Answer:
In order to maximize profit, the company should sell each widget at $22.68.
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of profit y made by the company for selling widgets at x price is given by the equation:
[tex]y=-34x^2+1542x-10037[/tex]
And we want to find to price for which the company should sell in order to maximize the profit.
Since our equation is a quadratic with a negative leading coefficient, its maximum will occur at the vertex point.
The vertex of a quadratic is given by the formulas:
[tex]\displaystyle \text{Vertex}=\left(-\frac{b}{2a}, f\left(-\frac{b}{2a}\right)\right)[/tex]
In this case, a = -34, b = 1542, and c = -10037.
Find the x-coordinate of the vertex:
[tex]\displaystyle x=-\frac{(1542)}{2(-34)}=\frac{771}{34}\approx \$22.68[/tex]
So, in order to maximize profit, the company should sell each widget at $22.68.
Extra Notes:
In order to find the maximum profit, substitute the price back into the equation:
[tex]\displaystyle y\left(\frac{771}{34}\right)\approx\$7446.56[/tex]

A company plans to reduce the amount of energy used each year. This table shows the company's plan.
Answer:
the anserw would be B
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship that explains the exponential relationship between the year and amount of energy used is: Option B: The amount of energy used decreases by different amount each year.
What is the rate of exponential function?Rate of an exponential function is in terms of exponential function itself. It's not constant, and always changing. For example, the rate of [tex]y = e^x[/tex] with respect to x is [tex]y' = e^x[/tex] itself, which increases as x increases.
The given table is:
Year(Serial no.) Amount of energy used (kWh)
1 1,000,000
2 900,000
3 810,000
4 792,000
The differences between each consequent years of the amount of energy used is:
1000000 - 900000 = 100000
900000 - 810000 = 90000
810000 - 792000 = 18000
So, we see that the decrement is done by decreasing amount.
So rate of change wasn't constant but continuosly changing.
Thus, Option C is clearly wrong.
We see that 100,000 is 10% of 1,000,000
and 90,000 is 10% of next years amount 900,000
but 18,000 is not 10% of next years amount which is 810,000
Thus, Option A is wrong too.
Option B is correct in its statement, and so as option D because we don't see any immediate pattern in the decrement, except that the energy is just decreasing, so its unexpected.
The rate of exponentially related variables is not unexpected though.
So, its only Option B which is closest (among other options) to the intention of telling that the relation between the year and the amount of energy used is exponential, although it doesn't prove that the relationship is exponential. (because, suppose the function i take is [tex]y = x^2[/tex], then its rate with respect to x is [tex]y' = 2x[/tex] and this rate is also non-constant, but the function wasn't exponential).
Thus, the relationship that explains the exponential relationship between the year and amount of energy used is: Option B: The amount of energy used decreases by different amount each year.

A city has a population of 340,000 people. Suppose that each year the population grows by 5.25%. What will the population be after 15 years?
Answer:
Future population = 720800
Step-by-step explanation:
Below is the calculation of population after 15 years.
Given the present population = 340000
Growth in population = 5.25%
Use below formula to find the values:
Future population = Present population ( 1 + r)^n
Future population = 340000 ( 1 + 5.25%)^15
Future population = 340000 (2.15)
Future population = 720800

Answer:
Arc AB = 110
Step-by-step explanation:
<C = 55 degrees. That's the way the triangle is marked. AB = BC.
The central angle is twice the angle made by the end points of line AB
The central angle = 2*55 = 110
The measure of arc AB equals the central angle which makes arc AB = 110
find the slope of a line parallel to given line.
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
If lines are parallel to each other, they will never touch so the slope will be the same.
So if the first line is already given in slope intercept form, that means the -3 is the slope.
So a line parallel to this would have the slope -3 and start at a different place on the y axis.

Find an equation of the circle whose diameter has endpoints (6,4) and (2,-6)
Answer:
[tex](x-4)^2+(y+1)^2=29[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find a circle whose diameter has the endpoints (6, 4) and (2, -6).
Since this is the diameter, its midpoint will be the center of the circle. Find the midpoint:
[tex]\displaystyle M=\left(\frac{6+2}{2}, \frac{4+(-6)}2}\right)=(4, -1)[/tex]
So, the center of our circle is (4, -1).
Next, to find the radius, we can find the length of the diameter and divide it by half.
Using the distance formula, find the length of the diameter:
[tex]\begin{aligned} d&=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\\\ &=\sqrt{(2-6)^2+(-6-4)^2}\\\\&=\sqrt{(4)^2+(-10)^2}\\\\&=\sqrt{116}\\\\&=2\sqrt{29}\end{aligned}[/tex]
So, the radius will be:
[tex]\displaystyle r=\frac{1}{2}d=\frac{1}{2}\left(2\sqrt{29}\right)=\sqrt{29}[/tex]
The equation for a circle is given by:
[tex]\displaystyle (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex]
Substitute:
[tex](x-4)^2+(y+1)^2=29[/tex]

total of our four ages is 116 years.
a) Write an equation to show this.
y + 3y + (y - 2) + 4(y - 2) = 116
b) Solve the equation.
distribute

Answer:
b = 7.14cm
Step-by-step explanation:
For this question, we need to use the pythagorean theorem, since it is a right triangle, and we know two sides. The formula for the Pythagorean theorem is c^2 = a^2 + b^2.
1. a = 5.8cm so a^2 will be 5.8 x 5.8 which is 33.64
2. c = 9.2cm so c^2 will be 9.2 x 9.2 which is 84.64
3. If we add these to our Pythagorean equation, it will be 84.64 = 33.64 + b^2. --> 51 = b^2 --> b = 7.141428....
4. Since we need to round it to two decimal places, b will be 7.14.
