The publisher of a recently released nonfiction book expects that over the first 20 months after its release, the monthly profit

can be approximated with the model P(t) 240t - 40t t2 +20 where P is in thousands of dollars and t is in months from the time of release. a. Derive a model that gives the marginal profit of the book. P'(t) Preview b. Specify the expected marginal profit 5 months after release. Round to 2 decimal places thousands of dollars per month c. Specify the expected marginal profit 11 months after release. Round to 2 decimal places. thousands of dollars per month d. After which month is the monthly profit start to decrease steadily?

Answer:

(a)\frac{dP}{dt}=\frac{4800-1600t-240t^2}{(t^2+20)^2}

(b)P'(5)=-($4.54) Thousand

(c)P'(11)=-($2.10) Thousand

(d)The fifth Month

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the monthly profit model:

P(t)=\frac{240t-40t^2}{t^2+20}

(a)We want to derive a model that gives the Marginal Profit, P' of the book.

We differentiate

P(t)=\frac{240t-40t^2}{t^2+20} using quotient rule.

\frac{dP}{dt}=\frac{(t^2+20)(240-80t)-(240t-40t^2)(2t)}{(t^2+20)^2}

Simplifying

\frac{dP}{dt}=\frac{4800-1600t-240t^2}{(t^2+20)^2}

We have derived a model for the marginal profit.

(b) After 5 months, at t=5

Marginal Profit=P'(5)

\frac{dP}{dt}=\frac{4800-1600t-240t^2}{(t^2+20)^2}

P^{'}(5)=\frac{4800-1600(5)-240(5)^2}{(5^2+20)^2}

=-($4.54) Thousand of dollars

(c)Marginal Profit 11 Months after book release

P^{'}(11)=\frac{4800-1600(11)-240(11)^2}{(11^2+20)^2}

=-($2.10) Thousand of dollars

(d) Since the marginal profit at t=5 is negative, after the 5th Month, the profit starts to experience a steady decrease.

The least-square regression line has a slope of:

m=(nΣxy-ΣyΣx)/(nΣx²-ΣxΣx)

and a y-intercept of:

b=(Σy-mΣx)/n

In this case: n=7, Σxy=4899, Σy=391, Σx=85, Σx²=1153 so

m=(7(4899)-391*85)/(7(1153)-85*85))=1058/846

b=(391*846-85*1058)/(7*846)=34408/846

So the line of best fit is:

y=(1058x+34408)/846  and if we approximated this as your answers see to have done....

y=1.25x+40.67

Solve the triangle. Round your answers to the nearest tenth. A. m∠A=43, m∠B=55, a=16 B. m∠A=48, m∠B=50, a=23 C. m∠A=48, m∠B=50,
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

D. m∠A=43, m∠B=55, a=20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

∆ABC,

m<C = 82°

AB = c = 29

AC = b = 24

Required:

m<A, m<C, and a (BC)

SOLUTION:

Find m<B using the law of sines:

\frac{sin(B)}{b} = \frac{sin(C)}{c}

\frac{sin(B)}{24} = \frac{sin(82)}{29}

sin(B)*29 = sin(82)*24

\frac{sin(B)*29}{29} = \frac{sin(82)*24}{29}

sin(B) = \frac{sin(82)*24}{29}

sin(B) = 0.8195

B = sin^{-1}(0.8195)

B = 55.0

m<B = 55°

Find m<A:

m<A = 180 - (82 + 55) => sum of angles in a triangle.

= 180 - 137

m<A = 43°

Find a using the law of sines:

\frac{a}{sin(A)} = \frac{b}{sin(B)}

\frac{a}{sin(43)43} = \frac{24}{sin(55)}

Cross multiply

a*sin(55) = 25*sin(43)

a = \frac{25*sin(43)}{sin(53)}

a = 20 (approximated)
