A certain magical substance that is used to make solid magical spheres costs $700 per cubic foot. The power of a magical sphere

depends on its surface area, and a magical sphere can be sold for $50 per square foot of surface area. If you are manufacturing such a sphere, what size should you make them to maximize your profit per sphere?

Answer:

x  =  0.1428 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  x be radius of sphere

Cost of magical sphere is

700 $  per ft³   and  the volume of the sphere of radius x is  V = (4/3)*π*x³

700*(4/3)*π*x³

The selling price is :

Area of the sphere   :  4*π*x²    selling price = 50*4*π*x²

Then my profit = selling price - cost

P(x)  =   200πx²  -  700 (4/3)πx³

Taking derivative both sides

P´(x)  = 400πx  -  2800πx²

P´(x)  =  0        ⇒    400πx  -  2800πx²  =  0

 xπ (  400  -  2800x )  = 0        x ( 400  -  2800x )  = 0

x = 0

And   400  -  2800x = 0           x =   400/2800       x  =  0.1428 ft

A surveyor leave her base camp and drive 42 km on a bearing of 032, she then drive 28km on a bearing of 154.How far is she then
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The scenario is represented in the attached photo. Triangle ABC is formed. AB represents her distance from her base camp. We would determine BC by applying the law of Cosines which is expressed as

a² = b² + c² - 2abCosA

Where a,b and c are the length of each side of the triangle and B is the angle corresponding to b. It becomes

AB² = AC² + BC² - 2(AC × BC)CosC

AB² = 42² + 28² - 2(42 × 28)Cos58

AB² = 1764 + 784 - 2(1176Cos58)

AB² = 2548 - 1246.37 = 1301.63

AB = √1301.63

AB = 36.08 km

To find the bearing, we would determine angle B by applying sine rule

AB/SinC = AC/SinB

36.08/Sin58 = 42/SinB

Cross multiplying, it becomes

36.08SinB = 42Sin58

SinB = 42Sin58/36.08 = 0.987

B = Sin^-1(0.987)

B = 81°

Therefore, her bearing from the base camp is

360 - 81 = 279°

PLZ ANSWER APSP IM IN THE TEST RN!!!
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

x = 38

y = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, you do

(2x + 5) = (3x - 33)

Subtract 2x from both sides to isolate x on one side, you get:

5 = (x - 33)

Add 33 to both sides to separate the normal number from the x, you get:

38 = x

From there, you plug x into one of the equations

2(38) + 5

The answer's 81, meaning that angle is 81 degrees. Using supplementary angles, you can find that angle ACD = 99, which you can use to find angle BCE. You'll get this equation:

(4y - 1) = 99

Add one to both sides to get rid of it, you get:

4y = 100

Divide by four, to get the y all alone:

y = 25

I hope this helped!
