a)
Let t represents number of years after 1900
so that means for 1900, value of t is 0
We are given point as (0,55)
and it says that life expectancy increases by 0.2
so that means slope,m=0.2
equation of line is y=mt +b
or y=0.2t +b
now we use point (0,55)
55 =0.2(0) +b
55 =0+b
55= b
so b=55
plug it back into the equation,we get
y=0.2t +55
b)
We are given y=73
so we plug it into the equation we got in part a and solve for t
y=0.2t +55
73 =0.2t +55
73-55 =0.2t
18 =0.2t
18/0.2 =t
90 =t
so t=90
This means the birth year =1900+t =1900+90 =1990
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:
7% percent off of $33.00 would be $30.69 cents
Hope helps
