The total cost (in dollars) for a company to manufacture and sell x items per week is C=40x+180, whereas the revenue brought in
crimeas [40]

Answer:

The company needs to sell either 30 or 40 items.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the cost for selling <em>x</em> items given by the function:

C(x)=40x+180

And the revenue for selling <em>x</em> items is given by:

R(x)=68x-0.4x^2

The profit function is the cost function subtracted from the revenue function:

P(x)=R(x)-C(x)

Substitute and simplify:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned} P(x)&=(68x-0.4x^2)-(40x+180)\\&=68x-0.4x^2-40x-180\\&=-0.4x^2+28x-180\end{aligned}

To find how many items must be sold in order to obtain a weekly profit of $300, we can let <em>P</em> equal 300 and solve for <em>x</em>. So:

300=-0.4x^2+28x-180

Solve for <em>x</em>. Subtract 300 from both sides:

-0.4x^2+28x-480=0

We can divide both sides by -0.4:

x^2-70x+1200=0

Factor:

(x-40)(x-30)=0

Zero Product Property:

x-40=0\text{ or } x-30=0

Solve for each case:

x=40\text{ or } x=30

So, in order to obtain a weekly profit of $300, the company need to sell either 30 <em>or</em> 40 items.

The average of eight numbers is 56. When one of the numbers was left out, the mean decreased to 54. What number was left out?
lozanna [386]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the average of 8 numbers = 56.

Then the Total sum of 8 numbers = 56 * 8

                                                        = 448.

Sum of 1st three numbers = 49 + 57 + 72

                                           = 178.

So, the total = 448 - 178

                    = 270.

Average of the other 5 numbers = 270/5

                                                      = 54.

Verification:

178 + 270 = 448/8

                = 56.

2+x=15-7/8x how do you solve this?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:2+x=15-7/8x

We move all terms to the left:

2+x-(15-7/8x)=0

Domain of the equation: 8x)!=0

x!=0/1

x!=0

x∈R

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x-(-7/8x+15)+2=0

We get rid of parentheses

x+7/8x-15+2=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator

x*8x-15*8x+2*8x+7=0

Wy multiply elements

8x^2-120x+16x+7=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

8x^2-104x+7=0

a = 8; b = -104; c = +7;

Δ = b2-4ac

Δ = -1042-4·8·7

Δ = 10592

The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions

We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:

x1=−b−Δ√2ax2=−b+Δ√2a

The end solution:

Δ−−√=10592−−−−−√=16∗662−−−−−−−√=16−−√∗662−−−√=4662−−−√

x1=−b−Δ√2a=−(−104)−4662√2∗8=104−4662√16

x2=−b+Δ√2a=−(−104)+4662√2∗8=104+4662√16
