A sports company has the following production function for a certain product, where p is the number of units produced with x units of labor and y units of capital.
p(x,y)=2500x1/5y1/5
Find:
1. Number of units produced with 26 units of labor and 1333 units of capital.
2. Marginal productivities.
3. Evaluate the marginal productivities at x=25, and y=1333
Answer:
(a) 20226 units
(b) Marginal productivities
[tex]P_x =2500x^{-\frac{4}{5}} & y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
[tex]P_y =2500 x^\frac{1}{5} y^{-\frac{4}{5}}[/tex]
(c) Evaluation of the marginal productivities
[tex]P_x =803[/tex]
[tex]P_y = 15[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]P(x,y) = 2500x^\frac{1}{5}y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Solving (a): P(x,y) when x = 26 and y = 1333
[tex]P(x,y) = 2500x^\frac{1}{5}y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex] becomes
[tex]P(26,1333) = 2500*26^\frac{1}{5}*1333^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
[tex]P(26,1333) = 20226[/tex] --- approximated
Solving (b): The marginal productivities
To do this, we simply calculate Px and Py
Differentiate x to give Px, so we have:
[tex]P(x,y) = 2500x^\frac{1}{5}y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex] becomes
[tex]P_x =2500 * x^{\frac{1}{5}-1} & y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
[tex]P_x =2500 * x^{-\frac{4}{5}} & y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
[tex]P_x =2500x^{-\frac{4}{5}} & y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Differentiate y to give Py, so we have:
[tex]P(x,y) = 2500x^\frac{1}{5}y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex] becomes
[tex]P_y =2500 * x^\frac{1}{5} & y^{\frac{1}{5}-1}[/tex]
[tex]P_y =2500 x^\frac{1}{5} y^{-\frac{4}{5}}[/tex]
Solving (c): Px and Py when x = 25 and y = 1333
[tex]P_x =2500x^{-\frac{4}{5}} & y^\frac{1}{5}[/tex] becomes
[tex]P_x =2500 * 25^{-\frac{4}{5}} * 1333^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
[tex]P_x =803[/tex] --- approximated
[tex]P_y =2500 x^\frac{1}{5} y^{-\frac{4}{5}}[/tex] becomes
[tex]P_y =2500 * 25^\frac{1}{5} * 1333^\frac{-4}{5}[/tex]
[tex]P_y = 15[/tex]

What is the cost, in dollars, of 16 onions if 3 onions weigh 1.5 lb and the price of onions is 33 cents per kilogram
Answer:
The cost of 16 onions is $ 1.20.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine what is the cost, in dollars, of 16 onions if 3 onions weigh 1.5 lb and the price of onions is 33 cents per kilogram, the following calculation must be performed:
1.5 pounds = 0.68 kilos
0.68 / 3 = 0.22666 kilos each onion
16 x 0.22666 = 3.626 kilos
0.33 x 3.626 = 1.20
Therefore, the cost of 16 onions is $ 1.20.

5. A cylindrical pipe is placed in a rectangular trench that is 5m x 4m
and 2.5m deep, is placed across the shorter side of the trench.
5.1 How much volume of cement will be needed to cover this hollow
pipe?
Answer:
The volume (density) of cement that will be needed to cover this hollow pipe is:
= 50,000 kg/m³
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of a cylindrical pipe = 5m
Width of the cylindrical pipe = 4m
Depth of the cylindrical pipe = 2.5m
The cubic meters of the cylindrical pipe = 5 * 4 * 2.5 = 50m³
1 cubic meter is equal to 1,000 kilogram
Therefore, the volume (density) of cement that will be needed to cover this hollow pipe is:
= 50 * 1,000
= 50,000 kg/m³
The reference desk of a university library receives requests for assistance. Assume that a Poisson probability distribution with an arrival rate of 10 requests per hour can be used to describe the arrival pattern and that service times follow an exponential probability distribution with a service rate of 12 requests per hour. What is the probability that no requests for assistance are in the system
Answer:
0.1667
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Arrival rate, λ = 10 requests per hour
Service rate, μ = 12 requests per hour
From queuing theory, we know that;
ρ = λ/μ
Where ρ is the average proportion of time which the server is occupied.
Thus;
ρ = 10/12
ρ = 0.8333
Now, the probability that no requests for assistance are in the system is same as the probability that the system is idle.
This is given by the Formula;
1 - ρ
probability that no requests for assistance are in the system = 1 - 0.8333 = 0.1667
Chloe is working two summer jobs, landscaping and clearing tables. She must work no less than 12 hours altogether between both jobs in a given week. Write an inequality that would represent the possible values for the number of hours landscaping, ll, and the number of hours clearing tables, cc, that Chloe can work in a given week.
Answer:
[tex] L + C \ge 12 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
L = hours landscaping
C = hours clearing tables
The sum of the hours must be no less than 12, so it must be 12 or more.
[tex] L + C \ge 12 [/tex]

The sum of two numbers is 44 . One number is 3 times as large as the other. What are the numbers?
Answer:
11 and 33
Step-by-step explanation:
The the smaller number be [tex]x[/tex]. Since the other number is 3 times as large as the other, we can represent the large number as [tex]3x[/tex]. Because they add up to 44, we have the following equation:
[tex]x+3x=44[/tex]
Combine like terms:
[tex]4x=44[/tex]
Divide both sides by 4:
[tex]x=\frac{44}{4}=\boxed{11}[/tex]
Substitute [tex]x=11[/tex] into [tex]3x[/tex] to find the larger number:
[tex]11\cdot 3=\boxed{33}[/tex]
Therefore, the two numbers are 11 and 33.

how to solve parabola and its vertex, how to understand easily and step by step with an example provided please
Answer:
The general equation for a parabola is:
y = f(x) = a*x^2 + b*x + c
And the vertex of the parabola will be a point (h, k)
Now, let's find the values of h and k in terms of a, b, and c.
First, we have that the vertex will be either at a critical point of the function.
Remember that the critical points are the zeros of the first derivate of the function.
So the critical points are when:
f'(x) = 2*a*x + b = 0
let's solve that for x:
2*a*x = -b
x = -b/(2*a)
this will be the x-value of the vertex, then we have:
h = -b/(2*a)
Now to find the y-value of the vertex, we just evaluate the function in this:
k = f(h) = a*(-b/(2*a))^2 + b*(-b/(2*a)) + c
k = -b/(4*a) - b^2/(2a) + c
So we just found the two components of the vertex in terms of the coefficients of the quadratic function.
Now an example, for:
f(x) = 2*x^2 + 3*x + 4
The values of the vertex are:
h = -b/(2*a) = -3/(2*2) = -3/4
k = -b/(4*a) - b^2/(2a) + c
= -3/(4*2) - (3)^2/(2*2) + 4 = -3/8 - 9/4 + 4 = (-3 - 18 + 32)/8 = 11/8
Solve the given system by the substitution method.

Step-by-step explanation:
the volume of a rectangular pyramid with a length of 7 feet, a width of 6 feet, and a height of 4.5 feet.
Answer:
Volume = 63 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the volume of a cube or a rectangular prism, the formula is
(L x W x H)/3. In other words, it is the length of the prism, times the width of the prism, times the height of the prism, whole divided by three, since it has a "triangular shape."
Let's substitute in values for these letters, L, W, and H. You said the length was 7, the width was 6, and the height was 4.5. Therefore, it will result in
(7 x 6 x 4.5)/3. That results in 189/3, which is 63.

A business woman wants to open a coffee stand across the street from a competing coffee company. She notices that the competing company has an average of 170 customers each day, with a standard deviation of 45 customers. Suppose she takes a random sample of 31 days. Identify the following to help her decide whether to open her coffee stand, rounding to the nearest whole number when necessary:
μ =_____customers per day
σ =_____customers per day
n =____
μ-x =____
σ-x =_____customers per day
Answer:
μ = 170 customers per day
σ = 45 customers per day
n = 31
[tex]\mu_x = 170[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_x = 8[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
She notices that the competing company has an average of 170 customers each day, with a standard deviation of 45 customers.
This means that [tex]\mu = 170, \sigma = 45[/tex]
Suppose she takes a random sample of 31 days.
This means that [tex]n = 31[/tex]
For the sample:
By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean is [tex]\mu_x = 170[/tex] and the standard deviation is [tex]\sigma_x = \frac{45}{\sqrt{31}} = 8[/tex]
Amic and Bernie built a maze for their hamsters. Annic's hamster completed the maze 7 seconds less than twice the time it took Bernie's hamster to complete the maze. If Bernie's hamster completed the maze in b seconds, which expression represents the time, in seconds, it took Annie's hamster to complete the maze?
A. 7-2b
B. 2b-7
c. 2b+7
D. 2b/7
Answer:
2b-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Bernie's hamster completed the maze in b seconds.
Annic's hamster completed the maze 7 seconds less than twice the time it took Bernie's hamster to complete the maze.
Twice the time it took Bernie's hamster to complete the maze is 2b.
7 seconds less than twice the time it took Bernie's hamster = 2b-7
So, the correct option is (b) "2b-7".
In a pen of goats and chickens, there are 40 heads. and 130 feet How many goats and chickens are there?
Answer:
25 goat and 15 chicken
Step-by-step explanation:
Say the number of goats is G, then the number of chickens is 40 - G as there are 40 heads and each chicken and each goat has one head.
The number of feet is 130
So 2(40 - G) + 4G = 130
So 80 - 2G + 4G = 130
2G = 50
G = 25
25 goats and 15 chickens
Which of the following proportions is true?
10/40 = 8/36
8/18 = 6/16
9/15 = 44/50
12/18 = 16/24
Answer:
D. 12/18 = 16/24
Step-by-step explanation:
The method we must go about to solve this is finding the constant. For A, we can solve it by doing 10 divided by 8 (which is 1.25) and then 40 divided by 1.25 to see if it is 36. Alternatively, we can do 10 divided by 8 and then 40 divided by 36 to see if the constant is the same. It's up to you!
My answers:
A. No (constant varies)
B. No (constant varies)
C. No (constant varies)
D. Yes! Constant is 0.75
How to solve for D:
12/16 = 0.75
18/0.75 = 24 OR 18/24 = 0.75
I hope this helps! Please don't hesitate to reach out with more questions!
Hello!
10/40 = 8/36 ?
10 × 36 = 40 × 8
360 = 40 × 8
360 ≠ 320 => 10/40 ≠ 8/36
8/18 = 6/16 ?
8 × 16 = 18 × 6
128 = 18 × 6
128 ≠ 108 => 8/18 ≠ 6/16
9/15 = 44/50 ?
9 × 50 = 15 × 44
450 = 15 × 44
450 ≠ 660 => 9/15 ≠ 44/50
12/18 = 16/24 ?
12 × 24 = 18 × 16
288 = 18 × 16
288 = 288 => 12/18 = 16/24

Which equation represents the line that passes through points (1, –5) and (3, –17)?
Answer:
y = -6x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
b = slope = (-5 - (-17))/(1 - 3) = 12/(-2) = -6
y = -6x + b
-5 = -6(1) + b
b = 1
y = -6x + 1
Answer:
[tex]y=-6x+1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The linear equation with slope m and intercept c is given as follows:
[tex]y=mx+c[/tex]
The formula for slope of line with points [tex](x_{1} ,y_{2} )[/tex] and [tex](x_{2} ,y_{2} )[/tex] can be expressed as,
[tex]m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }[/tex]
The line passes the points that are [tex](1,-5)[/tex] and [tex](3,-17)[/tex]
The slope of the line can be obtained as follows:
[tex]m=\frac{-17-(-5)}{(3)-1}[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{-12}{2}[/tex]
[tex]m=-6[/tex]
The slope of the line is [tex]-6[/tex]
The line passes through the point [tex](3,-17)[/tex]
Substitute 3 for x, - 6 for m and -17 for y in equation [tex]y=mx+c[/tex] to obtain the value of c.
[tex]-17=-6(3)+c[/tex]
[tex]-17=-18+c[/tex]
[tex]-17+18=c[/tex]
[tex]1=c[/tex]
The equation is [tex]y=-6x+1[/tex]
Hence, the equation of the line that passes through the points [tex](1,-5)[/tex] and [tex](3,-17)[/tex] is [tex]y=-6x+1[/tex]

If you draw a card with a value of three or less from a standard deck of cards, I will pay you $41. If not, you pay me $11. (Aces are considered the highest card in the deck). If you played this game 877 times how much would you expect to win or lose?
There are 12 cards with a value ≤ 3 (3 between 1, 2, and 3, and multiply by 4 to count each suit). So the probability of drawing one of these cards and thus winning the game is 12/52 = 3/13.
The expected winnings for playing this game once are
3/13 × ($41) + 10/13 × (-$11) = $1
so after playing 877 times, you can expect to win a total of $877.

angle 1 is congruent to angle 2 prove p is parallel to q
You'll need 2 more lines to complete this two column proof.
---------------------
Line 4
For the "statement" portion, you'll say something like [tex]\angle 2 \cong \angle 3[/tex]
The reason for this statement is "transitive property"
We're basically combining lines 1 and 3 to form this new line.
The transitive property is the idea that if A = B and B = C, then A = C. We connect the statements like a chain.
---------------------
Line 5
The statement is what you want to prove since this is the last line.
So the statement is [tex]p || q[/tex]
The reason is "converse of corresponding angles theorem"
As you can probably guess, this theorem says "If two corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel".
