You have two choices.
The minimum possible cost to operate your bat factory for a day is $390,
and there are two quantities of bats that both cost that much.
One possibility:
Produce no bats at all per day. Zero. Nada. None.
Cost = 0.06(0)² - 7.2(0) + 390 = $390 per day.
The other choice:
Produce 120 bats per day.
Cost = 0.06(120²) - 7.2(120) + 390
= 0.06(14,400) - 7.2(120) + 390
= 864 - 864 + 390
= $390 per day.
If you produce any other number of bats in a day ... more than zero
but not 120 ... then it will cost you more than $390 to operate the factory
that day.
Answer:
a. $9,425.10
b. $3,707.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
11.42 dollars
Step-by-step explanation: since you are adding a percentage turn 20% into a decimal. if you do this you will get .2. Next, multiple .2 by 9.52 and you will get 20% of 9.52. Now add this value to 9.52 and you will get 11.42 dollars.
Answer:
The weight of the block of ice after 1 day is of 4.81 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation for exponential decay:
The equation that models an amount after t hours, subject to exponential decay, is given by:
In which A(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
A 10-pound block of ice melts at a rate of 3% per hour.
This means that 
So
Find the weight of the block of ice after 1 day.
One day has 24 hours, so this is A(24).
The weight of the block of ice after 1 day is of 4.81 pounds.
