A medical equipment industry manufactures X-ray machines. The unit cost C (the cost in dollars to make each X-ray machine) depen

ds on the number of machines made. If X machines are made, then the unit cost is given by the function C(x)=0.7x^2-462x+88218 .
What is the minimum unit cost?

Answer:

$11988

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The unit cost is given by :

C(x)=0.7x^2-462x+88218

We need to find the minimum unit cost.

For minimum cost,

Put \dfrac{dC}{dx}=0

So,

\dfrac{d}{dx}(0.7x^2-462x+88218)=0\\\\1.4x-462=0\\\\x=\dfrac{462}{1.4}\\\\x=330

Put x = 330 in equation (1).

C(330)=0.7(330)^2-462(330)+88218\\\\=\$11988

So, the minimum unit cost is equal to $11988.

Answer:

1. y = \frac{-A}{By}x + \frac{C}{By}

2. Divide the Opposite of A and B

3. Doesn't make sense the y-intercept is C/By sry I can't help that one

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Ax + By = C

By = -Ax + C

y = \frac{-A}{By}x + \frac{C}{By}

2. No explanation

Simplify without using the absolute value sign<br><br> | x- ( - 18) | if x &gt; - 18
slega [8]
The expression would be > 0.

Subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive; therefore -18--18 = -18+18 = 0.  Since we know that x>-18, 0 is below anything we could get from this.

Help with question 5a
Llana [10]
This is a refreshing question!

We are given that
f(r)=ar+b, and
Sum f(r) =125 for r=1 to 5
Sum f(r) = 475 for r=1 to 10.

and we know, using Gauss's method, that
G(n)=sum (1,2,3.....n) = n(n+1)/2 or
G(n)=n(n+1)/2

Sum f(r) =125 for r=1 to 5
=>
sum=a(sum of 1 to 5) + 5b => G(5)a+5b=125   [G(5)=15]
15a+5b=125 ...................................................(1)

Similarly, Sum f(r) =  475 for r=1 to 10 => G(10)a+5b=475  [G(10)=55]
=>
55a+10b=475.................................................(2)

Solve system of equations (1) and (2)
(2)-2(1)
55-2(15)a=475-2(125) => 25a=225 =>
a=9

Substitute a=9 in 1 => 15(9)+5b=125 => 5b=-10
b=-2

Substitute a and b into f(r), 
f(r)=9r-2
check: sum f(r), r=1,5 = (9-2)+(18-2)+(27-2)+(36-2)+(45-2)=135-10=125 [good]

We define the sum of f(r) for r=1 to n as
S(n)=sum f(r) for r=1 to n = 9(sum 1,2,3....n)-2n = 9n(n+1)/2-2n = 9G(n)-2n
S(n)=9n(n+1)/2-2n
checks:
S(5)=9(15)-2(5)=135-10=125  [good]
S(10)=9(55)-2(10)=495-20=475 [good]

Hence 
(a)
S(n)=sum f(r) for r=1,n
= 9(sum i=1,n)+n(-2)
= 9(n(n+1)/2 -2n
=(9(n^2+n)/2) -2n

(b) sum f(r) for i=8,18
=sum f(r) for i=1,18  -  sum f(r) for i=1,7
=S(18)-S(7)
=(9(18^2-18)/2-2(18))-(9(7^2-7)/2-2(7))
=1503-238
=1265
