<h3>Answer: 47</h3>

=================================================

Work Shown:

Connect points A and B with a line segment. Through the HL (hypotenuse leg) congruence theorem, you can prove triangle ABC is congruent to triangle ABD. From there, using CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent) we know that BC = BD.

In short: tangents from an external point are the same length.

------

BC = BD

-2x+85 = 5x-48

85+48 = 5x+2x

133 = 7x

7x = 133

x = 133/7

x = 19

-----

Use this x value to find the length of BC

BC = -2x+85

BC = -2(19)+85

BC = -38+85

BC = 47

and let's check BD as well. It should also be 47 units long.

BD = 5x-48

BD = 5*19-48

BD = 95-48

BD = 47

This confirms our answer.

The cost per hour of running an assembly line in a
nlexa [21]

Answer:

the minimum production level is costing $800 (0.8×$1000) per hour for 2000 (2×1000) items produced per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

if there is no mistake in the problem description, I read the following function :

C(x) = y = 0.3x² - 1.2x + 2

I don't know if you learned this already, but to find the extreme values of a function you need to build the first derivative of the function y' and find its solutions for y'=0.

the first derivative of C(x) is

0.6x - 1.2 = y'

0.6x - 1.2 = 0

0.6x = 1.2

x = 2

C(2) = 0.3×2² - 1.2×2 + 2 = 0.3×4 - 2.4 + 2 = 1.2-2.4+2 = 0.8

so, the minimum production level is costing $800 (0.8×$1000) per hour for 2000 (2×1000) items produced per hour.
