Find the total cost of producing 5 widgets. Widget Wonders produces widgets. They have found that the cost, c(x), of making x widgets is a quadratic function in terms of x. The company also discovered that it costs $15.50 to produce 3 widgets, $23.50 to produce 7 widgets, and $56 to produce 12 widgets.
OK...so we have
a(7)^2 + b(7) + c = 23.50 → 49a + 7b + c = 23.50 (1)
a(3)^2 + b(3) + c = 15.50 → 9a + 3b + c = 15.50 subtracting the second equation from the first, we have
40a + 4b = 8 → 10a + b = 2 (2)
Also
a(12)^2 + b(12) + c = 56 → 144a + 12b + c = 56 and subtracting (1) from this gives us
95a + 5b = 32.50
And using(2) we have
95a + 5b = 32.50 (3)
10a + b = 2.00 multiplying the second equation by -5 and adding this to (3) ,we have
45a = 22.50 divide both sides by 45 and a = 1/2 and using (2) to find b, we have
10(1/2) + b = 2
5 + b = 2 b = -3
And we can use 9a + 3b + c = 15.50 to find "c"
9(1/2) + 3(-3) + c = 15.50
9/2 - 9 + c = 15.50
-4.5 + c = 15.50
c = 20
So our function is
c(x) = (1/2)x^2 - (3)x + 20
And the cost to produce 5 widgets is = $17.50
Answer: 0.03855
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :A population of skiers has a distribution of weights with mean 190 pounds and standard deviation 40 pounds.
Its maximum safe load is 10000 pounds.
Let X denotes the weight of 50 people.
As per given ,
Population mean weight of 50 people = 
Standard deviation of 50 people 
Then , the probability its maximum safe load will be exceeded =
![P(X>10000)=P(\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\dfrac{10000-9500}{282.84})\\\\=P(z>1.7671-8)\\\\=1-P(z\leq1.7678)\ \ \ \ [\because\ P(Z>z)=P(Z\leq z)]\\\\=1-0.96145\ \ \ [\text{ By p-value of table}]\\\\=0.03855](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28X%3E10000%29%3DP%28%5Cdfrac%7BX-%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Csigma%7D%3E%5Cdfrac%7B10000-9500%7D%7B282.84%7D%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%3DP%28z%3E1.7671-8%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D1-P%28z%5Cleq1.7678%29%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5B%5Cbecause%5C%20P%28Z%3Ez%29%3DP%28Z%5Cleq%20z%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D1-0.96145%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5B%5Ctext%7B%20By%20p-value%20of%20table%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D0.03855)
Thus , the probability its maximum safe load will be exceeded = 0.03855
<u>Answer</u>
3.5 hours.
<u>Explanation</u>
The first step is to calculate the constant of proportionality.
t ∝ 1/n
t = k/n Where t = time, K= constant and n = number of people
t = k/n
k =tn
= 5×7 = 35
The equation becomes;
t = 35/n
for n = 10,
t = 35/10
t = 3.5 hours.
