Let x be the number of hours of nagging groceries spent by Ethan. With this representation, the number of hours for moving lawns will be x + 10. The equation that would let us solve this item is,
                6x + 7.50(x + 10) = 129
The value of x from the equation is 4. Thus, the number of hours spent for moving lawns is 14 hours.

A printer has a contract to print 100,000 posters for a political candidate. He can run the posters by using any number of plate
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Numbers of posters that can be printed in an hour = no of impression/hour × no of plate utilized in each impression.

= 1000x

Thus, the required number of hours it will take can be computed as:

\implies \dfrac{100000}{1000x} \\ \\ =\dfrac{100}{x}

cost per hour = 125

If each plate costs $20 to make, then the total number of plate will equal to 40x

∴

The total cost can be computed as:

C(x) = (\dfrac{100}{x}) \times 125 + 20 x --- (1)

C'(x) = (-\dfrac{12500}{x^2})  + 20  --- (2)

At C'(x) = 0

\dfrac{12500}{x^2} = 20

\dfrac{12500}{20} = x^2

x^2= 625

x = \sqrt{625}

x = 25

C'' (x) = -12500 \times \dfrac{-2}{x^3} +0

C'' (x) = \dfrac{25000}{x^3}

where; x = 25

C'' (x) = \dfrac{25000}{25^3}

C''(x) = 1.6

Thus, at x = 25, C'' > 0

As such, to minimize the cost, the printer needs to make 25 metal plates.
