Answer:

The price will decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that farmers grew an unexpectedly large number of tomatoes this year.

When the quantity of a commodity increases, its price decreases. The price of a commodity is inversely proportional to its quantity.

The price is mostly affected by the quantity available in the market.

When the tomatoes are produced in very large numbers, the price will go down as almost everyone will be having it.

So, its price will decrease so as to maintain the sales.

A store owner paid 15 dollars for a book. She marked up the price of the book by 40 percent to determine its selling price.
SpyIntel [72]
Part a: 21 dollars because you multiply .40 with 5 and get 6. you add the 6 to the 15 and get 21.
part b: 30.21 because you multiply 38 by .25 and get the answer for that and then subtract that number from 38. then you multiply 0.06 by 38 and when u get that number, add that to the discounted price.

Find the dimensions of the closed rectangular box with maximum volume that can be inscribed in the unit sphere.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rectangle have (x,y,z) as vertex in positive octant.  The rectangular box has to be necessarily symmetrical about all the three axes.

Then the sides of the box would be

2x,2y,2z

Volume = 8xyz

Maximize volume subject to

x^2+y^2+z^2 =1

i.e. g(x,y,z) = x^2+y^2+z^2 -1=0

Use Lagrangian multipliers , we have

∇f(x,y,z)=λ∇g(x,y,z)at the maximum

∇f(x,y,z)=λ∇g(x,y,z) =(8yz,8xz,8xy)\\∇g(x,y,z)=(2x,2y,2z)

8yz=2λx8xz=2λy8xy=2λz

Dividing we get

\frac{y}{x} =\frac{x}{y} \\x^2=y^2

Similarly y^2=z^2

Thus we get 3x^2 =1\\x = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }

Hence dimensions are

(2x,2y,2z)

So dimensions are

\frac{2}{\sqrt{3} } ,\frac{2}{\sqrt{3} } ,\frac{2}{\sqrt{3} } )
