For example... 2*(6+2)
(2*6) + (2*2) = 16
You distribute whatever number you are multiplying with even variables
4x*(3x+5) Would be 12x^2+20x
That is distribute property

The total monthly profit for a firm is P(x)=6400x−18x^2− (1/3)x^3−40000 dollars, where x is the number of units sold. A maximum

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Maximum profits are earned when x = 64 that is when 64 units are sold.

Maximum Profit = P(64) = 2,08,490.666667$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information: $P(x) = 6400x - 18x^2 - \frac{x^3}{3} - 40000$ , where P(x) is the profit function.

We will use double derivative test to find maximum profit.

Differentiating P(x) with respect to x and equating to zero, we get,

$\displaystyle\frac{d(P(x))}{dx} = 6400 - 36x - x^2$

Equating it to zero we get,

$x^2 + 36x - 6400 = 0$

We use the quadratic formula to find the values of x:

$x = \displaystyle\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}$ , where a, b and c are coefficients of $x^2, x^1 , x^0$ respectively.

Putting these value we get x = -100, 64

Now, again differentiating

$\displaystyle\frac{d^2(P(x))}{dx^2} = -36 - 2x$

At x = 64, $\displaystyle\frac{d^2(P(x))}{dx^2} < 0$

Hence, maxima occurs at x = 64.

Therefore, maximum profits are earned when x = 64 that is when 64 units are sold.

Maximum Profit = P(64) = 2,08,490.666667$

Hey there!

Finding something that’s equivalent to: 4m - 20

Option A.
4(m - 5)

= 4(m) + 4(-5)

= 4m - 20

Possibly Option A. is your answer.

Option B.
2(2m - 10)

= 2(2m) + 2(-10)

= 4m - 20

Possibly Option B. could be your answer

Option C.
4(m - 20)

= 4(m) + 4(-20)

= 4m - 80

Optipn C. isn’t your answer

Option D.
2(2m - 20)

= 2(2m) + 2(-20)

= 4m - 40

Option D. also isn’t your answer just like Option C.

FACTORS OF: 4m - 20

4: 1,2,4, & m

20: 1,2,4,5,10,& 20

LIKE TERMS: 1,2,4

GCF: 4

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
