Answer:

30units,2900

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Country Motorbikes Incorporated finds that it costs $400 to produce each motorbike, and that fixed costs are $1600 per day.

The price function is p(x) = 700 − 5x, where p is the price (in dollars) at which exactly x motorbikes will be sold.

If x units are produced and sold we have

Costs for x units = variable costs *x +Fixed costs $= 400x+1600$

Sales revenue = no of units sold * price = $x(700-5x) = 700x-5x^2$

Profit funciton = P(x) = Sales revenue - Total cost

= $700x-5x^2-400x-1600\\=300x-5x^2-1600$

To get maximum profit we use derivative test I derivative =0 and II derivative =negative

$P'(x) = 300-10x\\p"(x) = -10$

Producing 30 units will maximize the profit.

Max profit

=P(30) = 2900

Cynthia Besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 24 ft wide and 33 ft long. She

<h3>Answer: 16 ft by 25 ft</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below.

The outer dimensions 24 ft and 33 ft shrink down to 24-2x ft and 33-2x ft respectively. This subtraction of 2x is due to subtracting two copies of x per side.

The carpet has area of (24-2x)(33-2x)

Cynthia can afford to buy 400 sq ft of carpet

So we set 400 equal to that previous expression and solve for x

(24-2x)(33-2x) = 400

24(33-2x) - 2x(33-2x) = 400

792-48x - 66x + 4x^2 = 400

4x^2 - 114x + 792 = 400

4x^2 - 114x + 792-400 = 0

4x^2 - 114x + 392 = 0

From here, use the quadratic formula to isolate x.

Plug in a = 4, b = -114, c = 392

$x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(-114)\pm\sqrt{(-114)^2-4(4)(392)}}{2(4)}\\\\x = \frac{114\pm\sqrt{6724}}{8}\\\\x = \frac{114\pm82}{8}\\\\x = \frac{114+82}{8} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{114-82}{8}\\\\x = \frac{196}{8} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{32}{8}\\\\x = 24.5 \ \text{ or } \ x = 4\\\\$

The two possible solutions are x = 24.5 and x = 4

But if x = 24.5, then 24 - 2x = 24 - 2*24.5 = -25 which isn't possible. We cannot have a negative width or negative length for the carpet.

Luckily x = 4 does work since

24 - 2x = 24 - 2*4 = 16

33 - 2x = 33 - 2*4 = 25

Both results are positive.

Therefore, the carpet has dimensions of <u>16 ft by 25 ft</u>

Check: 16*25 = 400, so the answer is confirmed

Which expression is equivalent to...? Screenshots attached. Please help! Thank you.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

$4x^{3} y^{2} (\sqrt[3]{4 x y})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Another complex expression, let's simplify it step by step...

We'll start by re-writing 256 as 4^4

$\sqrt[3]{256 x^{10} y^{7} } = \sqrt[3]{4^{4} x^{10} y^{7} }$

Then we'll extract the 4 from the cubic root. We will then subtract 3 from the exponent (4) to get to a simple 4 inside, and a 4 outside.

$\sqrt[3]{4^{4} x^{10} y^{7} } = 4 \sqrt[3]{4 x^{10} y^{7} }$

Now, we have x^10, so if we divide the exponent by the root factor, we get 10/3 = 3 1/3, which means we will extract x^9 that will become x^3 outside and x will remain inside.

$4 \sqrt[3]{4 x^{10} y^{7} } = 4x^{3} \sqrt[3]{4 x y^{7} }$

For the y's we have y^7 inside the cubic root, that means the true exponent is y^(7/3)... so we can extract y^2 and 1 y will remain inside.

$4x^{3} \sqrt[3]{4 x y^{7} } = 4x^{3} y^{2} \sqrt[3]{4 x y}$

The answer is then:

$4x^{3} y^{2} \sqrt[3]{4 x y} = 4x^{3} y^{2} (\sqrt[3]{4 x y})$
