hoa [83]

Answer:

C. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) , (x1,y1) = (1,-5) , (x2,y2)=(4,1)

= (1-(-5)) / (4-1)

= (1+5) / 3

= 6/3

= 2

Since profit can't be negative, the production level that'll maximize profit is approximately equal to 220.

<h3>How to find the production level that'll maximize profit?</h3>

The cost function, C(x) is given by 12000 + 400x − 2.6x² + 0.004x³ while the demand function, P(x) is given by 1600 − 8x.

Next, we would differentiate the cost function, C(x) to derive the marginal cost:

C(x) = 12000 + 400x − 2.6x² + 0.004x³

C'(x) = 400 − 5.2x + 0.012x².

Also, revenue, R(x) = x × P(x)

Revenue, R(x) = x(1600 − 8x)

Revenue, R(x) = 1600x − 8x²

Next, we would differentiate the revenue function to derive the marginal revenue:

R'(x) = 1600 - 8x

At maximum profit, the marginal revenue is equal to the marginal cost:

1600 - 8x = 400 − 5.2x + 0.012x

1600 - 8x - 400 + 5.2x - 0.012x² = 0

1200 - 2.8x - 0.012x² = 0

0.012x² + 2.8x - 1200 = 0

Solving by using the quadratic equation, we have:

x = 220.40 or x = -453.73.

Since profit can't be negative, the production level that'll maximize profit is approximately equal to 220.

Answer:

3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

total cards 3+4 = 7

Not green = 7-4 = 3 cards

P ( not green )= not green cards / total = 3/7

Solve the system of equations. <br><br> 10x+y=−20 <br><br> y=2x2−4x−16<br><br> ( , ) and ( , )

Sladkaya [172]

I will go about solving this using the elimination method.

First, convert the equations.

10x + y = -20
4x + y = -12

Second, find the easiest variable to get rid of and get rid of it! (In this case, y) We will subtract to get rid of y.

6x = -8

Third, you want to solve the equation.

6x = -8 (divide by 6)
x = $-1 \frac{1}{3}$

Fourth, solve for y by inserting the answer for x into one of the equations.

10( $-1 \frac{1}{3}$ ) + y = -20
$-13 \frac{1}{3}$ + y = -20 (subtract $-13 \frac{1}{3}$ )
y = $-6 \frac{2}{3}$

The solution for this system of equations is ( $-1 \frac{1}{3}$ , $-6 \frac{2}{3}$ ).
