Answer:
a) 
b) 
c)


Step-by-step explanation:
a)
We know that Revenue is our total income and cost is our total cost. Thus, profit is what's left after cost is subtracted from Income (revenue). Thus, we can say:
P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
Finding Profit Function (P(x)):

This is the profit function.
b)
The marginal profit is the profit earned when ONE ADDITIONAL UNIT of the product is sold. This is basically the rate of change of profit per unit. We find this by finding the DERIVATIVE of the Profit Function.
Remember the power rule for differentiation shown below:

Now, we differentiate the profit function to get the marginal profit function (P'):

This is the marginal profit function , P'.
c)
We need to find P'(4000) and P'(9500). So we basically put "4000" and "9500" in the marginal profit function's "x". The value is shown below:

and

Answer:
It's 10 times larger.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you just have 500,000, and the other one is 50,000, That means 50,000 x 10 is 500,000.
Answer: it will trave 56.89 meters before coming to rest.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a geometric progression since the distance travelled (height) by the ball is reducing by a constant ratio, r. Since the number of times that the ball will bounce is infinite, then we would apply the formula for determining the sum of the terms in a geometric progression to infinity which is expressed as
S = a/(1 - r)
where
S = sum of the distance travelled by the ball
a = initial distance or height of the ball
r = common ratio
From the information given,
a = 128/9
r = (32/3)/(128/9) = 0.75
Therefore,
S = (128/9)/(1 - 0.75) = 56.89 meters
You add $1.29 and $1.29 and 16.5 and 16.5 and 4.5 and 4.5 and that equals $44.58.
I hope I helped you! :)
$1.29 + $1.29 + 16.5 + 16.5 + 4.5 + 4.5 = $44.58.
