This is what I found

Step-by-step explanation: If you look at the figure, the angle marked red is equal to 70° because vertical angles are equal. So, that also means that the opposite angle 2 is also 70°. So, the first equation is:

70 = 5x + y

Next, the green angle as marked is equal to

Green angle = 180 - 70 = 110

Being vertical angles, angle 1 is then equal to 110°. So,the second equation is

110 = 5x + 3y

Subtract the two equations:

5x + y = 70

- 5x + 3y = 110

________________

-3y = -40

y = -40/-3 = 13.33°

Substituting y to either one of the equations,

5x + 13.33 = 70

Solving for x,

x = 11.33°

Given that OA = 2x + 9y, OB = 4x + 8y and CD = 4x - 2y, explain the geometrical relationships between the straight lines AB and

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The geometrical relationships between the straight lines AB and CD is that they have the same slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$OA = 2x + 9y$

$OB = 4x + 8y$

$CD = 4x - 2y$

Required

The relationship between AB, CD

Since AB is a straight line and O is the origin, then:

$AB = (c - a)x + (d - b)y$

Where:

$OA = ax + by$ ====> $OA = 2x + 9y$

$OB = cx + dy$ ====> $OB = 4x + 8y$

This implies that:

$a =2$ $b = 9$ $c = 4$ $d = 8$

So:

$AB = (c - a)x + (d - b)y$

$AB = (4 - 2)x + (8 - 9)y$

$AB = 2x -y$

So, we have:

$AB = 2x -y$

$CD = 4x - 2y$

Calculate the slope (m) of $AB\ and\ CD$

$m = \frac{Coefficient\ of\ y}{Coefficient\ of\ y}$

For AB

$m_1 = \frac{-1}{2}$

$m_1 = -\frac{1}{2}$

For CD

$m_2 = \frac{-2}{4}$

$m_2 = \frac{-1}{2}$

$m_2 = -\frac{1}{2}$

By comparison:

$m_1 = m_2 = -\frac{1}{2}$

This implies that both lines have the same slope

An aircraft factory manufactures airplane engines. The unit cost (the cost in dollars to make each airplane engine) depends on t

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

Minimum unit cost = 5,858

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function : C(x)=x^2−520x+73458

To find the minimum unit cost :

Take the derivative of C(x) with respect to x

dC/dx = 2x - 520

Set = 0

2x - 520

2x = 520

x = 260

To minimize unit cost, 260 engines must be produced

Hence, minimum unit cost will be :

C(x)=x^2−520x+73458

Put x = 260

C(260) = 260^2−520(260) + 73458

= 5,858
