Answer:

a) $\bar{C}(x)=\dfrac{100}{x}+25-120\dfrac{lnx}{x}$

b) $\bar{C}(x)=5.81$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

C = 100 + 25 x - 120 ln x ,x ≥ 1.

The average cost function given as

$\bar{C}(x)=\dfrac{C(x)}{x}$

$\bar{C}(x)=\dfrac{100 + 25 x - 120 \ln x}{x}$

$\bar{C}(x)=\dfrac{100}{x}+25-120\dfrac{lnx{x}$

Therefore

$\bar{C}(x)=\dfrac{100}{x}+25-120\dfrac{lnx}{x}$

To find average minimum cost

$\bar{C}(x)=\dfrac{100}{x}+25-120\dfrac{lnx}{x}$

$\dfrac{d\bar{C}(x)}{dx} = -\dfrac{100}{x^2} +0-120\times \dfrac{1-lnx}{x^2}$

$0 = -\dfrac{100}{x^2} +0- 120\times \dfrac{1-lnx}{x^2}$

100 + 120 (1-lnx) = 0

$lnx=\dfrac{220}{120}$

ln x =1.833

$x=e^{1.833}$

x=6.25

$\bar{C}(x)=\dfrac{100}{6.25}+25-120\dfrac{ln6.25}{6.25}$

$\bar{C}(x)=5.81$

$\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{\tan\sqrt{x+h}-\tan x}h$

Employ a standard trick used in proving the chain rule:

$\dfrac{\tan\sqrt{x+h}-\tan x}{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt x}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt x}h$

The limit of a product is the product of limits, i.e. we can write

$\displaystyle\left(\lim_{h\to0}\frac{\tan\sqrt{x+h}-\tan x}{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt x}\right)\cdot\left(\lim_{h\to0}\frac{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt x}h\right)$

The rightmost limit is an exercise in differentiating $\sqrt x$ using the definition, which you probably already know is $\dfrac1{2\sqrt x}$ .

For the leftmost limit, we make a substitution $y=\sqrt x$ . Now, if we make a slight change to $x$ by adding a small number $h$ , this propagates a similar small change in $y$ that we'll call $h'$ , so that we can set $y+h'=\sqrt{x+h}$ . Then as $h\to0$ , we see that it's also the case that $h'\to0$ (since we fix $y=\sqrt x$ ). So we can write the remaining limit as

$\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{\tan\sqrt{x+h}-\tan\sqrt x}{\sqrt{x+h}-\sqrt x}=\lim_{h'\to0}\frac{\tan(y+h')-\tan y}{y+h'-y}=\lim_{h'\to0}\frac{\tan(y+h')-\tan y}{h'}$

which in turn is the derivative of $\tan y$ , another limit you probably already know how to compute. We'd end up with $\sec^2y$ , or $\sec^2\sqrt x$ .

So we find that

$\dfrac{\mathrm d\tan\sqrt x}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\sec^2\sqrt x}{2\sqrt x}$

100% is 75 oranges what percent is 250 oranges?

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

x=333.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

hello

you can resolve this by using the rule of 3,let´s see

75 oranges =100%

250 oranges = x%?

75 oranges* x%=250 oranges *100%

$x=\frac{250*100}{75}$

x=333.33%

Have a great day.
