Answer:

Bus = 16 Tourists and Taxi = 4 Tourists

Total = 20 Tourists

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

  • Given, 80% of the tourists in a group took a bus and 20% took a taxi. Thus the Ratio of Tourists Travel by Bus toTaxi is 4x:1x.
  • The bus fare per person is 40% less than the taxi fare per person. And Also Given that the bus fare per person is $3 Thus, The Taxi fare per person would be $5.

All together they paid $68 for the tour transportation.

  • 4x × 3 + x × 5 = 68
  • 12x × 5x = 68
  • 17x =68
  • x=4

And, the Ratio of Tourists Travels by Bus toTaxi is 4x:1x . So,the Tourists Travel by Bus to Taxi is 16 and 4 Respectively . Total = 20 Tourists are in the Group.

Suppose that the dollar cost of producing x appliances is c(x)=1000+ 90x- 0.2x 2
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the dollar cost of producing x appliances is

c(x)=1000+ 90x- 0.2x^2

A) Average cost can be obtained by dividing c(x) by units = x

i.e. average cost = \frac{1000}{x} +90-0.2x

B) Marginal cost = dC/dx = 90-0.4x

When x=140 marginal cost = 90-0.4(140)\\=34

C) We calculate

c(140) = =1000+90(140)-0.2(140^2)\\\\=9680

c(141) = =1000+90(141)-0.2(141^2)\\\\\\=9713.80

Marginal cost = difference = 33.80

Same as 34 shown in marginal cost.
