An ice cream shop finds that its weekly profit P (measured in dollars) as a function of the price x (measured in dollars) it charges per ice cream cone is given by the function k, defined by k(x) = 125x^2 +670x 125 where P= k(x).

Required:
a. Determine the maximum weekly profit and the price of an ice cream cone that produces that maximum profit
b. The cost of the ice cream cone is too low then the ice cream shop will not make a profit. Determine what the ice cream shop needs to charge in order to break even
c. The profit function for Cold & Creamy (another ice cream shop) is defined by the function g where gx)- k(x-2). Does the function g have at the same maximum value as k?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that k(x) = -125x² +670x - 125, where x is the charge per cone and P = k(x) is the weekly profit

a) The maximum profit is at P'(x) = 0. Therefore we have to find the derivative of the profit equation and equate it to 0.

P'(x) = k'(x) = 0

k'(x) = -250x + 670 = 0

-250x + 670 = 0

250x = 670

x = $2.68

P = k(2.68) = -125(2.68²) + 670(2.68) - 125 = $772.8

Hence the maximum profit is $772.8 when the price of each ice cream cone is $2.68

b) At break even, the profit is 0. Hence P= k(x) = 0

-125x² + 670x - 125 = 0

x = 5.17 or x = 0.19

Therefore to break even, the price of the ice cream cone needs to be $0.19 or $5.17

c) g(x) = k(x - 2)

g(x) = -125(x - 2)² + 670 (x -2) - 125

Maximum profit is at g'(x) = 0

g'(x) = -250(x-2) + 670

-250(x-2) + 670 = 0

-250x + 500 + 670 = 0

250x = 1170

x = 4.68

g(4.68) = -125(4.68 - 2)² + 670(4.68 -2) - 125 = $772.8

Therefore function g has the same maximum value as function k

Answer:

y=60 degrees ; x=120 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles' angles must add up to 180 degrees. An equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides and degrees. If it gives the angle of one all the other angles are the same. For x you see the parallel line below it with the line to the left going through with the same angle as the one below. The angles are the same and if it is labeled in one then it is the same in the other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the solution diagram drawn :

We have a right angled triangle, the distance between Walmart mad chick-FIL is a measure of the hypotenus of the right angled triangle ;

The hypotenus, = √(opposite² + adjacent²)

Hypotenus = √6² + 6²

Hypotenus = √36 * 2 = √36 * √2 = 6√2 miles

There were 436 tickets purchased for a major league baseball game. The general admission tickets cost ​$6.50 and the upper reserved tickets cost ​$8.00. The total amount of money spent was ​$3284.00. How many of each kind of ticket were​ purchased?
How many general admission tickets were​ purchased? ____
How many upper reserved tickets we purchased? ___

Answers

Answer:

136 general admission tickets were​ purchased, and 300 upper reserved tickets were purchased.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved using a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of general admission tickets purchased.

y is the number of reserved tickets purchased.

There were 436 tickets purchased for a major league baseball game.

This means that [tex]x + y = 436[/tex], or also, [tex]x = 436-y[/tex]

The general admission tickets cost ​$6.50 and the upper reserved tickets cost ​$8.00. The total amount of money spent was ​$3284.00.

This means that [tex]6.5x + 8y = 3284[/tex]. Since [tex]x = 436-y[/tex]

[tex]6.5(436-y) + 8y = 3284[/tex]

[tex]1.5y = 450[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{450}{1.5}[/tex]

[tex]y = 300[/tex]

And:

[tex]x = 436 - y = 436 - 300 = 136[/tex]

136 general admission tickets were​ purchased, and 300 upper reserved tickets were purchased.

O A. City A experienced a bigger temperature change than City B.
O B. City B experienced a bigger temperature change than City A.
O C. The low temperature in City B was lower than the low temperature in City A.
O D. Both B and C are true.

Answers

Answer:

City B experienced a bigger temperature change than City A.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph of the temperature given, using visual inspection, we can see how the graph of both cuties change, for city A, the change in temperature, very low as the highest temperature is about 80 and the lowest temperature value is about 76 ;

However. For city B, the highest temperature value is about 100 and the lowest is about 76

Hence, City B experienced a bigger temperature change than A.

For low temperature, the low temperature in city A and B are the same with a value of about 76°

In a sample of 400 students, 60% of them prefer eBooks.

A.Find 98% Confidence Interval for the proportion of all students that prefer ebooksb.

b. Find the margin of erro

Answers

Answer:

a) The 98% Confidence Interval for the proportion of all students that prefer ebooks is (0.55, 0.65).

b) The margin of error is of 0.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is of:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In a sample of 400 students, 60% of them prefer eBooks.

This means that [tex]n = 400, \pi = 0.6[/tex]

98% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.02[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.054[/tex].

Margin of error -> Question b:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 2.054\sqrt{0.6*0.4}{400}}[/tex]

[tex]M = 0.05[/tex]

The margin of error is of 0.05.

A.Find 98% Confidence Interval for the proportion of all students that prefer ebooksb.

Sample proportion plus/minus the margin of error.

0.6 - 0.05 = 0.55

0.6 + 0.05 = 0.65

The 98% Confidence Interval for the proportion of all students that prefer ebooks is (0.55, 0.65).

Answers

Answer:

0.1824

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the decay factor is as follows;

= (1 - decrease percentage) × (1 - decrease percentage) × (1 - decrease percentage)

= (1 - 0.2) × (1 - 0.4) × (1 - 0.62)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]n = 67[/tex] --- not -67

[tex]d = 8[/tex]

Required

[tex]67 = 8 * q + r[/tex]

[tex]67 = 8q + r[/tex]

Make q the subject

[tex]q = \frac{67 - r}{8}[/tex]

[tex]0 \le r < d[/tex] means that r is less than 8 but greater than or equal to 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Poisson process with an average of 3 logons per minute.

[tex]E(X) = \frac{1}{\lambda}[/tex]
