The total number of seats in an auditorium is modeled by f(x) = 2x2 – 6x, where x represents the number of rows. How many rows a

re there in the auditorium if it has a total of 416 seats?
Jose knows to solve for x to determine the number of rows. He decides to use his calculator. Under y =, he types in 2x^2-6x.

He gets the two solutions
x=0,x=3
Jose determines the auditorium has 3 rows.

Answer:

Jose's solution is not correct, the auditorium has 16 rows

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=2x^{2} -6x

where

f(x)------> is the total number of seats in the auditorium

x----> represents the number of rows

How many rows are there in the auditorium if it has a total of 416 seats?

so

Find the value of x for f(x)=416 seats

substitute the value of f(x) in the equation

416=2x^{2} -6x

2x^{2} -6x-416=0

Using a graphing calculator

The values of x are

x=-13, x=16

The solution is

x=16 rows because the number of rows can not be a negative number

Recall Marginal Cost is the derivative of Total Cost, and Fixed Cost is the cost of producing zero units.
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The total cost of producing 91 units of ACME rocket fuel is $3999.99.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Marginal Cost is given by the following function

MC(q) = 200*(q+9)^{-5}

The total cost function is the integrative of the marginal cost function. So:

TC(q) = \int {MC(q)} \, dq

TC(q) = \int {200*(q+9)^{-5}} \, dq

TC(q) = -50*(q+9)^{-4} + K

In which K, the integrative constant, is the fixed cost. So K = 4000.

1. Find the total cost of producing 91 units of ACME rocket fuel.

This is TC(91).

So

TC(91) = -50*(91+9)^{-4} + 4000 = 3999.99

The total cost of producing 91 units of ACME rocket fuel is $3999.99.
