Answer:
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) = 0.05x^2 − 7x + 300 g(x)
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
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.

Answer:
10 whole boards
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 36 divided by 3.75 = 9.6
2. Round to the nearest whole number
3. 9.6 rounded = 10
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
log4x = 2.1
logx/log4 = 2.1
logx = log(4) x 2.1
logx = 1.264
x = 10^(1.264)
x = 18.38 (to two d.p)
Answer:
5575 cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a sphere is V = (4/3)πr³. If we substitute r = (d/2 where r is the radius and d the diameter), this formula becomes:
πd³
V = (4/3)π·d³/8, or V = -------------
6
and so, if d = 22 cm, the volume is:
π(22 cm)³
V = ------------------- = 5575 cm³

Unfortunately, 15/32 is at its simplest form. There is no common factor between 32 and 15, meaning that the LCM is 15/32.
So, technically 15/32 is still the simplified version of 15/32.
