7 0

Answer:

f(t) = 700(1.035)^t.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial value is given as 700 students and this corresponds to time t = 0.

The growth factor is 1 plus 3.5% = 1.035.

The time t is in years.

Which set of ratios could be used to determine if one triangle is a dilation of the other

Lisa [10]

Answer:

See explanation

$\frac{3.6}{3} = \frac{5.4}{4.5} = \frac{6}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles are similar if the ratio of the corresponding sides are proportional.

The ratio of the corresponding sides are:

$\frac{3.6}{3} = 1.2$

$\frac{5.4}{4.5} = 1.2$

$\frac{6}{5} = 1.2$

The set of ratios which could be used to determine if one triangle is a dilation of the other is

$\frac{3.6}{3} = \frac{5.4}{4.5} = \frac{6}{5}$

If there are multiple correct options then check this one too.

$\frac{3}{3.6} = \frac{4.5}{5.4} = \frac{5}{6}$

Help please with number 11

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are not similar since triangle B has an angle (18 cm) that does not correspond to 10, unlike the other angles which you can get by multiplying 3/2.

Find two positive integers such that the sum of the first number and four times the second number is 1000, and the product of th

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The two numbers are:

x = 500

y = 125

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find two numbers x and y, such that:

x + 4*y = 1000

f(x, y) = x*y is maximum.

From the first equation, we can isolate one of the variables to get

x = 1000 - 4y

now we can replace it in f(x, y):

x*y = (1000 - 4*y)*y = 1000*y - 4*y^2

So now we want to maximize the function:

f(y) =- 4*y^2 + 1000*y

where y must be an integer.

Notice that this is a quadratic equation with a negative leading coefficient (so the arms of the graph will open downwards), thus, the maximum will be at the vertex.

Remember that for a general quadratic equation:

y = a*x^2 + bx + c

the x-value of the vertex is:

x = -b/(2*a)

so, in the case of:

f(y) =- 4*y^2 + 1000*y

the y-value of the vertex will be:

y = -1000/(2*-4) = 1000/8 = 125

So we found the value of y.

now we can use the equation:

x = 1000 - 4*y

x = 1000 - 4*125 = 1000 - 500 = 500

x = 500

Then the two numbers are:

x =500

y = 125

The total cost (in hundreds of dollars) to produce x units of a product is c(x) = (3x-2) / (8x+1), find the average cost for eac

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

a) $\frac{74}{10025}$

b) $\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

c) $\frac{-24x^2+32x-2}{(8x^2+x)^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For total cost function $c(x)$ , average cost is given by $\frac{c(x)}{x}$ i.e., total cost divided by number of units produced.

Marginal average cost function refers to derivative of the average cost function i.e., $\left ( \frac{c(x)}{x} \right )'$

Given: $c(x)=\frac{3x-2}{8x+1}$

Average cost = $\frac{c(x)}{x}=\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

At x = 50 units,

$\frac{c(50)}{50}=\frac{150-2}{50(400+1)}=\frac{148}{50(401)}=\frac{74}{10025}$

Average cost = $\frac{c(x)}{x}=\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

Marginal average cost:

Differentiate average cost with respect to $x$

Take $f=3x-2\,,\,g=8x^2+x$

using quotient rule, $\left ( \frac{f}{g} \right )'=\frac{f'g-fg'}{g^2}$

Therefore,

$\left ( \frac{c(x)}{x} \right )'=\left ( \frac{3x-2}{8x^2+x} \right )'\\=\left ( \frac{3(8x^2+x)-(16x+1)(3x-2)}{(8x^2+x)^2} \right )\\=\frac{24x^2+3x-48x^2-3x+32x+2}{(8x^2+x)^2}\\=\frac{-24x^2+32x-2}{(8x^2+x)^2}$
