Answer:

22 widgets
$58,400

Step-by-step explanation:

The turning point (maximum or minimum) of quadratic function ...

f(x) = ax² +bx +c

is at x = -b/(2a).

Here, this means the maximum profit will be had when the number of widgets produced weekly is ...

x = -88/(2(-2)) = 22

The profit at that level of production is ...

P(22) = (-2·22 +88)(22) -384 = 44(22) -384 = 968 -384 = 584 . . . hundreds

22 widgets must be produced weekly for the maximum weekly profit of $58,400.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the limit definition of a derivative at a point is:

$\displaystyle{\frac{d}{dx}[f(a)]= \lim_{x \to a}\frac{f(x)-f(a)}{x-a}}$

Hence, if we let f(x) be ln(x+1) and a be 1, this will yield:

$\displaystyle{\frac{d}{dx}[f(1)]= \lim_{x \to 1}\frac{\ln(x+1)-\ln(2)}{x-1}}$

Hence, the limit is equivalent to the derivative of f(x) at x=1, or f’(1).

The answer will thus be D.

mike and kim invest $14,000 in equipment to print yearbooks for schools. each yearbook costs $7 to print and sells for $35. how

Zina [86]

The answer is A.) 500 Year books.

The profit they would gain from each year book would be $28 since each year book costs $7 to make and sells for $35. You would simply divide 14,000 by 28 to find how many books they would need to sell in order to get their investment back which would be 500 books.

Hope this helps.

Amanda and jamie are standing 25 feet apart and spot a bird in the sky between them the angle of elevation from Amanda is 25 fee

finlep [7]

Answer:

25.2294 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this question drawing a triangle using the values given and then using the law of sines. (See image attached to know how to draw the triangle and use the values).

First we need to find the third angle of the triangle, that is, the angle in the vertix where the bird is:

y + 55 + 63 = 180

y = 62°

The relation between the angles and the distances are:

25 / sin(y) = x / sin(63)

25 / 0.8829 = x / 0.8910

x = 25 * 0.8910 / 0.8829 = 25.2294 feet
