Find the total cost of producing 5 widgets. Widget Wonders produces widgets. They have found that the cost, c(x), of making x widgets is a quadratic function in terms of x. The company also discovered that it costs $15.50 to produce 3 widgets, $23.50 to produce 7 widgets, and $56 to produce 12 widgets.
OK...so we have
a(7)^2 + b(7) + c = 23.50 → 49a + 7b + c = 23.50 (1)
a(3)^2 + b(3) + c = 15.50 → 9a + 3b + c = 15.50 subtracting the second equation from the first, we have
40a + 4b = 8 → 10a + b = 2 (2)
Also
a(12)^2 + b(12) + c = 56 → 144a + 12b + c = 56 and subtracting (1) from this gives us
95a + 5b = 32.50
And using(2) we have
95a + 5b = 32.50 (3)
10a + b = 2.00 multiplying the second equation by -5 and adding this to (3) ,we have
45a = 22.50 divide both sides by 45 and a = 1/2 and using (2) to find b, we have
10(1/2) + b = 2
5 + b = 2 b = -3
And we can use 9a + 3b + c = 15.50 to find "c"
9(1/2) + 3(-3) + c = 15.50
9/2 - 9 + c = 15.50
-4.5 + c = 15.50
c = 20
So our function is
c(x) = (1/2)x^2 - (3)x + 20
And the cost to produce 5 widgets is = $17.50
Answer: The answer should be 72
Explanation: Triangles add up to 180. The two bottom points are the same. So you would take 180 and subtract it by 36. That would give you 144. You would then take 144 and divide it by 2, because the two angles are the same and your only trying to find one.
Answer:
L: 110 W: 90
Step-by-step explanation:
110 + 110 + 90 + 90=400 (perimeter)
110 x 90 =9900 (new area that is greater than the original)
ding ding.
also this was not worth only five pts man LOL
To find the Mean or Average you have to add up all numbers it is asking for which in case are 222 and 198.
so you will add 222+198
That will equal 420
Then you will divide with the amount added together which is 2
420/2=210
so the mean of the 11 people is 210 or 210lbs
Answer:
55
Step-by-step explanation:
Factors for 605: 1, 5, 11, 55, 121, and 605
Factors for 55: 1, 5, 11, and 55
So the highest common factor they have is 55.
HCF = 55
