13.82 feet or 36.2 feet

(b)

we can plug x=30 and check whether y=8 ft

y=-0.01(30)^2+0.5(30)+3

y=9ft

we know that

height of net is 8 ft

so, the ball will go over the net

How to differenciate natural,whole,integers,rational,irrational numbers and real numbers sets from -12 to 49 and draw numbers li
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Natural Numbers :

These are numbers used for counting, they are the numbers on a number line. From -12 to 49, the natural numbers are 1, 2, 3, ..., 49.

Whole Numbers:

These are numbers that can be written without havin to write in fractions. They are 0, 1, 2, ..., 49.

Rational Numbers:

These are numbers that can be expressed as fractions.

Irrational numbers :

These are numbers that cannot be expressed as fractions.

Real Numbers:

These are numbers that can be used to measure quantities, they include negative, positive numbers and zero. From -12 to 49, all the numbers are real.

Prime Numbers:

These are numbers that are divisible only by one and themselves.

From 7 to 49, the numbers divisible by 7 are 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, and 49.

Only 7 is prime.

Jackson used the process of completing the square to solve the equation 2x2−12x=−6.
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

x=3-\sqrt{6},x=3+\sqrt{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given equation as

2x^2-12x=-6

Since, we have to solve it by using complete square

so, firstly we will complete square

and then we can solve for x

step-1:

Factor 2 from both sides

2(x^2-6x)=-3\times 2

step-2:

Simplify it

x^2-6x=-3

step-3:

Add both sides 3^2

x^2-6x+3^2=-3+3^2

now, we can complete square

(x-3)^2=6

step-4:

Take sqrt both sides

(x-3)=-\sqrt{6},(x-3)=\sqrt{6}

step-5:

Add both sides by 3

we get

x=3-\sqrt{6},x=3+\sqrt{6}
