1/ 816

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Given

Total number of students in the school = 18

Number of students randomly selected = 3

Step 2 :

Number of ways in which 3 students can be selected out of 18 students is

C(18,3) = 18! /(3!(*18-3)!) = 18*17*16/3*2*1 = 816

Number of ways in which 3 students are selected and they are the youngest = 1

Hence the probability of selecting 3 youngest students from the available students is 1/ C(18,3) = 1/ 816

3. g(x) = (x+2)/ |x+2| the denominator cannot be 0

|x+2| cannot be 0

x cannot equal -2

Domain all real numbers but -2

g(-1) = (-1+2)/ |-1+2| = 1/|1| = 1

4. h(x) = (x-4)/(x^2+5x-36)

factor the denominator

h(x) = (x-4)/(x+9) (x-4) the denominator cannot be zero do not cancel, this is a hole

x+9 cannot equal zero so x cannot equal -9

x-4 cannot equal 0 so x cannot equal 4

Domain all real numbers but -9 and 4

h(-1) = (-1-4)/((-1)^2+5(-1)-36) = -5/(1-5-36) = -5/-40 = 1/8

The total cost (in dollars) of producing x food processors is C(x) = 2500 + 50x -0.28.

Darya [45]

Answer:

The exact cost of producing the 21st food processor is $38.52.

The marginal cost to approximate the cost of producing the 21st food processor is $38.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided function.

$C(x) = 2500 + 50x -0.28x^2$

(A) Find the exact cost of producing the 21st food processor

The exact cost producing 21st food processor is C(21)-C(20)

Substitute x=21 in above function.

$C(x) = 2500 + 50(21) -0.28(21)^2$

$C(x) = 2500 +1050 -123.48$

$C(x) = 3426.52$

Substitute x=20 in above function.

$C(x) = 2500 + 50(20) -0.28(20)^2$

$C(x) = 2500 +1000-112$

$C(x) = 3388$

The exact cost producing is:

$C(21)-C(20)=3426.52-3388=38.52$

Hence, the exact cost of producing the 21st food processor is $38.52.

Part (B) Use the marginal cost to approximate the cost of producing the 21st food processor,

To find the marginal cost first differentiate the function with respect to x.

$C(x) = 2500 + 50x -0.28x^2$

$C'(x) =50-0.56x$

Now substitute x=21 in above function.

$C'(x) =50-0.56(21)$

$C'(x) =50-11.76$

$C'(x) =38.24$

The marginal cost to approximate the cost of producing the 21st food processor is $38.24
