gladu [14]

Answer:

Part 1) Australia $19,751,012\ people$

Part 2) China $1,319,645,764\ people$

Part 3) Mexico $109,712,539\ people$

Part 4) Zaire $60,534,681\ people$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a exponential growth function is given by

$P(t)=a(1+r)^t$

where

P(t) is the population

t is the number of years since year 2000

a is he initial value

r is the rate of change

Part 1) Australia

we have

$a=19,169,000\\r=0.6\%=0.6\100=0.006$

substitute

$P(t)=19,169,000(1+0.006)^t$

$P(t)=19,169,000(1.006)^t$

Find the expected population in 2025,

Find the value of t

t=2005-2000=5 years

substitute the value of t in the equation

$P(5)=19,169,000(1.006)^5=19,751,012\ people$

Part 2) China

we have

$a=1,261,832,000\\r=0.9\%=0.9\100=0.009$

substitute

$P(t)=1,261,832,000(1+0.009)^t$

$P(t)=1,261,832,000(1.009)^t$

Find the expected population in 2025,

Find the value of t

t=2005-2000=5 years

substitute the value of t in the equation

$P(5)=1,261,832,000(1.009)^5=1,319,645,764\ people$

Part 3) Mexico

we have

$a=100,350,000\\r=1.8\%=1.8\100=0.018$

substitute

$P(t)=100,350,000(1+0.018)^t$

$P(t)=100,350,000(1.018)^t$

Find the expected population in 2025,

Find the value of t

t=2005-2000=5 years

substitute the value of t in the equation

$P(5)=100,350,000(1.018)^5=109,712,539\ people$

Part 4) Zaire

we have

$a=51,965,000\\r=3.1\%=3.1\100=0.031$

substitute

$P(t)=51,965,000(1+0.031)^t$

$P(t)=51,965,000(1.031)^t$

Find the expected population in 2025,

Find the value of t

t=2005-2000=5 years

substitute the value of t in the equation

$P(5)=51,965,000(1.031)^5=60,534,681\ people$

A cardboard box without a lid is to have a volume of 8,788 cm3. Find the dimensions that minimize the amount of cardboard used.

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

x = y = 26 cm; z = 13 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The generic solution for the minimum material in an open-top box is that the box is square and half as high as it is wide. It is half a cube of twice the volume.

The dimensions of the square base are ...

∛(2·8788 cm³) = 26 cm

Then the height is half that, or 13 cm.

x = y = 26 cm; z = 13 cm

_____

If you need to see the development, you can use the method of Lagrange multipliers to find the minimum area for the given volume;

area = xy +2(xz +yz)

volume = xyz = 8788

We require each of the partial derivatives of L with respect to x, y, z, and λ to be zero.

L = xy +2(xz +yz) +λ(xyz -8788)

partial with respect to x: 0 = y+2z +λyz

partial with respect to y: 0 = x +2z +λxz

partial with respect to z: 0 = 2x+2y +λxy

partial with respect to λ: 0 = xyz -8788

From the first two equations, we have ...

λ = (y +2z)/(yz) = 1/z +2/y

λ = (x +2z)/(xz) = 1/z +2/x

Equating these expressions for λ, we find ...

1/z +2/y = 1/z +2/x ⇒ x = y

The third equation then tells us ...

λ = (2x +2y)/(xy) = 2/y +2/x

Comparing this to either of the first two expressions for λ, we see ...

1/z +2y = 2/x +2/y ⇒ z = x/2

This is the result we started the answer with:

x = y = 2z = ∛(2·8788 cm³)

A company’s total cost from manufacturing and selling x units of their product is given by: y = 2x^2 – 600x + 49,000. How many u

AysviL [449]

Answer:

number of units for cost to be minimum=150

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2x^2-600 x+49000

dy/dx=4x-600

dy/dx=0 gives 4x-600=0

4x=600

x=150

d^2y/dx^2=4x

at x=150,d^2y/dx^2=4*150=600>0

so y is minimum at x=150
