adell [148]

Answer:

The price per wind chime that will maximize revenue = $ 315

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - A gift shop sells 160 wind chimes per month at $150 each. the owners estimate that for each $15 increase in price, they will sell 5 fewer wind chimes per month.

To find - Find the price per wind chime that will maximize revenue.

Proof -

Given that,

Total Wind chimes selling = 160

Price of each Wind chime = $150

Now,

Given that, for each $15 increase in price, they will sell 5 fewer wind chimes per month.

So,

Let the price = 150 + 15x

So,

Number of wind Chimes sold per month = 160 - 5x

So,

Total Revenue, R = (150 + 15x)(160 - 5x)

= 24000 - 750x + 2400x - 75x²

= 24000 + 1650x - 75x²

⇒R(x) = 24000 + 1650x - 75x²

Differentiate R with respect to x , we get

R'(x) = 1650 - 150x

Now,

For Maximize Revenue, Put R'(x) = 0

⇒1650 - 150x = 0

⇒150x = 1650

⇒x = 1650/150

⇒x = 11

∴ we get

Price per Wind chime = $ 150 + 15(11)

= $ 150 + 165

= $ 315

So,

The price per wind chime that will maximize revenue = $ 315

An account grows at an annual interest rate of r⁡ ⁣, so it grows by a factor of x=1+r⁡ ⁣⁣ ⁡ each year. The function A(x)=800x

Paladinen [302]

Given:

Annual interest rate = r⁡%

Growth factor : x = 1 + r⁡

The below function gives the amount in the account after 4 years when the growth factor is x⁡ ⁣⁣.

$A(x)=800x^4+350x^3+500x^2+600x$

To find:

The total amount in the account if the interest rate for the account is 3% each year and initial amount.

Solution:

Rate of interest = 3% = 0.03

Growth factor : x = 1 + ⁡0.03 = 1.03

We have,

$A(x)=800x^4+350x^3+500x^2+600x$

Substitute x=1.03 in the given function, to find the total amount in the account if the interest rate for the account is 3% each year.

$A(1.03)=800(1.03)^4+350(1.03)^3+500(1.03)^2+600(1.03)$

$A(1.03)=800(1.12550881)+350(1.092727)+500(1.0609
)+618$

$A(1.03)=900.407048+382.45445+530.45+618$

$A(1.03)=2431.311498
$

$A(1.03)\approx 2431.31
$

Therefore, the total amount in the account is 2431.31 if the interest rate for the account is 3% each year.

For initial amount the rate of interest is 0.

Growth factor : x = 1 + ⁡0 = 1

Substitute x=0 in the given function to find the initial amount.

$A(1)=800(1)^4+350(1)^3+500(1)^2+600(1)$

$A(1)=800+350+500+600$

$A(1)=2250$

Therefore, 2250 was put into the account at the beginning.

Cows and horses cost $250 each and sheep and goats each cost $200 at the county fair. Chickens sell for $50. How much could McDo

IgorC [24]

Answer:

the total amount of animals in McDonald's farm is missing, so I looked for a similar question and found the attached image:

McDonald can earn:

15 cows x $250 = $3,750

2 horses x $250 = $500

20 sheep x $200 = $4,000

25 goats x $200 = $5,000

17 chickens x $50 = $850

total = $14,100

Find the solution of the following equation whose argument is strictly between 270^\circ270 ∘ 270, degree and 360^\circ360 ∘ 360

$\rightarrow z^4=-625\\\\\rightarrow z=(-625+0i)^{\frac{1}{4}}\\\\\rightarrow x+iy=(-625+0i)^{\frac{1}{4}}\\\\ x=r \cos A\\\\y=r \sin A\\\\r \cos A=-625\\\\ r \sin A=0\\\\x^2+y^2=625^{2}\\\\r^2=625^{2}\\\\|r|=625\\\\ \tan A=\frac{0}{-625}\\\\ \tan A=0\\\\ A=\pi\\\\\rightarrow z= [625(\cos (2k \pi+pi) +i \sin (2k\pi+ \pi)]^{\frac{1}{4}}\\\\k=0,1,2,3,4,....\\\\\rightarrow z=(625)^{\frac{1}{4}}[\cos \frac{(2k \pi+pi)}{4} +i \sin \frac{(2k\pi+ \pi)}{4}]$

$\rightarrow z_{0}=(625)^{\frac{1}{4}}[\cos \frac{pi}{4} +i \sin \frac{\pi)}{4}]\\\\\rightarrow z_{1}=(625)^{\frac{1}{4}}[\cos \frac{3\pi}{4} +i \sin \frac{3\pi}{4}]\\\\ \rightarrow z_{2}=(625)^{\frac{1}{4}}[\cos \frac{5\pi}{4} +i \sin \frac{5\pi}{4}]\\\\ \rightarrow z_{3}=(625)^{\frac{1}{4}}[\cos \frac{7\pi}{4} +i \sin \frac{7\pi}{4}]$

Argument of Complex number

Z=x+iy , is given by

If, x>0, y>0, Angle lies in first Quadrant.

If, x<0, y>0, Angle lies in Second Quadrant.

If, x<0, y<0, Angle lies in third Quadrant.

If, x>0, y<0, Angle lies in fourth Quadrant.

We have to find those roots among four roots whose argument is between 270° and 360°.So, that root is

$\rightarrow z_{2}=(625)^{\frac{1}{4}}[\cos \frac{5\pi}{4} +i \sin \frac{5\pi}{4}]$
