Length = width +6

L * (L - 6) = 135

L^2 - 6L = 135

L^2 - 6L -135 = 0

Length = 15
Width = 9

Answer: $\sum_{n=1}^{5}4^n=1364$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

$\sum_{n=1}^{5}4^n$

Now, we know the rule for summation , we'll apply this ,

$\sum_{n=1}^{5}4^n\\=4^1+4^2+4^3+4^4+4^5\\$

Now, it becomes geometric progression, so we us the formula for sum of terms in g.p. which is given by

$S_n=\frac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1}\\\\\text{where 'a' is the first term and 'r' is the common ratio}$

So, our equation becomes ,

$a=4 \\\\r=\frac{a_2}{a_1}=\frac{4^2}{4}=4\\\\S_5=\frac{4(4^5-1)}{4-1}\\\\S_5=1364$

Hence ,

$\sum_{n=1}^{5}4^n=1364$

A supply company manufactures copy machines. The unit cost C (the cost in dollars to make each copy machine) depends on the numb

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer: $\$18,629$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The unit cost is given by

$C(x)=0.6x^2-168x+30,389$

find the derivative of the unit cost and equate it to zero to obtain the minimum value

$C'(x)=0.6\times 2x-168\\\Rightarrow 0.6\times 2x-168=0\\\Rightarrow 1.2x=168\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{168}{1.2}\\\\\Rightarrow x=140$

Substitute 140 for $x$ in the cost function, we get

$C(140)=0.6[140]^2-168(140)+30,389\\C(140)=11,760-23,520+30,389\\C(140)=\$18,629$

Explain why the initial value of any function of the form<br> f(x) = a(bx) is equal to a.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = a(b^x), the initial value is always a, because a is independent of x , so when x changes only b^x changes.ex if a = 2, b = 3, and x = 0: f(0) = 2 (3^0) = 2 If x = 1, then f(1) = 2 (3^1) = 2 (3). If x = 2, then f(2) = 2 (3^2) = 2 (9), as you can see a still the same.
