Complete Question:
A soft-drink vendor at a popular beach analyzes his sales records, and finds that if he sells x cans of soda pop in one day, his profit (in dollars) is given by P(x) = -0.001x² + 3x - 1800.
a. What is his maximum profit per day?
b. How many cans must be sold in order to obtain the maximum profit?
Answer:
a. $450
b. 1500 cans
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following quadratic function;
P(x) = -0.001x² + 3x - 1800 ......equation 1
a. To find his maximum profit per day;
Since P(x) is a quadratic equation, P(x) would be maximum when [tex] x = \frac {-b}{2a} [/tex]
Note : the standard form of a quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c = 0 ......equation 2
Comparing eqn 1 and eqn 2, we have;
a = -0.001, b = 3 and c = -1800
Now, we determine the maximum profit;
[tex] x = \frac {-b}{2a} [/tex]
Substituting the values, we have;
[tex] x = \frac {-3}{2*(-0.001)} [/tex]
Cancelling out the negative signs, we have;
[tex] x = \frac {3}{2*0.001} [/tex]
[tex] x = \frac {3}{0.002} [/tex]
x at maximum = 1500
Substituting the value of "x" into equation 1;
P(1500) = -0.001 * 1500² + 3(1500) - 1800
P(1500) = -0.001 * 2250000 + 4500 - 1800
P(1500) = -2250 + 2700
P(1500) = $450
b. Therefore, the soft-drink vendor must sell 1500 cans in order to obtain the maximum profit.
Purpose: The purpose of this learning activity is to demonstrate the understanding of correlation and regression and how they could be important in your future practice. Instructions: Submit 1 paragraph answering the following questions: • What are the differences between results that demonstrate a correlation between two variables and results where a regression is run using two variables? • Think about your future clinical role and provide a clinical example of variables that you may want a correlation analysis run and explain. • Think about your future clinical role and provide a clinical example of variables that you may want a regression analysis run and explain.
Answer:
A correlation shows strength and regression tells the pattern.
Step-by-step explanation:
• The differences between the results that demonstrate a correlation between two variables and results where a regression is run using two variables are as follows
1) the correlation is the measure of degree to which any two variables may vary together.
2) if both variables tend to increase or decrease together the correlation is said to be direct or positive.
3) the correlation gives the strength of relationship between two quantities
4) The regression gives the relationship in the form of an equation.
5) The regression investigates the dependence of the dependent variable on the independent variable.
6) it shows the relationship whether it is linear or curved or parabolic etc.
• I may record the ages and the blood pressure of the patients and run a correlation analysis which may not be positive as blood pressure does not always increase with age
• I may record the ages and the blood pressure of the patients and may want to run a regression analysis which will show the relationship of the patients suffering from high blood pressure and their ages whether it follows a similar pattern or not.

The travel time on a section of a Long Island Expressway (LIE) is normally distributed with a mean of 80 seconds and a standard deviation of 6 seconds. What travel time separates the top 2.5% of the travel times from the rest
Answer:
The travel time that separates the top 2.5% of the travel times from the rest is of 91.76 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Mean of 80 seconds and a standard deviation of 6 seconds.
This means that [tex]\mu = 80, \sigma = 6[/tex]
What travel time separates the top 2.5% of the travel times from the rest?
This is the 100 - 2.5 = 97.5th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.975, so X when Z = 1.96.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]1.96 = \frac{X - 80}{6}[/tex]
[tex]X - 80 = 6*1.96[/tex]
[tex]X = 91.76[/tex]
The travel time that separates the top 2.5% of the travel times from the rest is of 91.76 seconds.
Josue leans a 26-foot ladder against a wall so that it forms an
angle of 80° with the ground. How high up the wall does the
ladder reach? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a
foot if necessary.
Answer:
25.61 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can draw a picture (see attached picture). With the wall representing the rightmost line, and the ground representing the bottom line, the ladder (the hypotenuse) forms a 80 degree angle with the ground and the wall and ground form a 90 degree angle.
Without solving for other angles, we know one angle and the hypotenuse, and want to find the opposite side of the angle.
One formula that encompasses this is sin(x) = opposite/hypotenuse, with x being 80 degrees and the hypotenuse being 26 feet. We thus have
sin(80°) = opposite / 26 feet
multiply both sides by 26 feet
sin(80°) * 26 feet = opposite
= 25.61 feet as the height of the wall the ladder reaches
The height of the wall does the ladder reach to the nearest hundredth of the foot is 25.61 feet.
What is a right-angle triangle?It is a type of triangle in which one angle is 90 degrees and it follows the Pythagoras theorem and we can use the trigonometry function. The Pythagoras is the sum of the square of two sides is equal to the square of the longest side.
Josue leans a 26 feet ladder against a wall so that it forms an angle of 80° with the ground.
The condition is shown in the diagram.
Then the height of the wall will be
[tex]\rm \dfrac{h }{26 } = sin 80 \\\\h \ \ = 26 \times sin 80\\\\h \ \ = 25.61 \ ft[/tex]

the length of a rectangle is twice its width the perimeter is 48 cm what are the dimensions of the rectangle
Answer:
The length=16cm and the width=8cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the length is twice the breadth or width of the rectangle
Let's assume that the breadth of the rectangle is x.
Thus the length is 2x.
Given perimeter=48cm
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2(l+b) where l is length and b is breadth.
2(x+2x)=48
(3x)=48/2
3x=24
x=8cm
2x=16cm
Step-by-step explanation:
length=2x
width=x
2x+x+2x+x=48
6x=48
6x÷6=48÷6
x=8
length=16
width=8
Miller's Steakhouse offers 8 side dishes, 5 types of steak, and 4 toppings. How many different smothered steak dinners can be made if a smothered steak dinner consists of the customer's choice of steak served with 3 different toppings and 3 different side dishes?
Answer:
1120
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the possible number of steak dinners, you would multiply the number of choices for each part of the dinner. You would used combinations instead of permutations since the order of the toppings chosen or side dishes chosen do not matter. There are 5 choose 1 choices for types of steak, which is just 5. There are 8 choose 3 choices for side dishes, which is 56. There are 4 choose 3 choices for toppings, which is 4. 5*56*4 is 1120, so there are 1120 possible steak dinners.
The surface area of a melting snowball decreases at a rate of3.8cm2/min. Find the rate at which its diameter decreases when the diameter is13cm. (Round your answer to three decimal places if required)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a pretty basic related rates problem. I'm going to go through this just like I do in class when I'm teaching it to my students.
We see we have a snowball, which is a sphere. We are talking about the surface area of this sphere which has a formula of
[tex]S=4\pi r^2[/tex]
In the problem we are given diameter, not radius. What we know about the relationship between a radius and a diameter is that
d = 2r so
[tex]\frac{d}{2}=r[/tex] Now we can have the equation in terms of diameter instead of radius. Rewriting:
[tex]S=4\pi(\frac{d}{2})^2[/tex] which simplifies to
[tex]S=4\pi(\frac{d^2}{4})[/tex] and a bit more to
[tex]S=\pi d^2[/tex] (the 4's cancel out by division). Now that is a simple equation for which we have to find the derivative with respect to time.
[tex]\frac{dS}{dt}=\pi*2d\frac{dD}{dt}[/tex] Now let's look at the problem and see what we are given as far as information.
The rate at which the surface area changes is -3.8, and we are looking for [tex]\frac{dD}{dt}[/tex], the rate at which the diameter is changing, when the diameter is 13. Filling in:
[tex]-3.8=\pi(2)(13)\frac{dD}{dt}[/tex] and solving for the rate at which the diameter is changing:
[tex]-\frac{3.8}{26\pi}=\frac{dD}{dt}[/tex] and divide to get
[tex]\frac{dD}{dt}=-.459\frac{cm}{min}[/tex] Obviously, the negative means that the diameter is decreasing.

G. Find the ratio between a pen and pencil if ten pens cost $22.5 and a dozen pencils cost $18.
Answer:
Cost ratio of pens:pencils = 9 : 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Pen : Pencil
10/10 : 12/12
22.5 / 10 : 18 / 12
2.25 : 1.5 cost per pen : pencil
HC of 0.25 and 0.5 is 8
8 x 2.25 = 18:
1.5 x 8 = 12
Then place them under their denominator x 10 x 12
pens = 18/10 = 1.8
pencils = 12/12 = 1
HC of 1.8 and 1 is 5
1.8 x 5 = 9
1 x 5 = 5
Answer = 9 : 4

The mortgage on your new house is $180,000. Your monthly mortgage payment is $839 for 30 years. How much interest will be paid if the house is kept for the full 30 years?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
$122,040
Step-by-step explanation:
The interest is the difference between the mortgage value and the total amount paid.
($839/mo)×(12 mo/yr)×(30 yr) -180,000 = $302,400 -180,000 = $122,040
$122,040 will be paid in interest.
Consider a uniform density curve defined from x = 0 to x = 8. What percent of observations fall between 1 and 5?
a) 0.20
b) 0.50
c) 0.62
d) 0.13
e) 0.63
f) None of the above
Answer: 0.50, which is choice b
Explanation:
The interval [tex]1 \le x \le 5[/tex] covers 5-1 = 4 units in the horizontal direction.
This is out of 8 units that span from x = 0 to x = 8 (we could say 8-0 = 8).
So we get the final result of 4/8 = 0.50
In other words, the interval from x = 1 to x = 5 covers exactly half of the interval from x = 0 to x = 8.

The perimeter (P)
This is calculated as:
[tex]P = 2 *(L + W)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]P = 2 *(5k - m + 7k -2m)[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]P = 2 *(5k + 7k- m -2m)[/tex]
[tex]P = 2 *(12k-3m)[/tex]

Find the exact value of the logarithm without using a calculator.
Answer:
1/11
Step-by-step explanation:
We are asked to find the natural log of
[tex] \sqrt[11]{e} [/tex]
Convert to fractional exponent
[tex] ln(e {}^{ \frac{1}{11} } ) [/tex]
Apply Log of Power rule
[tex] \frac{1}{11} ln(e) [/tex]
Natural log of e is 1 so
[tex] \frac{1}{11} \times 1 = \frac{1}{11} [/tex]
Answer:
[tex]\frac{1}{11}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First, remember that the ln function is just a log function with a base of e. Here's how it looks
[tex]ln(x) =log_{e}(x)[/tex]
[tex]ln(\sqrt[11]{e} ) = log_{e}(\sqrt[11]{e} )[/tex]
We can take this one step further if we realize that we can rewrite the square root as a simple power to a fraction!
[tex]log_{e}(e^{\frac{1}{11} } )[/tex]
Solving the equation above is really simple. All that function is really saying is can we raise e to some number, where the result would be e^(1/11)? In other words find x.
[tex]e^{x} = e^{\frac{1}{11} }[/tex]
Well x has to be 1/11 in that case. And that ends up being our final answer.
[tex]log_{e}(e^{\frac{1}{11} } ) = \frac{1}{11}[/tex]
