Answer:

1000 units produces a maximum cost of $300,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

C(x) = -0.3x² + 600x

The equation is a downward parabola.  Its maximum is at the vertex, which can be found with:

x = -b / (2a)

Here, a = -0.3 and b = 600.

x = -(600) / (2 × -0.3)

x = 1000

The maximum cost is:

C(1000) = 300,000

1000 units produces a maximum cost of $300,000.

You can also use calculus to find the maximum.

C(x) = -0.3x² + 600x

C'(x) = -0.6x + 600

0 = -0.6x + 600

x = 1000

Can you help me on question six?!
Amanda [17]

Answer: A (1:2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 12 puppies total and 8 of the puppies are yellow labs, there must be 12 - 8 = 4 black labs. Now, the ratio of black labs to yellow labs is 4:8 because there are 4 black labs and 8 yellow labs. However, we can simplify this ratio by dividing the entire ratio by 4. In this case, we would get (4/4):(8/4), which simplifies to 1:2, which is the answer.

quester [9]

Step-by-step explanation:

let p be the point which is at a distance of 4 units from the x-axis and at a distance of 5 units from the y axis

(i) When P lies in the first quadrant then the coordinates of P are (5,4).

(ii) When of P lies in the second quadrant then the coordinates of P are (-5,4).

(iii) When P lies in the third quadrant then the coordinates of P are (-5,-4).

(iv) When P lies in the fourth quadrant then the coordinates of P are (5,-4).
