A company knows that if it sets the price of a product at p dollars, the number of units sold will be x million, where p = 2 - x. If the cost of the product is given by 0.25 + 0.5x million dollars. What price should be set to make a profit of $ 0.25 million?

Answers

Answer 1
Two Answers: p = 1.5 or p = 1

====================================================

Explanation:

x = number of products, in millions, sold

p = price per product

R = revenue

R = (number of products sold)*(price per product)

R = x*p

R = x(2-x)

R = 2x-x^2

C = costs

C = 0.25 + 0.5x

F = profit

F = revenue - costs

F = R - C

F = (2x - x^2) - (0.25 + 0.5x)

F = -x^2 + 1.5x - 0.25

We want a profit of 0.25 million, so plug in F = 0.25 and solve for x

F = -x^2 + 1.5x - 0.25

0.25 = -x^2 + 1.5x - 0.25

0 = -x^2 + 1.5x - 0.25 - 0.25

-x^2 + 1.5x - 0.5 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to find the two solutions to be x = 0.5 and x = 1

If x = 0.5, then p = 2-x = 2-0.5 = 1.5

If x = 1, then p = 2-1 = 1

There are two price points  (p = 1.5 and p = 1) that lead to the same profit F = 0.25

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

[tex]3(x+7)-14=22[/tex]

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

[tex]3 ( x + 7 ) - 14 = 22\\(3)^(x) + (3) (7) + - 14 = 22[/tex] (Distribute)

[tex]3x + 21 + -14 = 22[/tex]

[tex]( 3x) + (21 + -14 ) = 22[/tex] (Combine Like Terms)

[tex]3x + 7 = 22\\3x + 7 = 22[/tex]

Step 2: Subtract 7 from both sides.

[tex]3x + 7 - 7 = 22 - 7 \\3x = 15[/tex]

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.

[tex]\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{15}{3} \\x = 5[/tex]

So your answer would be : [tex]\boxed {x = 5}[/tex]

Last week Andi had exams in Chemistry and in Spanish. On the chemistry exam, the mean was µ = 30 with σ = 5, and Andi had a score of X = 45. On the Spanish exam, the mean was µ = 60 with σ = 6 and Andi had a score of X = 65. For which class should Andi expect the better grade?

Answers

Answer:

Chemistry

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the above question, we use the z score formula

Andy took two Exams, Chemistry and Spanish. So we find the z score for both exams.

a) Chemistry Exam

On the chemistry exam, the mean was µ = 30 with σ = 5, and Andi had a score of X = 45

z-score is given as: z = (x-μ)/σ

where x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = (45 - 30)/5

z = 15/5

z = 3

b) On the Spanish exam, the mean was µ = 60 with σ = 6 and Andi had a score of X = 65.

z-score is given as: z = (x-μ)/σ

where x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = (65 - 60)/6

z = 5/6

z = 0.8333333333

Comparing the z score of both Exams,

Andy had a z score of 3 in the Chemistry exam and 0.8333333333 in the Spanish exam.

Therefore, Andy should be expecting a better grade in the Chemistry exam because his z score in the Chemistry exam was higher than that of the Spanish exam.

Answers

The nth term is (n-1)^2

The 4th term is (4-1)^2 = 9

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a geometric sequence is

an = a1 * r^ (n-1)  where a1 is the first term and r is the common ratio

The common ratio is  found by taking the second term and dividing it by the first term

a) 1, 2,4.........

a1 = 1

r = 2/1 = 2

an = 1 * ( 2) ^ (n-1)

Let n = 4

a4 = 1 * 2^ (4-1) = 1 * 2^3 = 8

b)50, 20, 8.........

a1 = 50

r = 50/20= 5/2

an = 50 * ( 5/2) ^ (n-1)

Let n = 4

a4 = 50 * (5/2)^ (4-1) = 50 * (5/2)^3 = 3125/4

According to the graph, what is the value of the constant in the equation
below?
A. 30
B. 72
C. 60
D. 15

Answers

Greetings from Brasil...

As stated in the statement:

HEIGHT = CONSTANT ÷ WIDTH

H = C ÷ W

so, isolating the variable C....

C = H · W

choosing any point on the graph...

(2; 30)  ⇒ W = 2 and H = 30

C = H · W

C = 30 · 2

C = 60

The value of the constant in the equation shown in the figure would be, 60. Hence option C is true.

Given that,

The graph is the relation between Height and width.

As is given in the graph:

Height = Constant / Width

We observe that the graph passes through (2,30), (5,12), (10,6), (30,2)

So, by using any one point we may get the value of constant( since it is a fixed quantity)

Hence, using the point (2,30)

Width = 2

And, Height = 30

So, we get:

Constant = 2 × 30

= 60

Answer:

1229/1764,  1231/1764, 179/252,  1255/1754 and 185/252.

Step-by-step explanation:

(5/6)^2 = 25/36

(6/7)^2 = 36/49

LCM of 36 and 49 is 1764

So 25/36 =   25 * 49 / 1764 = 1225/1764

and 36/49  =   36 * 36 / 1764 = 1296/1764

A1 = area of the rectangle triangle

TG B = OA/AB

AB = OA / TG B

AB = 6 / TG 30

AB = 6√3

A1 = (AB . OA)/2

the product 9f 2 numbers is 16/9 . if one number is 5 /2 find the other number​

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 32/45

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

The product of two numbers is 16/9

That's

x × y = 16/9

One of the numbers is 5/2

That's

y = 5/2

So we have

[tex] \frac{5}{2} x = \frac{16}{9} [/tex]

Multiply through by the LCM

The LCM of 2 and 9 is 18

That's

[tex]18 \times \frac{5}{2} x = \frac{16}{9} \times 18[/tex]

9 × 5x = 16 × 2

45x = 32

Divide both sides by 45

we have the final answer as

Answers

Answer:

The period of the function y = 2×tan x is π

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent function, generally has a period of π radians such that a cycle of the tangent function is completed every π radians

Therefore, where a required number of periods is required to be completed within the π radians range, the number is used to multiply the trigonometric function[ parameter.

From the question, we have;

y = 2×tan x

Which gives the multiplier of the variable x as 1

Two shaded identical rectangular decorative tiles are first placed (one each) at the top and at the base of a door frame for a hobbit's house, as shown in Figure 1. The distance from W to H is 45 inches. Then the same two tiles are rearranged at the top and at the base of the door frame, as shown in Figure 2. The distance from Y to Z is 37 inches. What is the height of the door frame, in inches?

Answers

Answer:

41 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the point at the top of the door on the left be x

Wx + xH = 45

Let the point at the top of the door  on the right be c

Yc + cZ = 37

We know the door is

xH +  plus the width of the tile

The width of the tile is Yc

xH + Yc

On the right door

cZ +  the height of the tile

cZ + Wx

Add the two doors together

xH + Yc + cZ + Wx = 2 times the height of the door

Rewriting

xH +  Wx +  Yc + cZ = 2 times the height of the door

45+ 37 = 2 times the door height

82 = 2 times the door height

Divide by 2

41 = door height

[tex](x-1)^2+(y-2)^2=6.25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a circle is given by:

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]

Where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius.

The center is the red dot, which is (1,2). Thus, h=1 and k=2.

To find the radius, you need to use the distance formula. We are given two coordinates: the center (red dot) at (1,2) and a blue dot on the circle at (2.5,4). Find the radius by using the distance formula:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

Let (1,2) be x₁ and y₁ and let (2.5,4) be x₂ and y₂. Therefore:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(2.5-1)^2+(4-2)^2}\\d=\sqrt{(1.5)^2+2^2}\\d=\sqrt{2.25+4}\\d=\sqrt{6.25}=2.5[/tex]

Thus, r is 2.5.

Plugging these numbers into the equation, we have:

[tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2\\(x-1)^2+(y-2)^2=2.5^2\\(x-1)^2+(y-2)^2=6.25[/tex]
