Barbara is a waitress and she usually takes between 5 and 9 tables at a time. She found that when she is assigned five tables, s

he averages $15 in tips per table per shift. If she is assigned more tables, the amount of attention she gives to each table decreases. Therefore, she averages less in tips per table. Suppose each additional table causes every table to bring in $3 less in tips. Which of the following equations could be used to find the amount of money she would make in tips if she takes 5 + x tables?
A.
T(x) = -3x2 + 75
B.
T(x) = 20 - x
C.
T(x) = x2 + 5x
D.
T(x) = 3x2 + 75

Answer:

A. T(x) = -3x² + 75

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of tables she takes is 5 + x.  The amount she makes from each table is 15 − 3x.  So the total is:

T(x) = (15 − 3x) (5 + x)

T(x) = 3 (5 − x) (5 + x)

T(x) = 3 (25 − x²)

T(x) = 75 − 3x²

Answer:

1/5.

Explanation:

Note that the sum of infinite geometric series is equally to: a/ (1 - r). Where a = first term and r is the common ratio.

Hence, if f(x) = 3/(1 - 5x) ^2. Therefore, taking the another derivative of f(x)` = 30/ (1 - 5x)^3.

Also, f(x)`` = 450/ ( 1 - 5 )^4 and f(x)``` = 9000( 1 - 5x)^5 and f(x)```` = 225000/( 1 - 5x)^6.

If we are to use the Taylor's series formula then;

F(0) + f'(0) + f"(0)/2! × x^2 + f'''(0)/3! × x^3.

[ NOTE: f(0) = 3, f''(0) = 30, f'''(0) = 9000, f''''(0) = 225000].

450/2! = 225, 9000/ 3! = 1500 and 225000/4! = 9375..

Which gives; 3 + 30x + 225x^2 + 1500x^3 + 9375x^4. The ratio test will then give us our answer as 1/5.

As stated above, alternatively we can make use of the sum of geometric series where |x| < 1/5
