The total profit made by an engineering firm is given by the function p=x^2 - 24x +5000 where x is the number of clients the firm has and p is the profit.


1. Find the maximum profit made by the company.

2. How many clients are necessary to reach the profit outlined in part one?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]5144[/tex]

[tex]12[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The function [tex]p=x^2-24x+5000[/tex] is incorrect as its roots are imaginary [tex]b^2-4ac=576-4\times 5000=-19424<0[/tex].

So, the correct function is

[tex]p=-x^2+24x+5000[/tex]

Differentiating with respect to [tex]x[/tex] we get

[tex]p'=-2x+24[/tex]

Equating with zero

[tex]0=-2x+24\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{24}{2}\\\Rightarrow x=12[/tex]

Double derivative of the function

[tex]p''=-2<0[/tex]

So, the function is maximum at [tex]x=12[/tex]

Maximum profit is

[tex]p=-x^2+24x+5000=-12^2+24\times 12+5000\\\Rightarrow p=5144[/tex]

The maximum profit made by the company is [tex]5144[/tex]

The number of clients required to make the maximum profit is [tex]12[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

The x-intercept is [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

The y-intercept is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets find x-intercept:

for y substitute 0

4x+0=12x-1

subtract 4x both sides

0=8x-1

add 1 both sides

1=8x

divide 8 both sides

[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]=x

lets find y-intercept:

for x substitute 0

4(0)+y=12(0)-1

multiply 4(0) and 12(0) which would equal 0 in this case, you dont have to write the 0s.

y=-1

Zachary purchased a computer for $1,400 on a payment plan. Two months after he purchased the computer, his valence was $1,120. Three months after he purchased the computer, his balance was $980. What is an equation that models the balance y after x months?​?

Answers

Answer:

  y = 1400 -140x

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first two months, Zachary paid ...

  1400 -1120 = 280

so 280/2 = 140 per month. This is the amount that the balance decreases each month from the starting balance of $1400.

Zachary's balance (y) can be modeled as ...

What is the length, in centimeters (cm), of y?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean Theorem for a right triangle.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3.6^2 + 4.8^2 = c^2

c = 6cm

The length of y (Hypotenuse) is 6 cm.

We have,

Perpendicular = 3.6 cm

Base = 4.8 cm

Hypotenuse = y

Using Pythagoras theorem

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Perpendicular²

So, y² = 4.8² + 3.6²

y²= 23.04+ 12.96

y²=

y= √36

y= 6 cm

Thus, the value of y (Hypotenuse) is 6 cm.

The city of Gainesville is trying to determine the average price for a gallon of gas. They randomly sampled 28 gas stations and found the sample mean to be $2.58 with a standard deviation of $0.09. Assume that all of the assumptions are met. Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the population mean gas price in Gainesville.

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean gas price in Gainesville is between $2.54 and $2.62.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation of the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 28 - 1 = 27

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 27 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0.52

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.052\frac{0.09}{\sqrt{27}} = 0.04[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is $2.58 - $0.04 = $2.54

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is $2.58 + $0.04 = $2.62.

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean gas price in Gainesville is between $2.54 and $2.62.

On your wedding day you leave for the church 30 minutes before the ceremony is scheduled to start. The church is only 10 miles away, but you have to make an unanticipated stop for construction work on the road. As a result, your average speed for the first 15 minutes is only 5 miles per hour. What average speed do you need to go for the rest of the trip to get to the church on time

Answers

Answer:

You need to have an average speed of at least 35 miles per hour for the rest of the trip to get to the church on time

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the following relation to solve the question:

[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]

In which v is the velocity, d is the distance, and t is the time.

First 15 minutes:

Time of 15 minutes = 0.25 hour, so [tex]t = 0.25[/tex]

Velocity of 5 miles per hour. So the distance is of:

[tex]d = vt = 5*0.25 = 1.25[/tex]

Final 15 minutes:

The will need to drive 10 - 1.25 = 8.75 miles in 15 minutes = 0.25 hours. So, the average speed will need to be of at least:

[tex]v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{8.75}{0.25} = 35[/tex]

You need to have an average speed of at least 35 miles per hour for the rest of the trip to get to the church on time

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are given the table

[tex]\begin\\\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|} &&y \\x &0&1&2&3\\0 &0.13&0.1&0.07&0.03 \\1&0.12&0.16&0.08&0.04\\ 2&0.02&0.06&0.08&0.04\\ 3&0.01&0.02&0.02&0.02\end[/tex]

Generally the marginal probability mass function of X is mathematically given as

[tex]P(x)=\sum P(x,y)>y[/tex]

[tex]\sum P(0)=0.13+0.1+0.07+0.03=0.33\\\sum P(1)=0.12+0.16+0.08+0.04=0.40\\\sum P(2)=0.02+0.06+0.08+0.04=0.20\\\sum P(3)=0.01+0.02+0.02+0.02=0.07[/tex]

Therefore marginal probability mass function of X

Suppose a 99% confidence interval for the mean weight of high school girls in pounds is (102.3, 106.5). If we had measured the weights of each of the girls in kilograms (2.2 pounds = 1 kilogram) then the confidence interval for the mean weight of high school girls in kilograms would have been

Answers

Answer:

The confidence interval for the mean weight of high school girls in kilograms would have been would have been (46.5, 48.41).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the interval, we can just make the conversion of the values from pounds to kilograms.

Each kilogram has 2.2 pounds. So, to realize the conversion from pounds to kilograms, we divide by 2.2.

Confidence interval: (102.3 pounds, 106.5 pounds).

102.3 pounds = 102.3/2.2 = 46.5 kilograms

106.5 pounds = 106.5/2.2 = 48.41 kilograms

The confidence interval for the mean weight of high school girls in kilograms would have been would have been (46.5, 48.41).
