Answer:

  (x, y) = (1, -1.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the first equation from the second to eliminate the x-variable.

  (3x +10y) -(3x -2y) = (-12) -(6)

  12y = -18

  y = -18/12 = -1.5

Substituting into the second equation, you get ...

  3x +10(-1.5) = -12

  3x -15 = -12 . . . . . . .simplify

  3x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . add 15

  x = 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

The values of x and y that satisfy both equations are (x, y) = (1, -1.5).

The equation for the cost in dollars of producing automobile tires is c = 0.000015x2 - 0.03x + 35, where x is the number of tire
statuscvo [17]
The cost function is
c = 0.000015x² - 0.03x + 35
where x = number of tires.

To find the value of x that minimizes cost, the derivative of c with respect to x should be zero. Therefore
0.000015*2x - 0.03 = 0
0.00003x = 0.03
x = 1000

Note:
The second derivative of c with respect to x is positive (= 0.00003), so the value for x will yield the minimum value.

The minimum cost is
Cmin = 0.000015*1000² - 0.03*1000 + 35
          = 20

Answer:
Number of tires = 1000
Minimum cost = 20

Joan makes a base salary of $275 per week and a commission of 4% of sales over $1000. If she sells $1250 of merchandise this wee
Lerok [7]

Joan makes $275/week.

In addition to $275, she also makes 4 percent on sales over $1000.

So, 1250 - 1000 = 250.

Then 250(0.04) = 10.

Let t = amount of her paycheck for the week.

t = $275 + $10

t = $285
