Answer:

a) $675000

b) $289000 profit,3300 set, $190 per set

c) 3225 set, $272687.5 profit, $192.5 per set

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Revenue R(x) = xp(x) = x(300 - x/30) = 300x - x²/30

The maximum revenue is at R'(x) =0

R'(x) = 300 - 2x/30 = 300 - x/15

But we need to compute R'(x) = 0:

300 - x/15 = 0

x/15 = 300

x = 4500

Also the second derivative of R(x) is given as:

R"(x) = -1/15 < 0 This means that the maximum revenue is at x = 4500. Hence:

R(4500) = 300 (4500) - (4500)²/30 = $675000  

B) Profit P(x) = R(x) - C(x) = 300x - x²/30 - (74000 + 80x) = -x²/30 + 300x - 80x - 74000

P(x) = -x²/30 + 220x - 74000

The maximum revenue is at P'(x) =0

P'(x) = - 2x/30 + 220= -x/15 + 220

But we need to compute P'(x) = 0:

-x/15 + 220 = 0

x/15 = 220

x = 3300

Also the second derivative of P(x) is given as:

P"(x) = -1/15 < 0 This means that the maximum profit is at x = 3300. Hence:

P(3300) =  -(3300)²/30 + 220(3300) - 74000 = $289000  

The price for each set is:

p(3300) = 300 -3300/30 = $190 per set

c) The new cost is:

C(x) = 74000 + 80x + 5x = 74000 + 85x

Profit P(x) = R(x) - C(x) = 300x - x²/30 - (74000 + 85x) = -x²/30 + 300x - 85x - 74000

P(x) = -x²/30 + 215x - 74000

The maximum revenue is at P'(x) =0

P'(x) = - 2x/30 + 215= -x/15 + 215

But we need to compute P'(x) = 0:

-x/15 + 215 = 0

x/15 = 215

x = 3225

Also the second derivative of P(x) is given as:

P"(x) = -1/15 < 0 This means that the maximum profit is at x = 3225. Hence:

P(3225) =  -(3225)²/30 + 215(3225) - 74000 = $272687.5

The money to be charge for each set is:

p(x) = 300 - 3225/30 = $192.5 per set

When taxed $5, the maximum profit is $272687.5

PLEASEEE HELP MEEEE<br><br>NO LINKSSS
Artemon [7]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{(2,\ 3);\ (-1,\ 6)}

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x^2-2x+3\to y=x^2-2x+3\\f(x)=-x+5\to y=-x+5\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=x^2-2x+3&(1)\\y=-x+5&(2)\end{array}\right

substitute (1) to (2):

x^2-2x+3=-x+5     add x to both sides

x^2-2x+x+3=-x+x+5

x^2-x+3=5        subtract 5 from both sides

x^2-x+3-5=5-5

x^2-x-2=0\\\\x^2+x-2x-2=0\\\\x(x+1)-2(x+1)=0\\\\(x+1)(x-2)=0\iff x+1=0\ \vee\ x-2=0\\\\\boxed{x=-1\ \vee\ x=2}

substitute the values of x to (2):

x=-1\\\\y=-(-1)+5=1+5=6\\\\\huge\boxed{(-1,\ 6)}\\\\x=2\\\\y=-2+5=3\\\\\huge\boxed{(2,\ 3)}

Complete Question

Carmen and Matt are conducting different chemistry experiments in school. In both experiments, each student starts with an initial amount of water in a flask. They combine two chemicals which react to produce more water. Carmen's experiment starts with 30 milliliters of water in a flask, and the water increases in volume by 8.5 milliliters per second. Matt's experiment starts with 10 milliliters of water and increases in volume by 28% each second. The graph represents the volume of water in the two flasks in relation to time. Which two conclusions can be made if f represents the volume of water in Carmen's flask and g represents the volume of water in Matt's flask? a) The volume of water in Carmen's flask is increasing at a slower rate than the volume of water in Matt's flask over the interval [0, 2].

b) The volume of water in Carmen's flask is increasing at a faster rate than the volume of water in Matt's flask over the interval [6, 8].

c) The volume of water in Carmen's flask will always be greater than the volume of water in Matt's flask.

d) The volume of water in Matt's flask will eventually be greater than the volume of water in Carmen's flask.

e) The volume of water in Carmen's flask is increasing at a slower rate than the volume of water in Matt's flask over the interval [4, 6].

Answer:

c) The volume of water in Carmen's flask will always be greater than the volume of water in Matt's flask.

e) The volume of water in Carmen's flask is increasing at a slower rate than the volume of water in Matt's flask over the interval [4, 6].

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the graph, the average rate of change is given as [0,2], [4,6], and [6,8].

From the graph and question, we can tell that Matt's experiment starts with 10 milliliters of water and increases in volume by 28% each second

Which would gives us:

28% of 10 milliliter of water = 2.8 millimeters per second.

For Carmen , his experiment starts with 30 milliliters of water in a flask, and the water increases in volume by 8.5 milliliters per second,

Because, Carmen starts with 30 milliliters of water in his flask, the volume of water in Carmen's flask will always be greater than the volume of water in Matt's flask.

Secondly, comparing the quantity as which the volume of the flask increases per second, at the interval of [4, 6], the volume of water in Carmen's flask is increasing at a slower rate than the volume of water in Matt's flask over the interval
