Answer:

  Spreadsheet values

  • B3 = $15 (shown)
  • C4 = $420 (shown)
  • D6 = $272.5
  • E4 = $6
  • F2 = $16
  • F6 = $5

  Other values

  • profit maximizing Q: 35
  • profit maximizing P: $13
  • maximum profit: $227.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Labeling the columns of the spreadsheet A--F, and the rows 1--7, we want to find the values as follows.

a) The relationship between quantity, price, and revenue is ...

  total revenue = quantity × price

  price = (total revenue)/quantity

Then ...

  • B3 = 375/25 = 15 (as shown)
  • C4 = 30×14 = 420 (as shown)

__

b) The relationship between total cost and marginal cost is ...

  mc2 = (tc2 -tc1)/(q2 -q1)

  tc2 = (mc2)(q2 -q1) +tc1

Then ...

  • D6 = 9(40 -35) +227.5 = 272.5
  • E4 = (192.5 -162.5)/(30 -25) = 6

__

c) Marginal revenue is figured the same way as marginal cost.

  mr2 = (r2 -r1)/(q2 -q1)

Then ...

  • F2 = (320 -0)/(20 -0) = 16
  • F6 = (480 -455)/(40 -35) = 5

__

d) The quantity maximizing profit will be the quantity such that marginal revenue is equal to marginal cost. That is, marginal profit is zero. That quantity  is 35, where both marginal cost and marginal revenue are 7.

__

e) The price at a quantity of 35 is 13. This value is read from the given table.

__

f) The maximum profit is the difference between revenue and cost at the profit-maximizing quantity:

  maximum profit = 455 -227.5 = 227.5

Using the graph as your guide, complete the following statement.
ollegr [7]

Answer:

positive

Step-by-step explanation:

the discriminant of the function is postive.

because from the graph we notice that it has 2 intercepts on x-axis, which means the function has 2 real solution when y=0

that implies the discriminant is positive.

\Delta = \sqrt{b^2-4ac}

if \Delta > 0 we have 2 distinct real solution

if \Delta we have no real solution but 2 complex solutions

if \Delta = 0 we have 2 identical real solution

The fourth term of an Arithmetic Sequence is equal to 3 times the first term, and the seventh term exceeds twice the third term
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

The first term is 3. The common difference is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is x.

The common difference is d.

The second term is x + d.

3rd term: x + 2d

4th term: x + 3d

7th term: x + 6d

"The fourth term of an Arithmetic Sequence is equal to 3 times the first term"

x + 3d = 3 * x       Eq. 1

"the seventh term exceeds twice the third term by 1"

x + 6d = 2(x + 2d) + 1       Eq. 2

Simplify Eq. 1:

2x = 3d

Simplify Eq. 2:

x + 6d = 2x + 4d + 1

x = 2d - 1

Multiply both sides of the last equation by 2.

2x = 4d - 2

2x = 3d   (simplified Eq. 1)

Since 2x = 2x, then the right sides are equal.

3d = 4d - 2

d = 2

2x = 3d

2x = 3(2)

2x = 6

x = 3

Answer: The first term is 3. The common difference is 2.

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

230,300 different selections.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the order does not matter, the number of possible different selections is determined as the combination of choosing four numbers out of 50:

n=\frac{50!}{(50-4)!4!}\\\\n=\frac{50*49*48*47}{4*3*2*1} \\\\n=230,300\ combinations

There are 230,300 possible different selections.
