The cost function in a computer manufacturing plant is C(x) = 0.28x^2-0.7x+1, where C(x) is the cost per hour in millions of dollars and x is the number of items produced per hour in thousands. Determine the minimum production cost.

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The cost function is:

[tex]C(x)=0.28x^2-0.7x+1[/tex]

where C(x) is the cost per hour in millions of dollars and x is the number of items produced per hour in thousands.

To find:

The minimum production cost.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]C(x)=0.28x^2-0.7x+1[/tex]

It is a quadratic function with positive leading efficient. It means it is an upward parabola and its vertex is the point of minima.

If a quadratic function is [tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex], then the vertex of the parabola is:

[tex]\text{Vertex}=\left(-\dfrac{b}{2a},f(-\dfrac{b}{2a})\right)[/tex]

In the given function, [tex]a=0.28, b=-0.7, c=1[/tex]. So,

[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{-0.7}{2(0.28)}[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=1.25[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=1.25[/tex] in the given function to find the minimum production cost.

[tex]C(x)=0.28(1.25)^2-0.7(1.25)+1[/tex]

[tex]C(x)=0.28(1.5625)-0.875+1[/tex]

[tex]C(x)=0.4375+0.125[/tex]

[tex]C(x)=0.5625[/tex]

Therefore, the minimum production cost is 0.5625 million dollars.

Answer 2

Answer:

The minimum cost is 0.5625.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost function is

C(x) = 0.28x^2 - 0.7 x + 1

Differentiate with respect to x.

[tex]C = 0.28x^2 - 0.7 x + 1\\\\\frac{dC}{dt} = 0.56 x - 0.7\\\\\frac{dC}{dt} = 0\\\\0.56 x - 0.7 = 0\\\\x = 1.25[/tex]

The minimum value is

c = 0.28 x 1.25 x 1.25 - 0.7 x 1.25 + 1

C = 0.4375 - 0.875 + 1

C = 0.5625

A scientist has acid solutions with concentrations of 4% and 15%. He wants to mix some of each solution to get 44 milliliters of solution with a 12% concentration. How many milliliters of each solution does he need to mix together?​

Answers

Let x and y be the amounts (in mL) of the 4% and 15% solutions, respectively, that the scientist needs to use.

He wants to end up with a 44 mL solution, so

x + y = 44 mL

Each milliliter of 4% solution contains 0.04 mL of acid, while each mL of 15% contains 0.15 mL of acid. The resulting solution should have a concentration of 12%, so that each mL of it contains 0.12 mL of acid. Then the solution will contain

0.04x + 0.15y = 0.12 × (44 mL) = 5.28 mL

of acid.

Solve for x and y. In the first equation, we have y = 44 mL - x, and substituting into the second equation gives

0.04x + 0.15 (44 mL - x) = 5.28 mL

0.04x + 6.6 mL - 0.15x = 5.28 mL

1.32 mL = 0.19x

x ≈ 6.95 mL

==>   y ≈ 37.05 mL

Critical Thinking: Empirical/Quantitative Skills
United flight 15 from New York's JFK to San Francisco uses a Boeing 757-200 with 180 seats. Because some
people with tickets don't show up. United will overbook by selling more than 180 tickets. If the flight is not
overbooked, the airline will lose revenue due to empty seats, but if too many tickets are sold and some
passengers are denied seats, the airline loses money from the compensation that must be given to bumped
passengers. Assume that there is a 0.905 probability that a passenger with a ticket will show up for the
flight. Also assume that the airline sells 200 tickets for the 180 seats that are available.

Answers

Answer:

1. 0.0910 = 9.10% probability that exactly 180 passengers show up for the flight.

2. 0.4522 = 45.22% probability that at most 180 passengers show up for the flight.

3. 0.5478 = 54.78% probability that more than 180 passengers show up for the flight.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

Assume that there is a 0.905 probability that a passenger with a ticket will show up for the  flight.

This means that [tex]p = 0.905[/tex]

Also assume that the airline sells 200 tickets

This means that [tex]n = 200[/tex]

Question 1:

Exactly, so we can use the P(X = x) formula, to find P(X = 180).

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 180) = C_{200,180}.(0.905)^{180}.(0.095)^{20} = 0.0910[/tex]

0.0910 = 9.10% probability that exactly 180 passengers show up for the flight.

2. When 200 tickets are sold, calculate the probability that at most 180 passengers show up for the flight.

Now we have to use the approximation.

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 200*0.905 = 181[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{200*0.905*0.095} = 4.15[/tex]

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \leq 180 + 0.5) = P(X \leq 180.5)[/tex], which is the p-value of Z when X = 180.5. Thus

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{180.5 - 181}{4.15}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.12[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.12[/tex] has a p-value of 0.4522.

0.4522 = 45.22% probability that at most 180 passengers show up for the flight.

3. When 200 tickets are sold, calculate the probability that more than 180 passengers show up for the flight.

Complementary event with at most 180 passengers showing up, which means that the sum of these probabilities is 1. So

[tex]p + 0.4522 = 1[/tex]

[tex]p = 1 - 0.4522 = 0.5478[/tex]

0.5478 = 54.78% probability that more than 180 passengers show up for the flight.

Of the 180 surveyed, 36 reported they will not vote to reelect the current president.

Answers

Answer:

(0.123 ; 0.277)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample size, n = 180

x = 36

Proportion, p = x / n = 36/180 = 0.2

Confidence interval for sample proportion :

Confidence interval :

p ± Zcritical * √p(1 - p) / n

Zcritical at 99% = 2.576

0.2 ± 2.576 * √0.2(1 - 0.2) / 180

0.2 ± 2.576 * 0.0298142

Is this sequence arithmetic or geometric? How do you know?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\sum_{n = 1} 2*(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic sequence is of the form:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1} + d[/tex]

While a geometric sequence is of the form:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*r[/tex]

notice that first, we have a change of sign in our sequence, so we already can discard the arithmetic sequence.

In fact, the pattern is kinda easy to see.

The first term is:

A₁ = 2

the second term is:

A₂ = -10

notice that:

A₂/A₍ = r = -10/2 = -5

The third term is:

A₃ = 50

the quotient between the third term and the second term is:

A₃/A₂ = 50/-10 = -5

Whit this we can already conclude that the n-th term of our sequence will be:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*(-5)[/tex]

Then the summation will be something like:

[tex]\sum_{n = 1} A_n = A_1 + A_2 + A_3 + ... = 2 - 10 + 50 - ...[/tex]

We can write:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*(-5) = (A_{n-2}*(-5))*(-5)) = A_1*(-5)^{n-1} = 2*(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]

Then the summation is just:

Find the value of y.

Answers

In the largest triangle, the missing side has length

√((11 + 5)² - x ²) = √(256 - x ²)

But it's also the hypotenuse of the triangle with side lengths 11 and y, so that its length can also be written as

√(11² + y ²) = √(121 + y ²)

so that

√(256 - x ²) = √(121 + y ²)

or, by taking the squares of both sides,

256 - x ² = 121 + y ²

y ² = 135 - x ²

In the smallest triangle, you have

5² + y ² = x ²   ==>   x ² = 25 + y ²

Substitute this into the previous equation and solve for y :

y ² = 135 - (25 + y ²)

y ² = 110 - y ²

2y ² = 110

y ² = 55

y = √55
