Answer:

$8.44

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question it self we know that 1 pound of chicken costs $3.75. In order to solve this question we just need to find out how much 1 pound does fit into 2.25 pounds and then multiple the result by $3.75. We can find that out by dividing 2.25 by 1, and we get 2.25. Then we do the following....

2.25 x $3.75 = $8.4375

We got $8.4375 as an answer but we have to remember that when we are talking about money and we have to round to the nearest cent (which is equal to 1 hundredth of a dollar). So now we just have to round to the nearest hundredth, and we get $8.44 as our answer.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

f(x) = 3x² - 5x - 4

g(x) = -4x - 12

Step 2: Find f(g(x))

f(g(x)) = 3(-4x - 12)² - 5(-4x - 12) - 4

f(g(x)) = 3(16x² + 96x + 144) + 20x + 60 + 4

f(g(x)) = 48x² + 288x + 432 + 20x + 64

f(g(x)) = 48x² + 308x + 496

Step 3: Find f(g(-4))

f(g(-4)) = 48(-4)² + 308(-4) + 496

f(g(-4)) = 48(16) - 1232 + 496

f(g(-4)) = 768 - 736

f(g(-4)) = 32

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,

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

Sally is 10 years older than one fifth of her mother’s age. If Sally is 20 years old, how old is her mother?

slamgirl [31]

S = Sally

M = Mother

S = M/5 + 10

20 = M/5 + 10

20 - 10 = M/5

10 = M/5

M = 10 * 5

M = 50

----------------

Her mother is 50 yo

-----------------

50 : 5 + 10 = 20

the answer is good
