Answer:

20 represent the cost per variable inputs

Step-by-step explanation:

C(x) = 20(4x) + 500

Total cost is the addition of variable cost and fixed cost

Fixed cost are cost that do not change during the production process such as machinery, furnitures and fittings.

Variable cost are cost of production that changes with production process such as cost of labor, cost of raw materials.

C(x) = 20(4x) + 500

C(x) represent the total cost

20(4x) represent the variable cost

500 represent the fixed cost

From the variable cost 20(4x)

20 represent the cost per variable inputs

The diameter of a particle of contamination (in micrometers) is modeled with the probability density function f(x)= 2/x^3 for x

natulia [17]

Answer:

a) 0.96

b) 0.016

c) 0.018

d) 0.982

e) x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the Probability density function f(x)= 2/x^3 where x > 1.

<em>Firstly we will calculate the general probability that of P(a < X < b) </em>

P(a < X < b) = $\int_{a}^{b} \frac{2}{x^{3}} dx$ = $2\int_{a}^{b} x^{-3} dx$

= $2[ \frac{x^{-3+1} }{-3+1}]^{b}_a dx$ { Because $\int_{a}^{b} x^{n} dx = [ \frac{x^{n+1} }{n+1}]^{b}_a$ }

= $2[ \frac{x^{-2} }{-2}]^{b}_a$ = $\frac{2}{-2} [ x^{-2} ]^{b}_a$

= $-1 [ b^{-2} - a^{-2} ]$ = $\frac{1}{a^{2} } - \frac{1}{b^{2} }$

a) Now P(X < 5) = P(1 < X < 5) {because x > 1 }

Comparing with general probability we get,

P(1 < X < 5) = $\frac{1}{1^{2} } - \frac{1}{5^{2} }$ = $1 - \frac{1}{25}$ = 0.96 .

b) P(X > 8) = P(8 < X < ∞) = 1/ $8^{2}$ - 1/∞ = 1/64 - 0 = 0.016

c) P(6 < X < 10) = $\frac{1}{6^{2} } - \frac{1}{10^{2} }$ = $\frac{1}{36} - \frac{1}{100 }$ = 0.018 .

d) P(x < 6 or X > 10) = P(1 < X < 6) + P(10 < X < ∞)

= $(\frac{1}{1^{2} } - \frac{1}{6^{2} })$ + (1/ $10^{2}$ - 1/∞) = 1 - 1/36 + 1/100 + 0 = 0.982

e) We have to find x such that P(X < x) = 0.75 ;

⇒ P(1 < X < x) = 0.75

⇒ $\frac{1}{1^{2} } - \frac{1}{x^{2} }$ = 0.75

⇒ $\frac{1} {x^{2} }$ = 1 - 0.75 = 0.25

⇒ $x^{2}$ = $\frac{1}{0.25}$ ⇒ $x^{2}$ = 4 ⇒ x = $2$

Therefore, value of x such that P(X < x) = 0.75 is 2.

Find mPRT.<br> P<br> 649U<br> 42°<br> R<br> s

Mkey [24]

Answer: 296 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc PRT is just the entire circumference - arc PT.

Since the 64 degree angle is a central angle, arc PT measures 64 degrees.

So arc PRT = 360 degree - 64 degree = 296 degrees.

Find e^cos(2+3i) as a complex number expressed in Cartesian form.

ozzi

Answer:

The complex number $e^{\cos(2+31)} = \exp(\cos(2+3i))$ has Cartesian form

$\exp\left(\cosh 3\cos 2\right)\cos(\sinh 3\sin 2)-i\exp\left(\cosh 3\cos 2\right)\sin(\sinh 3\sin 2)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to recall the definition of $\cos z$ when $z$ is a complex number:

$\cos z = \cos(x+iy) = \frac{e^{iz}+e^{-iz}}{2}$ .

Then,

$\cos(2+3i) = \frac{e^{i(2+31)} + e^{-i(2+31)}}{2} = \frac{e^{2i-3}+e^{-2i+3}}{2}$ . (I)

Now, recall the definition of the complex exponential:

$e^{z}=e^{x+iy} = e^x(\cos y +i\sin y)$ .

So,

$e^{2i-3} = e^{-3}(\cos 2+i\sin 2)$

$e^{-2i+3} = e^{3}(\cos 2-i\sin 2)$ (we use that $\sin(-y)=-\sin y)$ .

Thus,

$e^{2i-3}+e^{-2i+3} = e^{-3}\cos 2+ie^{-3}\sin 2 + e^{3}\cos 2-ie^{3}\sin 2)$

Now we group conveniently in the above expression:

$e^{2i-3}+e^{-2i+3} = (e^{-3}+e^{3})\cos 2 + i(e^{-3}-e^{3})\sin 2$ .

Now, substituting this equality in (I) we get

$\cos(2+3i) = \frac{e^{-3}+e^{3}}{2}\cos 2 -i\frac{e^{3}-e^{-3}}{2}\sin 2 = \cosh 3\cos 2-i\sinh 3\sin 2$ .

Thus,

$\exp\left(\cos(2+3i)\right) = \exp\left(\cosh 3\cos 2-i\sinh 3\sin 2\right)$

$\exp\left(\cos(2+3i)\right) = \exp\left(\cosh 3\cos 2\right)\left[ \cos(\sinh 3\sin 2)-i\sin(\sinh 3\sin 2)\right]$ .
