This is incorrect, because 2/3 equals to 4/6
4/6 is greater than 1/6
therefore his conclusion is incorrect

The power generated by an electrical circuit (in watts) as a function of its current x xx (in amperes) is modeled by P ( x ) = −
marysya [2.9K]

Given:

The power generated by an electrical circuit (in watts) as a function of its current x (in amperes) is modeled by

P(x)=-15x(x-8)

To find:

The current which will produce the maximum power.

Solution:

We have,

P(x)=-15x(x-8)

P(x)=-15x^2+120x

Differentiate with respect to x.

P'(x)=-15(2x)+120(1)

P'(x)=-30x+120      ...(i)

To find the extreme point equate P'(x)=0.

-30x+120=0

-30x=-120

Divide both sides by -30.

x=4

Differentiate (i) with respect to x.

P'(x)=-30(1)+(0)

P'(x)=-30 (Maximum)

It means, the given function is maximum at x=4.

Therefore, the current of 4 amperes will produce the maximum power.

Georgia ,a florist,charges $10 per flower bundle plus a$15 delivery charge per order what is the slopes​
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

  • <em><u>The slope is $ 10 per flower bundle.</u></em>

Explanation:

The <em>slope</em> of a linear function is the ratio of the change in the dependent variable over the change in the independent variable.

In the problem, the independent variable is the number of flower bundles and the dependent variable is the amount charged.

If you call n the number of flower bundles and c(n) the amount charged per order, the amount charged per order is modeled by linear function:

  • c(n) = 10n + 15

Where, 10 is the amount charged in dolars per flower bundle, and 15 is the delivery charge per order.

Then, for every increment in the number of flower bundles (n) the amount charged will increase in $ 10. That is the slope

  • slope = $ 10 / flower bundle.

Determine the greatest common factor of 28xy^9z and 32x^2y^7z
RSB [31]

Answer:

GCF = 4xy⁷z

Step-by-step explanation:

Do Prime Factorizations for each term and select only those terms common to each:

28xy⁹z = 2·2·7·x·y·y·y·y·y·y·y·y·y·z

32x²y⁷z = 2·2·2·2·2·x·x·y·y·y·y·y·y·y·z

GCF = 2·2·x·y·y·y·y·y·y·y·z

GCF = 4xy⁷z

Find the error &amp; explain why it is wrong:
ICE Princess25 [194]

Step b is wrong. The slope is the change in y over the change in x.

Step b should be (18- 8)/( 10-6)

= 10/4

= 5/2
