faltersainse [42]

Answer:

30units,2900

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Country Motorbikes Incorporated finds that it costs $400 to produce each motorbike, and that fixed costs are $1600 per day.

The price function is p(x) = 700 − 5x, where p is the price (in dollars) at which exactly x motorbikes will be sold.

If x units are produced and sold we have

Costs for x units = variable costs *x +Fixed costs = 400x+1600

Sales revenue = no of units sold * price = x(700-5x) = 700x-5x^2

Profit funciton = P(x) = Sales revenue - Total cost

= 700x-5x^2-400x-1600\\=300x-5x^2-1600

To get maximum profit we use derivative test I derivative =0 and II derivative =negative

P'(x) = 300-10x\\p"(x) = -10

Producing 30 units will maximize the profit.

Max profit

=P(30) = 2900

Please help me ASAP! Triangle ABC is located at A (2, 3), B (4, 4), and C (6, 3). Zackary says that triangle ABC is an isosceles
son4ous [18]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The second option,

Zackery, because AB=BC

<h2>Why?</h2>

To identify which type of triangle is the triangle formed by the given points, first, we need to calculate the distance between the points.

So, finding the distances we have:

From A to B: (2,3) and (4,4)

distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2} +(y_2-y_1)^{2}}\\\\distance=\sqrt{(4-2)^{2} +(4-3)^{2}}=\sqrt{2^{2} +1^{2} }=\sqrt{4+1}=\sqrt{5}=2.24units

From B to C: (4,4) and (6,3)

distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2} +(y_2-y_1)^{2}}\\\\distance=\sqrt{(6-4)^{2} +(3-4)^{2}}=\sqrt{2^{2} +(-1)^{2} }=\sqrt{4+1}=\sqrt{5}=2.24units

Hence, since the distances AB and BC are equal, the triangle is an isosceles triangle, so the answer is:

Zackery, because AB=BC

Have a nice day!

A scientist measured the exact distance between two points on a map and came up with the following number: 0.04000 km.
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The first zero after decimal point and 4 only

Step-by-step explanation:

Despite having 5 decimal points, the rules of significant figures dictate that unless there is a digit other than zero after, the only significant numbers are those that come before zero. For this case, the significant digits are only 0.04 but if it was 0.0400005 then all the other zeros would have also be considered significant.
