A textbook company keeps track of its daily cost for printing whole textbooks to different schools, but can only print up to 500

books a day. The daily cost (C) to print x number of textbooks is given by C(x) = 3.50x + 1200.
A.Using the function, determine one possible daily cost by evaluating the function for any input of your choice.
B.For what value of x does C(x) = 1900?
C.Interpret the statement C(20) = 1270.
D.Interpret the statement C(w) = p.
E.Explain whether C(40.5) = 1341.75 is correct and possible given the context of this problem.

Part A: Chose some value for x, that means any amount of books to print for example 100 books, so x=100
Replace x=100 in C(x) and solve:
C(100)=3.5*100+1200=1550
Part B: Replace C(x) by 1900 and solve for x from the given equation:
1900=3.5x+1200
3.5x=1900-1200
x=700/3.5= 200
Part C: the statement C(20)=1270 means that 1270 is the cost for printing 20 books.
Part E: C(40.5)=1341.75 I think this statement is incorrect given the context because x means number of books to print so this value must be an integer number.

60 = a * (-30)^2
a = 1/15
So y = (1/15)x^2


abc)
The derivative of this function is 2x/15. This is the slope of a tangent at that point.
If Linda lets go at some point along the parabola with coordinates (t, t^2 / 15), then she will travel along a line that was TANGENT to the parabola at that point.
Since that line has slope 2t/15, we can determine equation of line using point-slope formula:
y = m(x-x0) + y0
y = 2t/15 * (x - t) + (1/15)t^2
Plug in the x-coordinate "t" that was given for any point.


d)
We are looking for some x-coordinate "t" of a point on the parabola that holds the tangent line that passes through the dock at point (30, 30).
So, use our equation for a general tangent picked at point (t, t^2 / 15):
y = 2t/15 * (x - t) + (1/15)t^2
And plug in the condition that it must satisfy x=30, y=30.
30 = 2t/15 * (30 - t) + (1/15)t^2
t = 30 ± 2√15 = 8.79 or 51.21
The larger solution does in fact work for a tangent that passes through the dock, but it's not important for us because she would have to travel in reverse to get to the dock from that point.
So the only solution is she needs to let go x = 8.79 m east and y = 5.15 m north of the vertex.

The value of the surface area of the cylinder is equal to the value of the volume of the cylinder. Find the value of x.
zlopas [31]

Answer:

x = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of cylinder = 2πr(h + r)

Volume of cylinder = πr²h

Given that S.A = Volume of the cylinder, therefore, we have:

2πr(h + r) = πr²h

Radius (r) is given as 2.5 cm

height (h) = x cm

Input the values and solve for x

2πr(h + r) = πr²h

2πr(h + r) = πr(rh)

2(h + r) = rh (πr cancels πr)

2(x + 2.5) = 2.5*x

2x + 5 = 2.5x

Subtract 2x from both sides

2x + 5 - 2x = 2.5x - 2x

5 = 0.5x

Divide both sides by 0.5

\frac{5}{0.5} = \frac{0.5x}{0.5}

2.5 = x

x = 2.5
