Answer:

x = 4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

c(x ) = 2x³ - 12x² + 23,000

Now,

For point of maxima or minima, differentiating the above equation with respect to number of items 'x'

c'(x) = 3(2x²) - 2(12x) + 0

or

c'(x) = 3(2x²) - 2(12x)

for point of maxima or minima put c'(x) = 0

Thus,

3(2x²) - 2(12x) = 0

or

6x² - 24x = 0

or

x² - 4x = 0

or

x(x - 4) = 0

or

x = 0  and, x =  4

Since,

The quantity cannot be zero

Therefore,

production level that will minimize the average cost of making x items is x = 4 units

What is 6/a-6 = 3/a-3 ?<br> help me please
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

a=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply all terms by a and cancel:

6+−6a=3+−3a

−6a+6=−3a+3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−6a+6+3a=−3a+3+3a(Add 3a to both sides)

−3a+6=3

−3a+6−6=3−6(Subtract 6 from both sides)

−3a=−3

−3a

−3

=

−3

−3

(Divide both sides by -3)

a=1

balandron [24]

Answer:

v=58

Step-by-step explanation:

All we have to do here is plug in the numbers for the corresponding letters. That means we are left with v=13+9*5. So then all we have to do is put it in the calculator and we get 58.

navik [9.2K]

Answer: 153 trays

Step-by-step explanation:

hotdogs =153

Hamburger = 171

Mike is to put the same number of hamburger and hotdogs in each plate.

we assume that a whole number of each food is placed in each tray.

The maximum amount of trays will be determined by the minimum food which is hotdog, so, the hotdog is the constraint.

Mike will have to use 153 trays.
