<span>a. find the number of units of tacos she must sell to minimise her cost.
</span>to find a minimum we need to find the function derivative and make it equal to zero:
dc/dx = 2x - 40 = 0
2x = 40
x = 20
therefore to minimize the cost, she needs to sell 20 units of tacos

<span>b. find the minimum cost.
</span>that can be done by substituting the previous result, 20 tacos, in the original equation:
<span>C(x) = x^2 - 40x + 610
</span>C(20) = (20)^2 - 40(20) + <span>610
</span>= 400 - 800 + 610
= 210
the minimum cost will be 210 dollars

Question: How long does it take an investment to quadruple in value if it earns 4% simple interest per year?
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

It takes 75 years for the investment to quadruple in value

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

E = P*I*t

In which E is the amount of interest earned, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

After t years, the total amount of money is:

T = E + P

In this question:

4% simple interest per year, so I = 0.04.

Quadruple:

t when T = 4P.

The interest earned is:

T = E + P

4P = E + P

E = 3P

Now we find the time.

E = P*0.04*t

3P = P*0.04*t

0.04t = 3

t = \frac{3}{0.04}

t = 75

It takes 75 years for the investment to quadruple in value
