R(x) =

(b) Your Internet provider charges you a monthly fee of $30 to maintain your site. Express your monthly profit Pas a function of the log-on fee x.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)[tex]R(x)=-520x^2+2600x[/tex]

b)[tex]P(x)=-520x^2+2600x-30[/tex]

c)x=2.5

d)P(x)=3220

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Demand function be  D=Ax+B

We are given that  When you charged $4 the demand was 520 log-ons per month

So, D = 520 , x = 4

So, 520=4A+B  ----1

We are also given that When you lowered the price to $3.50, the demand increased to 780 log-ons per month.

So, D=780 , x = 3.50

So, 780=3.5A+B ----2

Substract 2 form 1

4A+B-3.5A-B=520-780

0.5A=-260

[tex]A=\frac{-260}{0.5}[/tex]

A=-520

Substitute value of A in 2

780=3.5(-520)+B

780-3.5(-520)=B

2600=B

So, D=-520x+2600

Revenue = Demand (x)=(-520x+2600)(x)

a) [tex]R(x)=-520x^2+2600x[/tex]

b) Profit = Revenue - cost

[tex]P(x)=-520x^2+2600x-30[/tex]

c)to obtain the largest possible monthly profit.

Equate the first derivative of profit to 0

P'(x)=-1040x+2600=0

[tex]x=\frac{2600}{1040}[/tex]

x=2.5

d)Now to find  the largest possible monthly profit

Substitute x = 2.5 in Profit function

[tex]P(x)=-520(2.5)^2+2600(2.5)-30[/tex]

P(x)=3220

Answers

After 500 years one would have N nuclei of the original substance.

I guess it is exp( - lamda * t)

Lamda, the decay constant is the ln(2) over the half life.

Divide Rational Expressions
In the following exercises, divide.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \mathbf{\frac{5}{(c+4)}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Division of Rational Expressions

When dividing two rational expressions like f(c) / g(c), it's usually easier to multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator: f(c) * (1/g(c)). The reciprocal is just flipping the numerator and the denominator.

Let's find the following division:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\frac{c^2-64}{3c^2+26c+16}} {\frac{c^2-4c-32}{15c+10}}[/tex]

First, we factor the polynomials where possible.

[tex]c^2-64 = (c-8)(c+8)[/tex]

[tex]3c^2+26c+16=(3c+2)(c+8)[/tex]

[tex]c^2-4c-32=(c-8)(c+4)[/tex]

[tex]15c+10=5(3c+2)[/tex]

Substituting:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\frac{c^2-64}{3c^2+26c+16}} {\frac{c^2-4c-32}{15c+10}}=\frac{\frac{(c-8)(c+8)}{(3c+2)(c+8)}} {\frac{(c-8)(c+4)}{5(3c+2)}}[/tex]

Multiplying by the reciprocal of the denominator:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\frac{c^2-64}{3c^2+26c+16}} {\frac{c^2-4c-32}{15c+10}}=\frac{(c-8)(c+8)}{(3c+2)(c+8)}\cdot \frac{5(3c+2)}{(c-8)(c+4)}[/tex]

Simplifying by (c+8)(3c+2)(c-8):

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\frac{c^2-64}{3c^2+26c+16}} {\frac{c^2-4c-32}{15c+10}}=\frac{5}{(c+4)}[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \mathbf{\mathbf{\frac{5}{(c+4)}}}[/tex]

An airplane flying with the wind takes 2 hours to travel a distance of 360 miles.

The return trip takes 3 hours flying against the wind.

What is the speed of the airplane in still air and how fast is the wind blowing?

Answers

Answer: still air is 150mph. The wind speed is 30mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

X=speed of the plane, Y=speed of the wind.

360/2hours=180

360/3hours=120

2x=180+120

2x=300

X=150

The airplane in still air is 150mph

Add together

X+y=180

150+y=180

Y=180-150

Y=30mph

The wind speed is 30mph

A triangle has two sides of length 5 and 11. What is the smallest possible whole-number

Answers

The smallest possible whole number length for the third side is 7

Data obtained from the question1st length = 52nd length = 113rd length =?

How to determine the smallest possible length of the 3rd side

Case 1

1st + 2nd > 3rd

5 + 11 > 3rd

16 > 3rd

3rd length < 16

Case 2

1st + 3rd > 2nd

5 + 3rd > 11

3rd > 11 - 5

3rd > 6

Thus, we have

6 < 3rd length < 16

Since the 3rd length is greater than 6, then the smallest possible length for the 3rd side is 7

james went out for a long walk . He walked 3 2/5 of the mile. then he sat down to take rest . After that he walked 5/7 of a mile. how far did he walk together

Answers

Answer:

Altogether James walked [tex]4\frac{4}{35}[/tex] miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question involves mixed fractions. Mixed fractions are first converted into proper fractions and then any operation can be performed on them.

Given

Distance of first walk = [tex]3\frac{2}{5}[/tex] of a mile

Distance of second walk = 5/7

In order to find how much he walked altogether, we have to find the sum of both fractions.

[tex]Total\ distance = 3\frac{2}{5}+\frac{5}{7}\\= \frac{17}{5}+\frac{5}{7}\\=\frac{17*7}{5*7} + \frac{5*5}{7*5}\\=\frac{119}{35} + \frac{25}{35}\\=\frac{119+25}{35}\\=\frac{144}{35}\\=4\frac{4}{35}[/tex]

Hence,

Altogether James walked [tex]4\frac{4}{35}[/tex] miles.
