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).

Answer:

Yes, x and y have a proportional relationship.  

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportional relationship means that, when comparing two quanities, that they are both changing at a constant (same) amount.  When looking at a table to compare quantities, you can see that the pounds of tomatoes 'x' is increasing by one (1) each time.  If you look at the amount spent in dollars 'y', you can see that for each pound (x), the cost is increasing by $4.  So, since for every pound of tomatoes that is purchased increases by $4, then their relationship is proportional.

So you add 7 every time so,

28+7=34
34+7=41

if he continues his pattern he will have done 41 sit-ups on Friday
