Let the original amount be a

An investment offers to double your money in 30 months i.e. 2a in 30 months

Fv = Pv (1 + x)ⁿ

Fv future value (i.e. future value of the cash flow after a particular time period. )

Pv Present value

x interest

n number of compounding period

Fv = Pv (1 + x)ⁿ

2a = a (1 + x)^(30/6)

2^(1/5)= 1 + x

1.1486 = 1 + x

x = 0.1486 0r 14.86%

Answer:

The rate of change in 6 months is 14.87%

Explanation:

Let a be the amount that the money is multiplied in one month. We know that in 30 months it is multiplied by 2, so if we power a by 30 wew obtain 2:

a³⁰ = 2

Thus, 2 = a³⁰ = a⁶*⁵ = (a⁶)⁵

(here we use the propiety a^bc = (a^b)^c = (a^c)^b)

We can conclude that a⁶ = 2^(1/5) = 1.1487

The rate in 6 months is (1.1487-1)*100 = 14.87%

Alla [95]

Answer:

(a) C(x) = 9500 + 55x

(b) R(x) = 90x

(c) P(x) = 35x - 9500

(d) C(240) = $22,700

All functions are measured in $.

Explanation:

The total revenue of an entity is a function of the number of units sold and the selling price per unit. The total cost is a function of the fixed cost and the variable cost (which is also a function of the units produced/sold). Profit is a function of sales and cost.

Given that monthly;

fixed costs = $9500

variable costs = $55 per unit

Selling price  = $90 per unit

Where x is the number of units

total costs C(x) in $ = 9500 + 55x

total revenue R(x) in $ = 90x

profit P(x) in $ = 90x - (9500 + 55x)

= 35x - 9500

C(240) = 9500 + 55(240)

= $22,700
