The line plots show the number of hours two different age groups of teenagers spent online the previous week.

1 answer:

4 0

The range of the top plot, hours spent by 13-15 year olds, is found by subtracting the highest value, 34, and the lowest value, 21. 34-21=13.
The mean of the top plot is found by adding together all of the data points and dividing by 10 (the number of data points):
$\frac{21+24+26+27+27+28+28+28+31+34}{10}=\frac{274}{10}=27.4$

The range of the bottom plot, minutes spent online by 16-18 year olds, is found by subtracting the highest value, 36, and the lowest value, 12. 36-12=24.
The mean of the bottom plot is found by adding together all of the data points and dividing by 11 (the number of data points):
$\frac{12+21+27+28+28+28+28+30.5+34+35+36}{11}=\frac{307.5}{11} \approx27.95$

What is the answer to 10k-9=9k + 10?

oee [108]

K=19 which would leave the equation 181=181. The first step to solving this is subtracting 9k from each side.
after you do that it should be k-9=10
now you add 9 to both sides leave k=19. plug k into the equation and get 181=181

A bakery finds that the price they can sell cakes is given by the function p = 580 − 10x where x is the number of cakes sold per

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

A) Revenue function = R(x) = (580x - 10x²)

Marginal Revenue function = (580 - 20x)

B) Fixed Cost = 900

Marginal Cost function = (300 + 50x)

C) Profit function = P(x) = (-35x² + 280x - 900)

D) The quantity that maximizes profit = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The Price function for the cake = p = 580 - 10x

where x = number of cakes sold per day.

The total cost function is given as

C = (30 + 5x)² = (900 + 300x + 25x²)

where x = number of cakes sold per day.

Please note that all the calculations and functions obtained are done on a per day basis.

A) Find the revenue and marginal revenue functions [Hint: revenue is price multiplied by quantity i.e. revenue = price × quantity]

Revenue = R(x) = price × quantity = p × x

= (580 - 10x) × x = (580x - 10x²)

Marginal Revenue = (dR/dx)

= (d/dx) (580x - 10x²)

= (580 - 20x)

B) Find the fixed cost and marginal cost function [Hint: fixed cost does not change with quantity produced]

The total cost function is given as

C = (30 + 5x)² = (900 + 300x + 25x²)

The total cost function is a sum of the fixed cost and the variable cost.

The fixed cost is the unchanging part of the total cost function with changing levels of production (quantity produced), which is the term independent of x.

C(x) = 900 + 300x + 25x²

The only term independent of x is 900.

Hence, the fixed cost = 900

Marginal Cost function = (dC/dx)

= (d/dx) (900 + 300x + 25x²)

= (300 + 50x)

C) Find the profit function [Hint: profit is revenue minus total cost]

Profit = Revenue - Total Cost

Revenue = (580x - 10x²)

Total Cost = (900 + 300x + 25x²)

Profit = P(x)

= (580x - 10x²) - (900 + 300x + 25x²)

= 580x - 10x² - 900 - 300x - 25x²

= 280x - 35x² - 900

= (-35x² + 280x - 900)

D) Find the quantity that maximizes profit

To obtain this, we use differentiation analysis to obtain the maximum point of the Profit function.

At maximum point, (dP/dx) = 0 and (d²P/dx²) < 0

P(x) = (-35x² + 280x - 900)

(dP/dx) = -70x + 280 = 0

70x = 280

x = (280/70) = 4

(d²P/dx²) = -70 < 0

Hence, the point obtained truly corresponds to a maximum point of the profit function, P(x).

This quantity demanded obtained, is the quantity demanded that maximises the Profit function.

Hope this Helps!!!
