Answer:
1353 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The cliff height and the distance from its base to the boat form the legs of a right triangle. The cliff height is the leg opposite the elevation angle, and the distance to the boat is the leg adjacent. Given these two legs of the triangle, the tangent relation seems useful:
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
We want to find the cliff height (opposite), so we can multiply this equation by Adjacent:
Opposite = Adjacent×Tan
cliff height = (2994 ft)(tan(24°19')) ≈ 1353 ft
The cliff is about 1353 feet high.
It shows 1/2

Answer:
<u>ALTERNATIVE 1</u>
a. Find the profit function in terms of x.
P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
P(x) = (-60x² + 275x) - (50000 + 30x)
P(x) = -60x² + 245x - 50000
b. Find the marginal cost as a function of x.
C(x) = 50000 + 30x
C'(x) = 0 + 30 = 30
c. Find the revenue function in terms of x.
R(x) = x · p
R(x) = x · (275 - 60x)
R(x) = -60x² + 275x
d. Find the marginal revenue function in terms of x.
R'(x) = (-60 · 2x) + 275
R'(x) = -120x + 275
The answers do not make a lot of sense, specially the profit and marginal revenue functions. I believe that the question was not copied correctly and the price function should be p = 275 - x/60
<u>ALTERNATIVE 2</u>
a. Find the profit function in terms of x.
P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
P(x) = (-x²/60 + 275x) - (50000 + 30x)
P(x) = -x²/60 + 245x - 50000
b. Find the marginal cost as a function of x.
C(x) = 50000 + 30x
C'(x) = 0 + 30 = 30
c. Find the revenue function in terms of x.
R(x) = x · p
R(x) = x · (275 - x/60)
R(x) = -x²/60 + 275x
d. Find the marginal revenue function in terms of x.
R(x) = -x²/60 + 275x
R'(x) = -x/30 + 275
