<span>1) production cost f(x), in dollars, for x number of units produced by company 1:

f(x) = 0.05x^2 − 7x + 300

2) Table that represents the production cost g(x), in dollars, for x number of units produced by company 2:

x        g(x)
0.6     899.58

0.8     899.52

1        899.50

1.2     899.52

1.4     899.58

3) Comparison: do a table for f(x) with the same x-values of the table for g(x).

x            f(x) = </span><span>0.05x^2 − 7x + 300    g(x)

</span><span><span>0.6         295.818                               899.58

0.8         294.432                               899.52

1            293.05                                 899.50

1.2         291.672                               899.52

1.4          290.298                              899.58 </span>

As you can see the values of f(x) are consistently lower than the values of g(x) for the same x-values.

The minimum production cost for company 2 is around 899.50 at x = 1, while the minimum production cost of company 1 is defintely lower (lower than 292.298 for sure, in fact if you find the vertex it is 55).

Answer: Based on the given information, the minimum production cost for company 2 is greater. </span>

In triangle ACD, what is the value of X:<br> who ever show works gets brainly.
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that BE is parallel to CD and intersects the 2 other sides, then it divides the 2 sides in proportion, that is

\frac{AB}{BC} = \frac{AE}{ED}, substitute values

\frac{x}{6} = \frac{10}{8} ( cross- multiply )

8x = 60 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 7.5

USPshnik [31]

De acuerdo con las definiciones de precio a pagar, porcentaje de descuento y porcentaje remanente, el precio a pagar por el celular es $ 1080.

<h3>¿Cuánto cuesta un celular con descuento? </h3>

En esta situación una persona recibe un descuento por la compra de su celular, el precio a pagar es el producto de multiplicar el coste <em>sin descuento</em> y el porcentaje remanente en forma fraccionaria. El porcentaje remanente se calcula al restar el descuento del cien por ciento. A continuación, procedemos al cálculo requerido:

x = 4500 × (1 - 76/100)

x = 1080

De acuerdo con las definiciones de precio a pagar, porcentaje de descuento y porcentaje remanente, el precio a pagar por el celular es $ 1080.
