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].

The sum of three consecutive even integers is 486. find all three integers​

Answers

160 and 162 and 164

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the three even integers, use the equation

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 486

Then solve:

Add the common terms (the xs and numbers)

3x + 6 = 486

Subtract the 6 from both sides

3x = 480

Then divide

x = 160

So 160 + (160 + 2) + (160 + 4) = 486

160 + 162 + 164 = 486

So your three consecutive even integers are

Explain: count all the items in the list then count the caps and yo-yos together.
That’ll be 6/8 which is 75%
75% because there is 6/8 you will get the yo yo or the other one. so you put 6/8 = ?/100. you multiply 100 with 6 then divide 600 with 8

Step-by-step explanation: Because there are 60 people in all and 16 had blond hair, 20 had black hair and 3 had red hair and 60-16-20-3=39 then you have to take 60-39 and you get 21

Let N* be the total number of ranchers in Uruguay, and N(t) be the number of ranchers who have adopted an improved pasture technology there. Assume that the rate of adoption, , is proportional to both the number who have adopted the technology and the fraction of the ranchers who have not (and so are susceptible to conversion). Let a be the proportionality constant.

a. Write down the differential equation modeling N(t).
b. According to Banks (1993), N* = 17000, N(0) = 170, a = 0.5 per year.

Determine how long it takes for the improved pasture technology to spread to 80% of the population of the ranchers.

Answers

Answer:

A) dN / dt = aN( N* - N ) /N*

B) 12 years

Step-by-step explanation:

attached below is a detailed description of the solution

A) Write down the differential equation modelling N(t)

The differential equation of the modelling = dN / dt = aN( N* - N ) /N*

The answer of probability that the garment Iman chooses is pink or a blue shirt is 1/2

What is Probability ?

Probability means possibility.

It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event.

The value is expressed from zero to one.  

The meaning of probability is basically the extent to which something is likely to happen.

Divide the number of events by the number of possible outcomes. This will give us the probability of a single event occurring.

In this case Iman has 2 choices pink or blue

So the probability that the garment Iman chooses is pink or a  blue shirt

is  1/2 .

Answer:

2/5.

Step-by-step explanation:Start with fractions for which you need to find the product. In this example, we will multiply the fractions 4/6 and 3/5.

Simplify the fractions to the lowest terms. A fraction needs to be simplified if the same number can divide both the numerator and denominator of a fraction. So 4/6 would become 2/3 and you would multiply by 3/5.

Multiply the numerators. Multiply the top number in one fraction by the top number in the other fraction. In this case 2 x 3 = 6.

Multiply the denominators. Multiply the bottom number of one fraction by the bottom number in the other fraction. In this case 3 x 5 = 15

Simplify the product again if necessary. Your product of 6/15 can be converted into 2/5 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 3. So the product of 4/6 and 3/5
