Answer:

20 Bicycles

Step-by-step explanation:

The function for the average cost,C(x) [in hundred of dollars] per bicycle whenever x hundred bicycles are built is given as:

C(x)=0.5x^2-0.2x+6.756

The minimum value of C occurs at the axis of symmetry.

Axis of Symmetry, x=-\frac{b}{2a}

Comparing with the standard form of a quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c=0

a=0.5, b=-0.2

x=-\frac{(-0.2)}{2*0.5}\\x=0.2

x=0.2 Hundreds =0.2 X 100 =20

When Aki's Bicycle Designs produces 20 Bicycles, the cost is minimized.

In 2013 Traci joined a swim club. The fees were £600 per year in 2013. Each year the fees increase by 6%. Calculate, to nearest
balandron [24]

Answer:

715 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>FV = solve</em>

<em>PV = 600</em>

<em>I% = 6</em>

<em>K = 1, N = 3 </em>(2013 - 2016 = 3 years)

Plug it in:

<em>FV = 600 x [ 1 + (6/100 x 1)]³</em>

= 600 x ( 1 + 0.06)³

= 600 x (1.06)³

FV = 714.61, 715 to the nearest dollar.

<em>Therefore, the fee in 2016 is 715 pounds.</em>
