In a company which services air-conditioner units, the revenue,
$r, is given by the equation r = 20x, where x is the number of
units serviced. The operating cost, $c, is given by the equation
c= 3600 + 4x.
The profit, $P, is given by the expression, r — c.
(a) Find a formula for P in terms of x only.
(b) For each of the following cases, find the value of x if
(i) the revenue earned is twice that of the cost,
(ii)the profit earned is $292 more than one third of the revenue
earned.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

p(x) = 16x -3600600 units417 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement gives expressions and relations for revenue, cost, and profit. Substitute and simplify or solve, as appropriate.

__

(a)

Given: r(x) = 20x; c(x) = 3600+4x; p(x) = r(x) -c(x)

The formula for p(x) is ...

  p(x) = (20x) -(3600 +4x) . . . . substitute for r(x) and c(x)

  p(x) = 16x -3600 . . . . . . . . simplify

__

(b-i)

  r(x) = 2·c(x) . . . . given relation for revenue and cost

  20x = 2(3600 +4x) . . . . substitute for each

  12x = 7200 . . . . . . . simplify and subtract 8x

  x = 600 . . . . . . . divide by 12

Revenue is twice the cost when x = 600 units.

__

(b-ii)

  p(x) = 292 +1/3r(x) . . . . given relation for profit and revenue

  16x -3600 = 292 +1/3(20x) . . . . . substitute for each

  28/3x = 3892 . . . . . . . . add 3600 -20/3x

  x = 417 . . . . . . . . multiply by 3/28

Profit is $292 more than 1/3 the revenue earned for 417 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum to n terms of a geometric sequence is

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

here a₁ = - 4 and r = [tex]\frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{24}{-4}[/tex] = - 6 , then

S₈ = [tex]\frac{-4((-6)^{8}-1) }{-6-1}[/tex]

A scatter plot is shown below: if you need an image of it look at the bottom

A graph shows numbers from 0 to 10 on the x axis at increments of 1 and the numbers 0 to 15 on the y axis at increments of 1. The ordered pairs 0, 14 and 1, 11 and 2, 9 and 3, 10 and 4, 7 and 5, 7 and 6, 5 and 7, 5 and 8, 3 and 9, 1 and 10, 0 are shown on the graph.

Which two ordered pairs can be joined to best draw the line of best fit for this scatter plot?

(4, 15) and (10, 7)
(1, 6) and (6, 0)
(0, 13) and (10, 11)
(0, 13) and (10, 0)

Answers

Answer: Choice D.  (0, 13) and (10, 0)

Reason:

If you were to draw a line through the points mentioned in choice A, the line wouldn't be close to the points since (4,15) isn't close to the points. The same goes for (10,7). So we can rule out choice A. Choices B and C are similar stories.

Choice D on the other hand has its line fairly close to all of the points.

Last option

(0,13)

The point will lie at top

(10,0)

The point will lie at bottom

So

both will contain most no of plots so Option D is correct

The area of one face of a cube is 144 square inches.what is the volume of the cube?

Answers

Check the picture below.

[tex](s)(s)=144\implies s^2=144\implies s=\sqrt{144}\implies s=12 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{volume of the cube}}{(s)(s)(s)\implies s^3}\implies 12^3\implies 1728~in^3[/tex]

Answer:

1728 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

→ Area = 144 sq in

Then the length will be,

→ a² = 144

→ a = √144

→ [ a = 12 ]

Formula we use,

→ V = a³

Now required volume will be,

→ a³ = 12³

→ 12 × 12 × 12

→ 1728 in³

Hence, the volume is 1728 in³.

A hyperbola has its foci at (1, 7) and (1, –13). a directrix of the hyperbola is y = . what is the equation of the hyperbola?

Answers

The equation of the hyperbola is [tex]\frac{(y + 3)^2}{64} -\frac{(x - 1)^2}{36} = 1[/tex]

How to determine the hyperbola equation?

The foci are given as:

(1, 7) and (1, -13)

The foci of a hyperbola are represented using: (m, n+p) and (m, n-p)

Where the center of the hyperbola is (n,p)

By comparison, we have:

m = 1

n + p = 7

n - p =13

Where n = ae

The solution to the above system of equations is

m = 1, n = 10 and p = -3

The directrix is given as:

y = 64/10

The directrix is represented as:

y = a/e

So, we have:

a/e = 64/10

Substitute n = ae in n = 10

ae = 10

Solving ae = 10 and a/e = 64/10, we have:

a = 8 and e = 10/8

To calculate b, we make use of:

[tex]b = a\sqrt{(e^2 - 1)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]b = 8\sqrt{(\frac{10}{8}^2 - 1)[/tex]

Evaluate

b = 8 * 0.75

b = 6

The equation of the hyperbola is then calculated using:

[tex]\frac{(y - p)^2}{a^2} -\frac{(x - m)^2}{b^2} = 1[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\frac{(y + 3)^2}{8^2} -\frac{(x - 1)^2}{6^2} = 1[/tex]

Evaluate

[tex]\frac{(y + 3)^2}{64} -\frac{(x - 1)^2}{36} = 1[/tex]

Hence, the equation of the hyperbola is [tex]\frac{(y + 3)^2}{64} -\frac{(x - 1)^2}{36} = 1[/tex]
