Cube A has a volume of 125 cubic inches. The edge lengths of cube B measure 4.8 inches. Which cube is larger and why?

Answer: Cube A is larger. This is because volume is found by multiplying length × width × height. The length, width, and height of a cube are ALWAYS equal. Therefore if cube B has a length of 4.8 inches it also has a height of 4.8 inches and a width of 4.8 inches. To find its volume multiply 4.8×4.8×4.8 this will give you 110.592 cubic inches. This means cube A is larger.

QUESTION 3 [10 MARKS] A bakery finds that the price they can sell cakes is given by the function p = 580 − 10x where x is the nu

Harman [31]

Answer:

(a)Revenue function, $R(x)=580x-x^2$

Marginal Revenue function, R'(x)=580-2x

(b)Fixed cost =900 .

Marginal Cost Function=300+50x

(c)Profit, $P(x)=-35x^2+280x-900$

(d)x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part A </u>

Price Function $= 580 - 10x$

The revenue function

$R(x)=x\cdot (580-10x)\\R(x)=580x-x^2$

The marginal revenue function

$\dfrac{dR}{dx}= \dfrac{d}{dx}(R(x))=\dfrac{d}{dx}(580x-x^2)=580-2x\\R'(x)=580-2x$

<u>Part B </u>

<u>(Fixed Cost)</u>

The total cost function of the company is given by $c=(30+5x)^2$

We expand the expression

$(30+5x)^2=(30+5x)(30+5x)=900+300x+25x^2$

Therefore, the fixed cost is 900 .

<u> Marginal Cost Function</u>

If $c=900+300x+25x^2$

Marginal Cost Function, $\frac{dc}{dx}= (900+300x+25x^2)'=300+50x$

<u>Part C </u>

<u>Profit Function </u>

Profit=Revenue -Total cost

$580x-10x^2-(900+300x+25x^2)\\580x-10x^2-900-300x-25x^2\\$Profit,P(x)=-35x^2+280x-900$

<u> Part D </u>

To maximize profit, we find the derivative of the profit function, equate it to zero and solve for x.

$P(x)=-35x^2+280x-900\\P'(x)=-70x+280\\-70x+280=0\\-70x=-280\\$Divide both sides by -70\\x=4$

The number of cakes that maximizes profit is 4.

What is the solution to the linear equation? 2/5 + p = 4/5 + 3/5p

masha68 [24]

Answer:

p=1

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 + p = 4/5 + 3/5p

Multiply each side by 5 to clear the fractions

5(2/5 + p) = 5(4/5 + 3/5p)

2 +5p = 4 + 3p

Subtract 3p from each side

2+5p-3p = 4+3p-3p

2+2p = 4

Subtract 2 from each side

2+2p -2 = 4-2

2p =2

Divide by 2

2p/2 = 2/2

p=1
