Answer:

The average cost per item when 200 items are produced is 61.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with the cost formula given by:

C(x)=7.6x+10,800

Then we compute C(x) for x=200, 2000 and 5000 as follows:

C(200)=7.6*200+10,800=12,320\\C(2000)=7.6*2000+10,800=26,000\\C(5000)=7.6*5000+10,800=48,800

Finally, to obtain the average cost per item when 200, 2,000 and 5,000 are produced (we will denote this by Av(200), Av(2000) and Av(5000) respectively) we just need to divide C(x) by the number of items produced. Then Av(x)=\frac{C(x)}{x}.

Av(200)=\frac{C(200)}{200}=\frac{12,320}{200}= 61.6\\Av(2000)=\frac{C(2000)}{2000}=\frac{26,000}{2000}= 13\\Av(5000)=\frac{C(5000)}{5000}=\frac{48,800}{5000}= 9.76\\

What is number 20 simplified?
guapka [62]

Answer:

  2

----------

5w^11


Step-by-step explanation:

8/20 reduces to 2/5, and (w^(-2)) / w^9 becomes 1 / w^11.

Overall, #20 reduces to:

  2

----------

5w^11


Recall the rule of exponents:

  w^a

----------- = w^(a-b)

  w^b


and note that

 w^(-2)

------------ = w^(-2-9)  =  w^(-11) (same as above)

  w^9

nekit [7.7K]

Step 1:

a) Write the quadratic model

a = -15.64

b = -1.24

c = 5.23

P(t)=-15.64t^2\text{ - 1.24t + 5.2}3

b) t = 0.30

\begin{gathered} P(t)=-15.64t^2\text{ - 1.24t + 5.2}3 \\ =\text{ -15.64 }\times0.3^2\text{ - 1.24}\times\text{ 0.3 + 5.2}3 \\ =\text{ -1.4076 - 0.372 + }5.23 \\ =\text{ 3.45} \end{gathered}

c) t = 0.52 seconds

\begin{gathered} p(t)=-15.64t^2\text{ - 1.23t + 5.23} \\ =\text{ -15.64}\times0.52^2\text{ - 1.23}\times0.52\text{ + 5.23} \\ =\text{ -4.23 - 0.64 + 5.23} \\ =\text{ 0.36} \end{gathered}

d) 0.30 is more likely to be relaible.

e)

\begin{gathered} p(t)\text{ = 1} \\ p(t)=-15.64t^2\text{ - 1.23t + 5.23} \\ 1=-15.64t^2\text{ - 1.23t + 5.23} \\ -15.64t^2\text{ - 1.23t + 4.23 = 0} \\ t\text{ = 0.48222} \\ \text{t = 0.48 seconds} \end{gathered}
