Expected value E(x) = 0.6(200,000) + 0.2(100,000) - 0.2(200,000) = 120,000 + 20,000 - 40,000 = 100,000
Therefore, the expected value is $100,000, so the company should build the mousetrap.
We are given the function below;

PART A
We then proceed to find if the function has a minimum or maximum value. To find if the function has a minimum or maximum value. If the x^2 coefficient is positive, the function has a minimum. If it is negative, the function has a maximum.
ANSWER: From the above, we can see that x^2 is negative, hence the function has a maximum
PART B and C
To find the minimum or maximum value, we would plot the graph of the f(x). The graph can be seen below.
From the graph, the black point helps answer part A and part B.
ANSWER: The function's maximum value is f(x)=2.
This is the point where the slope of the graph is equal to zero
ANSWER: The maximum value then occurs at x= -1
We can also solve this by differentiating the function.
8×9=72
5×8=40
So the answer is 8
x × 44ft =3564
× = 81
area of the section for a picnic
= 1/2 × 44 × 81
= 1782 ft^2
Answer:
13. 5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a simple proportion problem. Make two fractions where one item is always on the top and the other on the bottom.

Now, cross multiply (multiply the two numbers diagonal from each other and divide the diagonal with the x value)
576 x 3 = 1, 728
1, 728 / 128 = 13.5
