Answer:
t-shirts: 2790
profit: $12209
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function:
p(x) = -x³ + 4x² + x
we want to maximize it.
The following criteria must be satisfied at the maximum:
dp/dx = 0
d²p/dx² < 0
dp/dx = -3x² + 8x + 1 = 0
Using quadratic formula:







d²p/dx² = -6x + 8
d²p/dx² at x = -0.12: -6(-0.12) + 8 = 8.72 > 0
d²p/dx² at x = 2.79: -6(2.79) + 8 = -8.74 < 0
Then, he should prints 2.79 thousands, that is, 2790 t-shirts to make maximum profits.
Replacing into profit equation:
p(x) = -(2.79)³ + 4(2.79)² + 2.79 = 12.209
that is, $12209
Answer:
Equation: 7x - 23 = 25 + x
Solution: x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 23 = 25 + x
1. Subtract 25 from both sides:
7x - 23 - 25 = 25 - 25 + x
7x - 48 = x
2. Subtract 7x from both sides to get x on one side:
7x - 7x - 48 = x - 7x
- 48 = -6x
3. Divide both sides by -6 to get x by itself:
8 = x
8 is the solution

Answer: C) 2.47 cm</h3>
=====================================================
Explanation:
We have 81 cm^3 of clay. Divide this among the 20 students and each gets 81/20 = 4.05 cm^3 of clay
--------------
The volume of a cone is
V = (1/3)*pi*r^2*h
Solving for h gets us
3V = pi*r^2*h
(3V)/(pi*r^2) = h
h = (3V)/(pi*r^2)
--------------
The diameter is 2.5 cm which cuts in half to 1.25 cm, so this is the radius.
We'll plug this radius in, along with V = 4.05 and pi = 3.14
h = (3V)/(pi*r^2)
h = (3*4.05)/(3.14*(1.25)^2)
h = 2.4764
This value is approximate. Rounding down to the nearest hundredth gets us 2.47
We round down because rounding up to 2.48 will lead to a volume larger than 4.05
