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

In the collection of beads, StartFraction 4 Over 20 EndFraction are blue. Which model shows the percent of beads that are blue?
jolli1 [7]

Option B model shows the percent of beads that are blue.

Solution:

Fraction of beads blue = \frac{4}{20}

To convert it into percent multiply the fraction by 100.

$\text {Percent of} \ \frac{4}{20}=\frac{4}{20}\times 100\%

                     $=\frac{4\times 100}{20} \%

Cancel the common factors, we get

                    = 20%

                    $=\frac{20}{100}

This means total number of boxes 100 and shaded in blue color 20.

Therefore option 2 represents \frac{20}{100}.

Hence option B model shows the percent of beads that are blue.

= 14 \times  {10}^{ - 2}

\:

Number 2

=  {100 }^{ - 1}

=  \frac{1}{ {100}^{1} }

=  \frac{1}{100}

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

teds sister is 60 years old, ted is 120 some how, and joe is 123.

Step-by-step explanation:

half of a century is 50 because a century is 100 years and plus 10 years equals 60 and 60 times 60 equals 120 and 120 plus 3 years equals 123 so that's how I got the answers. At first this answer looks complicated you just have to read the question carefully.
