You were given the data as statistics so that you can predict the number of a certain type of fish through ratio and proportion. The main focus here is then number of bluegill fish. From the given statistics, the number is 87. The total number of fishes at that time was 52+61+87 = 200. So, assuming that this composition is uniform in the said lake. We can then use the ratio from the given statistics to know the proportion of bluegills to the total fishes. Hence, we equate the two ratios:

87/200 = x/800

where x is the number of bluegills among the 800 total fishes that is in proportion to the gathered statistics. Solving for x, we determine the answer to be

x = 348

Answer:

348

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the 3 different amount of fish. That is 200, this means that if you multiply that by four your get the amount of all the different fish. (87 x 4 = 348)

A bakery finds that the price they can sell cakes is given by the function p = 580 − 10x where x is the number of cakes sold per
dexar [7]

Answer:

The total revenue is TR=580x-10x^2.

The marginal revenue is MR=580-20x.

The fixed cost is $900.

The marginal cost function is MC=50x+300.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Total Revenue (TR) received from the sale of x goods at price p is given by

                                                         TR=p\cdot x

The Marginal Revenue (MR) is the derivative of total revenue with respect to demand and is given by

                                                       MR=\frac{d(TR)}{dx}

From the information given we know that the price they can sell cakes is given by the function p=580-10x, where x is the number of cakes sold per day.

So, the total revenue is

TR=(580-10x)\cdot x\\TR=580x-10x^2

And the marginal revenue is

MR=\frac{d}{dx}(580x-10x^2) \\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Sum/Difference\:Rule}:\quad \left(f\pm g\right)'=f\:'\pm g'\\\\MR=\frac{d}{dx}\left(580x\right)-\frac{d}{dx}\left(10x^2\right)\\\\MR=580-20x

The Fixed Cost (FC) is the amount of money you have to spend regardless of how many items you produce.

The Marginal Cost (MC) function is the derivative of the cost function and is given by

                                                   MC=\frac{d(TC)}{dx}

We know that the total cost function of the company is given by C=(30+5x)^2, which it is equal to

\mathrm{Apply\:Perfect\:Square\:Formula}:\quad \left(a+b\right)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\\a=30,\:\:b=5x\\\\\left(30+5x\right)^2=30^2+2\cdot \:30\cdot \:5x+\left(5x\right)^2=25x^2+300x+900\\\\C=25x^2+300x+900

From the total cost function and applying the definition of fixed cost, the fixed cost is $900.

And the marginal cost function is

MC=\frac{d}{\:dx}\left(25x^2+300x+900\right)\\\\MC=\frac{d}{dx}\left(25x^2\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(300x\right)+\frac{d}{dx}\left(900\right)\\\\MC=50x+300+0=50x+300
