Answer:
x=13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
sin 48 = opposite/ hypotenuse
sin 48 = 10/x
multiply by x on each side
x sin 48 =10
divide by sin 48
x = 10/sin 48
x = 13.456
round to the nearest tenth
13.5
DI/dx=-850x+45500
d2l/d2x=-850 so when dl/dx=0 it is an absolute maximum for l(x)...
dl/dx=0 only when:
850x=45500
x=53.53
x=54 years of age (rounded)
Answer:
The value of x that gives the maximum transmission is 1/√e ≅0.607
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets call f the rate function f. Note that f(x) = k * x^2ln(1/x), where k is a positive constant (this is because f is proportional to the other expression). In order to compute the maximum of f in (0,1), we derivate f, using the product rule.

We need to equalize f' to 0
- k*(2x ln(1/x) - x) = 0 -------- We send k dividing to the other side
- 2x ln(1/x) - x = 0 -------- Now we take the x and move it to the other side
- 2x ln(1/x) = x -- Now, we send 2x dividing (note that x>0, so we can divide)
- ln(1/x) = x/2x = 1/2 ------- we send the natural logarithm as exp
- 1/x = e^(1/2)
- x = 1/e^(1/2) = 1/√e ≅ 0.607
Thus, the value of x that gives the maximum transmission is 1/√e.
