Write an expression that equals 40 include the Exponent

If fixed cost of 20 article is 500 and variable cost for each article is 40. Find the total cost function? Also ,find the total

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Cost function = 40a + 500

Cost of 90 articles = $4,100

Step-by-step explanation:

The fixed cost is $500 and it will.not change regardless of production level.

The Variable cost is $40 and increases by every additional unit produced.

Assume the number of articles produced is a.

Cost function would be:

Total cost = Variable cost * Number of articles + Fixed cost

TC = 40a + 500

Using this, the cost of 90 articles is:

= 40 * 90 + 500

= $4,100

The students in Mr. Wilson's Physics class are making golf ball catapults. The

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Part a) About 48.6 feet

Part b) About 8.3 feet

Part c) The domain is $0 \leq x \leq 48.6\ ft$ and the range is $0 \leq y \leq 8.3\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y=-0.014x^{2} +0.68x$

This is a vertical parabola open downward (the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex represent a maximum

where

x is the ball's distance from the catapult in feet

y is the flight of the balls in feet

Part a) How far did the ball fly?

Find the x-intercepts or the roots of the quadratic equation

Remember that

The x-intercept is the value of x when the value of y is equal to zero

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$-0.014x^{2} +0.68x=0$

so

$a=-0.014\\b=0.68\\c=0$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-0.68(+/-)\sqrt{0.68^{2}-4(-0.014)(0)}} {2(-0.014)}$

$x=\frac{-0.68(+/-)0.68} {(-0.028)}$

$x=\frac{-0.68(+)0.68} {(-0.028)}=0$

$x=\frac{-0.68(-)0.68} {(-0.028)}=48.6\ ft$

therefore

The ball flew about 48.6 feet

Part b) How high above the ground did the ball fly?

Find the maximum (vertex)

$y=-0.014x^{2} +0.68x$

Find out the derivative and equate to zero

$0=-0.028x +0.68$

Solve for x

$0.028x=0.68$

$x=24.3$

Alternative method

To determine the x-coordinate of the vertex, find out the midpoint between the x-intercepts

$x=(0+48.6)/2=24.3\ ft$

To determine the y-coordinate of the vertex substitute the value of x in the quadratic equation and solve for y

$y=-0.014(24.3)^{2} +0.68(24.3)$

$y=8.3\ ft$

the vertex is the point (24.3,8.3)

therefore

The ball flew above the ground about 8.3 feet

Part c) What is a reasonable domain and range for this function?

we know that

A reasonable domain is the distance between the two x-intercepts

so

$0 \leq x \leq 48.6\ ft$

All real numbers greater than or equal to 0 feet and less than or equal to 48.6 feet

A reasonable range is all real numbers greater than or equal to zero and less than or equal to the y-coordinate of the vertex

so

we have the interval -----> [0,8.3]

$0 \leq y \leq 8.3\ ft$

All real numbers greater than or equal to 0 feet and less than or equal to 8.3 feet

John put away 36 of 48 shirts in his closet. Don has 84 shirts. If he put away the same percent, how many shirts did Don put in

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation:

John's percentage:

36 and 48 have a common factor of 12 so divide both of them by 12.

36/12= 3 and 48/12=4 therefore

so 36/48= 3/4 which is 75% but we don't need to focus on the percent.

Don's no. of shirts:

we know Don has 84 shirts so we say

3/4 of 84= no. of shirts that Don put in his closet

84/4=21 21x3=63

Don put 63 shirts in his closet.

Hope that helped! Anymore questions just ask! :)

A chocolate shop has 32 chocolates with orange filling , 10 chocolates with strawberry filling and 5 chocolates with coconut fil

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add all of the numbers above you will get 47 so

32+10+5=47

and of course there are 32 chocolates with orange filling

so the probability is 32/47

Solve the linear equation: x-y=7 0.5x+y=5

evablogger [386]

Add the equations.

x-y%2B0.5x%2By=7%2B5

1.5x=12

highlight%28x=8%29

Now use either equation to solve for y.

8-y=7

highlight%28y=1%29

x=8

y=1
