The revenue as a function of x is equal to -x²/20 + 920x.
The profit as a function of x is equal to -x²/20 + 840x - 6000.
The value of x which maximizes profit is 8,400 and the maximum profit is $3,522,000.
The price to be charged to maximize profit is $500.

<h3>How to express the revenue as a function of x?</h3>

Based on the information provided, the cost function, C(x) is given by 80x + 6000 while the demand function, P(x) is given by -1/20(x) + 920.

Mathematically, the revenue can be calculated by using the following expression:

R(x) = x × P(x)

Revenue, R(x) = x(-1/20(x) + 920)

Revenue, R(x) = x(-x/20 + 920)

Revenue, R(x) = -x²/20 + 920x.

Expressing the profit as a function of x, we have:

Profit = Revenue - Cost

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = -x²/20 + 920x - (80x + 6000)

P(x) = -x²/20 + 840x - 6000.

For the value of x which maximizes profit, we would differentiate the profit function with respect to x:

P(x) = -x²/20 + 840x - 6000

P'(x) = -x/10 + 840

x/10 = 840

x = 840 × 10

x = 8,400.

For the maximum profit, we have:

P(x) = -x²/20 + 840x - 6000

P(8400) = -(8400)²/20 + 840(8400) - 6000

P(8400) = -3,528,000 + 7,056,000 - 6000

P(8400) = $3,522,000.

Lastly, we would calculate the price to be charged in order to maximize profit is given by:

P(x) = -1/20(x) + 920

P(x) = -1/20(8400) + 920

P(x) = -420 + 920

P(x) = $500.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallel line will have the same slope as the reference line. In this case, I don't see the "given line" as promised in the question. If it does appear, and it looks like y = 5x + 3, for example, the slope is 5 and the new line will have the same slope.

<h3><u>If this slope is correct</u>, we can start the equation for the parallel line that goes through point (-3,2) by starting with:</h3><h3 /><h3>y = 5x + b</h3><h3 /><h3>We need a value of b that forces the line to go through point (-3,2). We can do that by using the given point in the equation and solving for b:</h3><h3>y = 5x + b</h3><h3>2 = 5(-3) + b</h3><h3>b = 17</h3><h3 /><h3>The parallel line to y=5x+3 is</h3><h3>y = 5x + 17</h3><h3 /><h3>See attachment.</h3><h3 /><h3 /><h3 />

A professor has recorded exam grades for 10 students in his class, but one of the grades is no longer readable. If the mean sco

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

unreadable score = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

We are trying to find the score of one exam that is no longer readable, let's give that score the name "x". we can also give the addition of the rest of 9 readable s scores the letter "R".

There are two things we know, and for which we are going to create equations containing the unknowns "x", and "R":

1) The mean score of ALL exams (including the unreadable one) is 80

so the equation to represent this statement is:

mean of ALL exams = 80

By writing the mean of ALL scores (as the total of all scores added including "x") we can re-write the equation as:

$\frac{R+x}{10} =80$

since the mean is the addition of all values divided the total number of exams.

in a similar way we can write what the mean of just the readable exams is:

$\frac{R}{9} = 85\\$ (notice that this time we don't include the grade x in the addition, and we divide by 9 instead of 10 because only 9 exams are being considered for this mean.

Based on the equation above, we can find what "R" is by multiplying both sides by 9:

$\frac{R}{9} = 85\\R=85*9= 765$

Therefore we can now use this value of R in the very first equation we created, and solve for "x":

$\frac{R+x}{10} =80\\\frac{765+x}{10} =80\\765+x=80*10=800\\765+x=800\\x=800-765=35$

In a game, if you roll a 6 on a 6-sided number cube, you lose a turn.

Julli [10]

A) the probability is 1 in 6 (1/6); there are six numbers and only one is 6, therefore 1 in 6
B) the probability is 5 in 6 (5/6); there are 6 numbers and only one is not 6, therefore 5 in 6
C) the probability of rolling a 6 is 1 in 6 and the probability of not rolling a 6 is 5 in 6
D) the probability is again 1 in 6 (1/6); 120 divided by 6 is 20, and 20/120 simplifies to 1/6
thats the best i can do to explain
