Answer:

The answer is 5470 grams of lead will be left.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given: </h3>

The half life of lead is 27 minutes

Now,

108/27 = 4

Here, we get the value 4 so, we divide the amount of lead by 4². i.e., 16

Now,

87520/16 = 5470

Thus, After 108 minutes 5470 grams of lead will be left.

The monthly profit for a small company that makes long-sleeve T-shirts depends on the price per shirt. If the price is too high,

Andrej [43]

Answer:

A. $18

B. $200

C. $p\in (16,20)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Function:

$f(p) = -50p^2 + 1,800p - 16,000$

Parts A and B:

The price that generates the maximum profit is ate vertex of parabola. Find the coordinates of the vertex:

$p_v=\dfrac{-b}{2a}=\dfrac{-1,800}{2\cdot (-50)}=\dfrac{1,800}{100}=18\\ \\f(p_v)=-50\cdot 18^2+1,800\cdot 18-16,000=200$

The price that generates the maximum profit is $18

The maximum profit is $200

Part C:

The company breaks even when the profit is positive. From the graph of the function you can see that the graph of the function is over p-axis for all $p\in (16,20)$ , so the positive profit is for $p\in (16,20)$

In p=16 and p=20, the profit is 0 and when p<16 and p>20, there will be a loss.
