The formulas below are the cost and revenue functions for a company that manufactures and sells small radios. a. Use the formula

s shown to write the company's profit function, P, from producing and selling x radios. b. Find the company's profit if 21,000 radios are produced and sold C(x) 224,000+32x and R(x) 46x a. The company's profit function is P(x)-(Simplify your answer.)

Answer:

a) P(x)=14x-224,000 and b) P(21,000)=70,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) Use the formulas shown to write the company's profit function, P, from producing and selling x radios.

The company's profit is given by its revenue minus the production cost. Then, the profit function P(x) will be given by

$P(x)=R(x)-C(x)=46x-(224,000+32x)=14x-224,000.$

b.) Find the company's profit if 21,000 radios are produced and sold

To obtain the company's profit we just need to substitute the value given (x=21,000) in the formula 1). Therefore,

$P(21,000)=R(21,000)-C(21,000)=14(21,000)-224,000=70,000$ .

56. How many tangent lines to the curve <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3Dx%20%2F%28x%2B1%29" id="TexFormula1" title="y=x /(

PIT_PIT [208]

There are 2 tangent lines that pass through the point

$y=\frac{1}{(-1+\sqrt{3)^2} } (x-1)+2$

and

$y=\frac{1}{(-1-\sqrt{3)^2} } (x-1)+2$

Explanation:

Given:

$y=\frac{x}{x+1}$

The point-slope form of the equation of a line tells us that the form of the tangent lines must be:

$y=m(x-1)+2$ $[1]$

For the lines to be tangent to the curve, we must substitute the first derivative of the curve for $m$ :

$\frac{dy}{dx} =\frac{d(x)}{dx}(x+1)-x^\frac{d(x+1)}{dx} \\ \\$

$\frac{dy}{dx} =\frac{x+1-x}{(x+1)^2}$

$\frac{dy}{dx}= \frac{1}{(x+1)^2}$

$m=\frac{1}{(x+1)^2}$ $[2]$

Substitute equation [2] into equation [1]:

$y=\frac{x-1}{(x+1)^2}+2$ $[1.1]$

Because the line must touch the curve, we may substitute $y=\frac{x}{x+1}:$

$\frac{x}{x+1}=\frac{x-1}{(x+1)^2}+2$

Solve for x:

$x(x+1)=(x-1)+2(x+1)^2$

$x^2+x=x-1+2x^2+4x+2$

$x^2+4x+1$

$x\frac{-4±\sqrt{4^2-4(1)(1)} }{2(1)}$

$x=-2$ ± $\sqrt{3}$

$x=-2$ ± $\sqrt{3}$ <em> </em> $and$ $x=-2-\sqrt{3}$

There are 2 tangent lines.

$y=\frac{1}{(-1+\sqrt{3)^2} } (x-1)+2$

and

$y=\frac{1}{(-1-\sqrt{3)^2} } (x-1)+2$

If you pay $ 34.02 for a jacket that includes a 5% sales tax, what is the price of the jacket before the sales tax?

Jobisdone [24]

105% =$34.02
100% (cost without sales tax) = 34.02/1.05 =$32.40
