<h2>Steps:</h2>

So for this, since C(x) is the cost, and we are given the cost of $9050, we will plug 9050 into C(x) and solve for x:

9050=x^2-14x+74

So for this, I will be completing the square. Firstly, subtract 74 on both sides of the equation:

8976=x^2-14x

Next, we want to make the right side of the equation a perfect square. To find the constant of this soon-to-be perfect square, you need to divide the x coefficient by 2, square the quotient, then add the result on both sides of the equation. In this case:

-14 ÷ 2 = -7, (-7)² = 49

9025=x^2-14x+49

Next, factor the left side:

9025=(x-7)^2

Next, square root both sides:

\pm\ 95=x-7

Next, add 7 to both sides:

7\pm 95=x

Next, solve the left side twice. Once with the plus symbol, once with the minus symbol:

102,-88=x

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Since we cannot have negative units in this context, <u>at the cost of $9050 you can manufacture 102 units.</u>

Ivenika [448]

correct Option is B i.e, 72x^2+288x^2-216x whose simplified form is: 360x^2-216x

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the expression:

2[(6x)(6x)]+4[(12x - 9)(6x)]

Solving:

2[(6x)(6x)]+4[(12x - 9)(6x)]\\=2[36x^2]+4[(12x*6x)-(9*6x)]\\=72x^2+4[72x^2-54x]\\=72x^2+288x^2-216x\\=360x^2-216x

So, correct Option is B i.e, 72x^2+288x^2-216x whose simplified form is: 360x^2-216x

Two separate tests are designed to measure a student's ability to solve problems. Several students are randomly selected to take
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

a) r = 0.974

b) Critical value = 0.602

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Two separate tests are designed to measure a student's ability to solve problems. Several students are randomly selected to take both test and the results are give below

Test A | 64 48 51 59 60 43 41 42 35 50 45

Test B |  91 68 80 92 91 67 65 67 56 78 71

To find - (a) What is the value of the linear coefficient r ?

             (b) Assuming a 0.05 level of significance, what is the critical value ?

Proof -

A)

r = 0.974

B)

Critical Values for the Correlation Coefficient

n       alpha = .05          alpha = .01

4           0.95                       0.99

5           0.878                     0.959

6           0.811                       0.917

7           0.754                      0.875

8           0.707                      0.834

9           0.666                      0.798

10          0.632                      0.765

11           0.602                      0.735

12          0.576                       0.708

13          0.553                       0.684

14           0.532                       0.661

So,

Critical r = 0.602 for n = 11 and alpha = 0.05
