A.) R(20) = -10(20)^2 + 800(20) = -10(400) + 16000 = -4000 + 16000 = $12,000

R(25) = -10(25)^2 + 800(25) = -10(625) + 20000 = -6250 + 20000 = $13,750

R(30) = -10(30)^2 + 800(30) = -10(900) + 24000 = -9000 + 24000 = $15,000

b.) For maximum revenue, dR/dp = 0
dR/dp = -20p + 800 = 0
20p = 800
p = 40

Therefore, the maximum revenue will be recorded when the price is set at $40.

Andrews [41]

Answer: 69

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles are a linear pair, which means that they lie on the same line. Therefore, you just have to substract angle 1 with 180.

180-111=69

mauricio estimates that the first module of the project could be completed in as few as 15 days or could take as many as 25 days
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

<em>Most likely time, </em>according to PERT (Program evaluation and review technique).

Step-by-step explanation:

PERT is "a statistical tool used in <em>project management" (Program evaluation and review technique (2020), </em>in Wikipedia), and it is commonly used with CPM <em>(Critical Path Method)</em> to manage projects.

Inside PERT, there are different defined times to accomplished an activity in a project, that is:

  • An <em>optimistic time</em> or minimum time required to accomplished an activity, i.e., if everything goes better than normal, the activity is accomplished before expected.
  • A <em>pessimistic time, </em>a time quite the opposite to optimistic time.
  • A <em>most likely time</em>, or a time required to accomplished an activity if everything goes as expected or normally.
  • An <em>expected time</em>, an statistical estimation.

Considering the question, we have that the <em>time</em> when "the first module of the project could be completed":

  • "[...] in as few as 15 days"  is the <em>optimistic time</em>.
  • "[...] or could take as many as 25 days" is the <em>pessimistic time</em>.
  • "[...] but most likely will require 20 days" is the <em>most likely time</em>.

As a result, the <em>20-day estimate</em> is called the <em>most likely time</em> in the context of the PERT/CPM techniques.

Can someone please help me on e and f i dont understand it and pls explain
Lemur [1.5K]
For parts A, B, C, and D you most likely created a line. What question E is asking is for you to create a line that is perpendicular to the line you already created that also passes through the point (1,1). What is important to understand here is that the slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the original line's slope... if the original slope is (-4/3) than the perpendicular slope is (3/4)... then you should just plug that new slope into point-slope form or slope-intercept form to get your equation... y-y1 = m(x-x1) ... y-1= (3/4)(x-1) ... so it would be y=(3/4)x + 1/4 then for part f just convert into standard form which is just manipulating the variables... look up standard form equation on Google and manipulate the variables from there.
