<h3>Given</h3>

c(n)=30+5n\\a(n)=\dfrac{c(n)}{n}

<h3>Find</h3>

\dfrac{d}{dn}(a(n))\quad\text{at n=10}

<h3>Solution</h3>

\dfrac{d}{dn}(a(n))=\dfrac{d}{dn}\left(\dfrac{30+5n}{n}\right)=\dfrac{d}{dn}\left(30n^{-1}+5\right)\\\\=-30n^{-2}\\\\=-30\cdot 10^{-2}\qquad\text{at n=10}\\\\=-0.30

The derivative of the average cost function at n=10 is -0.30.

If y is 2.5 when x is 5 and i varies directly with x, find y when x is 14 ?
Anestetic [448]

ANSWER

y = 7

EXPLANATION

If y varies directly with x, we write the mathematical statement;

y \propto \: x

When we introduce the constant of proportionality k, then we write the equation,

y = kx

If y is 2.5 when x is 5,then we have;

2.5 = 5k

k =  \frac{2.5}{5}

k = 0.5

The equation of variation then becomes;

y = 0.5x

when x=14,

y = 0.5(14)

y = 7
