Answer:
The correct answer is 0.5 pounds of pollutant.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the problem the cost of controlling emissions at a firm is given by:
C(q) = 1,260 + 100 × , where q is the reduction in emissions (in pounds of pollution per day) and C is the daily cost to the firm (in dollars) of this reduction.
Government clean-air subsidies amount to $100 per pound of pollutant removed per day.
Net cost = C(q) - Subsidy
⇒ Net Cost = 1,260 + 100 × - 100 × q.
In order to minimize net cost we calculate, (Net cost) = 0.
⇒ 200 × q - 100 = 0
⇒ q = 0.5
We can see that the second order derivative is positive and thus the net cost minimizes.
Thus the firm should remove 0.5 pounds of pollutant each day in order to minimize net cost.

Answer:
Length 10, Width 20, Area 200
Step-by-step explanation:
The <u>correct scale</u> is 1 in = 4 mi.
<u>Explanation</u>:
The scale tells us what a given measurement on the map equals in real-life distance.
The measurement on the map that we have is 2 inches, and it equals 8 miles:
2 in = 8 mi
This can also be written as 2/8. This fraction can be simplified, since both 2 and 8 are divisible by 2; it will simplify to 1/4. This is the same as
1 in = 4 mi.
