A certain company's main source of income is selling cloth bracelets. The company's annual profit (in thousands of dollars) as a

function of the price of a bracelet (in dollars) is modeled by: P(x)=-2x^2+16x-24. What is the maximum profit that the company can earn?

Answer:

8 thousand dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

The company's annual profit (in thousands of dollars) as a function of the price of a bracelet (in dollars) is modeled by: P(x)=-2x^2+16x-24

To find maximum profit , we need to find out the vertex

x coordinate of vertex formula is -b/2a

P(x)=-2x^2+16x-24

a=-2  and b = 16

x= \frac{-b}{2a}= \frac{-16}{2(-2)} = 4

Now we plug in 4 for x  and find out P(4)

P(x)=-2(4)^2+16(4)-24= 8

So the maximum profit the company can earn is 8 thousand dollars when price = $4

The expression 100 + 20m100+20m100, plus, 20, m gives the volume of water in Marcel’s pool (in liters) after Marcel spends mmm m
Nady [450]
All you have to do is you only need to evaluate the given equation which is:100 + 20m where m would be the number of minutes = 5 1/4 minutes
100 + 20 (5 1/4) 
= 100 + 105 
= 205 cubic liters is the volume of water in Marcel’s pool after he fills it.

In a study of the accuracy of fast food​ drive-through orders, one restaurant had orders that were not accurate among orders obs
Lesechka [4]

Complete Question

In a study of the accuracy of fast food drive-through orders, one restaurant had 32 orders that were not accurate among 367 orders observed. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the rate of inaccurate orders is equal to 10%. Does the accuracy rate appear to be acceptable?

Answer:

The decision rule  is

  Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is  

  There is sufficient evidence to show that the rate of inaccurate orders is equal to​ 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally from the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n =  367

    The number of orders that were not accurate is  k = 32

    The population proportion for rate of inaccurate orders is  p = 0.10

The null hypothesis is  H_o :  p = 0.10

The alternative hypothesis is  H_a :  p \ne 0.10

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as  

         \^ p = \frac{k}{n}

=>      \^ p = \frac{32}{367}

=>      \^ p = 0.0872

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

         z= \frac{ \^ p - p }{ \sqrt{ \frac{ p(1 - p)}{ n} } }

=>      z= \frac{ 0.0872  - 0.10 }{ \sqrt{ \frac{ 0.10 (1 - 0.10 )}{367} } }  

=>      z= -0.8174

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to  -0.8174 is  

         P(z <  -0.8173 )  = 0.20688

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

         p- value =  2 *  0.20688

=>      p- value =  0.4138

From the value obtained we see that  p-value >  \alpha hence

The decision rule  is

  Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is  

  There is sufficient evidence to show that the rate of inaccurate orders is equal to​ 10%

The dye dilution method is used to measure cardiac output with 3 mg of dye. The dye concentrations, in mg/L, are modeled by c(t)
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Cardiac output:F=0.055 L\s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The dye dilution method is used to measure cardiac output with 3 mg of dye.

To Find : Find the cardiac output.

Solution:

Formula of cardiac output:F=\frac{A}{\int\limits^T_0 {c(t)} \, dt} ---1

A = 3 mg

\int\limits^T_0 {c(t)} \, dt =\int\limits^{10}_0 {20te^{-0.06t}} \, dt

Do, integration by parts

[\int{20te^{-0.6t}} \, dt]^{10}_0=[20t\int{e^{-0.6t} \,dt}-\int[\frac{d[20t]}{dt}\int {e^{-0.6t} \, dt]dt]^{10}_0

[\int{20te^{-0.6t}} \, dt]^{10}_0=[\frac{-20te^{-0.6t}}{0.6}+\frac{20}{0.6}\int {e^{-0.6t} \,dt]^{10}_0

[\int{20te^{-0.6t}} \, dt]^{10}_0=[\frac{-20te^{-0.6t}}{0.6}+\frac{20e^{-0.6t}}{(0.6)^2}]^{10}_{0}

[\int{20te^{-0.6t}} \, dt]^{10}_0=[\frac{-200e^{-6}}{0.6}+\frac{20e^{-6}}{(0.6)^2}]+\frac{20}{(0.60^2}

[\int{20te^{-0.6t}} \, dt]^{10}_0=\frac{20(1-e^{-6}}{(0.6)^2}-\frac{200e^{-6}}{0.6}

[\int{20te^{-0.6t}} \, dt]^{10}_0\sim {54.49}

Substitute the value in 1

Cardiac output:F=\frac{3}{54.49}

Cardiac output:F=0.055 L\s

Hence Cardiac output:F=0.055 L\s
