Given:

The power generated by an electrical circuit (in watts) as a function of its current x (in amperes) is modeled by

P(x)=-15x(x-8)

To find:

The current which will produce the maximum power.

Solution:

We have,

P(x)=-15x(x-8)

P(x)=-15x^2+120x

Differentiate with respect to x.

P'(x)=-15(2x)+120(1)

P'(x)=-30x+120      ...(i)

To find the extreme point equate P'(x)=0.

-30x+120=0

-30x=-120

Divide both sides by -30.

x=4

Differentiate (i) with respect to x.

P'(x)=-30(1)+(0)

P'(x)=-30 (Maximum)

It means, the given function is maximum at x=4.

Therefore, the current of 4 amperes will produce the maximum power.

PLEASE HELP DUE TOMORROW 1. An artist is selling children’s crafts. Necklaces cost 2.25 each and bracelets cost 1.50 per each. a
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost per bracelet = 1.50

Cost per necklace = 2.25

Let :

number of necklace = n

Number of bracelet = b

Cost equation C ;

C = 1.5b + 2.25n

Number of necklace that could be sold for exactly $12

5 necklaces and 1 bracelet :

1.5 + 2.25(5) = 12.75

•2 necklaces and 5 bracelets:

1.5(5) + 2.25(2) = 12

• 3 necklaces and 3 bracelets

1.5(3) + 2.25(3) = 11.25

• 4 necklaces and 2 bracelets

1.5(2) + 2.25(4) = 12

• 3 necklaces and 5 bracelets

1.5(5) + 2.25(3) = 14.25

• 6 necklaces and no bracelets •

1.5(0) + 2.25(6) = 13.5

No necklaces and 8 bracelets

1.5(8) + 2.25(0) = 12

Amount charged per Tshirt = c

Setup fee = $40

Number of students in drama club = 21

Total cost of order = $187

Calculate C ;

Total order cost = set up fee + (cost per shirt * number of shirts)

Total order cost = 40 + 21c

187 = 40 + 21c

187 - 40 = 21c

147 = 21c

c = 147 / 21

C = 7

Hence cost per shirt = $7

If CF = 5, CD = 12, and EF = 5, what is the perimeter of triangle CDE?
Basile [38]

Answer:

The perimeter of triangle CDE is 34.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter of a triangle, you have to add all the sides together, since this looks like a isosceles triangle, you would make side ED also 12 and then just add them all together.

12+12+5+5= 34.

Please help me with this.
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Angl.(QMT) = 134°

Angl.(QMT) = Angl.(QMS)+ Angl.(SMT)

or, 134°= (7x-4)° + (2x+3)°

or, 134° = 7x + 2x -4° +3°

or, 134° = 9x -1°

or, 134° + 1° = 9x

or, 135° = 9x

or, 135°/9° = x

or, 45° = x

x=45°
