Answer:

production cost f(x), in dollars, for x number of units produced by company 1:

f(x) = 0.05x^2 − 7x + 300

2) Table that represents the production cost g(x), in dollars, for x number of units produced by company 2:

x        g(x)

0.6     899.58

0.8     899.52

1        899.50

1.2     899.52

1.4     899.58

3) Comparison: do a table for f(x) with the same x-values of the table for g(x).

x            f(x) = 0.05x^2 − 7x + 300    g(x)

0.6         295.818                               899.58

0.8         294.432                               899.52

1            293.05                                 899.50

1.2         291.672                               899.52

1.4          290.298                              899.58

As you can see the values of f(x) are consistently lower than the values of g(x) for the same x-values.

The minimum production cost for company 2 is around 899.50 at x = 1, while the minimum production cost of company 1 is defintely lower (lower than 292.298 for sure, in fact if you find the vertex it is 55).

Answer: Based on the given information, the minimum production cost for company 2 is greater.

Answer:

C. 9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

4^2 + 8.6^2 = c^2

16 + 73.96 = c^2

c^2 = 89.96

c = 9.4847....

PLEASE HELP I’M SO CONFUSED
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

a. $45 an hour

b. 5.25 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The plumber charges $75 per job, so it is irrelevant to the number of hours they work. 45(h) is $45 multiplied by the number of hours they work.

b.

First, plug the numbers into the equation, the cost being C(h):

311.25 = 45(h) + 75

Next, subtract $75 as it is a set price that is always payed:

236.25 = 45(h)

Then, divide both sides by 45 to find how many hours were worked:

h = 5.25

Hours = $5.25
