Answer:

a) C(x) is increasing in two regions: (i) (+\infty, 8\,s) and (ii) (10\,s,+\infty).

b) C(x) decreases in (8\,s, 10\,s).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C(x) = x^{3}-27\cdot x^{2}+240\cdot x +850, where x is the quantity of insecticide, measured in hundreds of liters, and C(x) is the total manufacturing cost as a function of the quantity of the insecticide, measured in US dollars. A possible approach to determine which regions of C(x) are decreasing and increasing by means of the first derivative and graphing tools. The first derivative of the function is:

C'(x) = 3\cdot x^{2}-54\cdot x+240 (1)

Please notice that regions where C(x) is increasing has C'(x) > 0, whereas C'(x) < 0 when C(x) < 0.

We notice that C(x) is increasing in two regions: (i) (+\infty, 8\,s) and (ii) (10\,s,+\infty). Besides, C(x) decreases in (8\,s, 10\,s).

Find the value of each variable. If you give the decimal value, round to the nearest tenth.
DiKsa [7]

u = 10.4 and v = 12

Solution:

In the given 2 sides of a triangle are 60°, 60°.

Sum of all the angles of a triangle = 180°

60° + 60° + third angle = 180°

⇒ third angle = 180° – 60° – 60°

⇒ third angle = 60°

All angles are equal, therefore the given triangle is an equilateral triangle.

⇒ All sides are equal in length.

⇒ v = 12

The line drawn from the top angle divides the triangle into two equal parts

and the line is perpendicular.

12 ÷ 2 = 6

Using Pythagoras theorem,

\text{Base}^2+\text{Opposite}^2=\text{Hypotenuse}^2

⇒ 6^2+\text{opposite}^2=12^2

⇒ 36+\text{opposite}^2=144

⇒ \text{opposite}^2=108

⇒ \text{opposite}=6\sqrt3=10.4

⇒ u = 10.4

Hence, u = 10.4 and v = 12.
