Answer:

a. 1.5 inches wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the width of the frame is x the length of the picture + frame = 2x + 12 and the width is 2x + 9 , so we have the following equation:

The total area = (2x + 9)(2x + 12) = 180

4x^2 + 24x + 18x + 108 = 180

4x^2 + 42x - 72 = 0

2(2x^2 + 21x - 36) = 0

2 (2x - 3 )(x + 12) = 0

x = 1.5 , -12  (we ignore the negative root).

Find the marginal profit of C(x)=5x^2, R(x)=x^3+7x+10 and find all values of x for which the marginal profit is zero.
jonny [76]
Marginal profit, P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = x³ - 5x² + 7x + 10

x³ - 5x² + 7x + 10 = 0
If you solve it, you get x = -0.839 where P(x) is zero
