The average cost when producing x items is found by dividing the cost function, C(x), by the number of items,x. When is the average cost less than 100, given the cost function is C(x)= 20x+160?
A) ( 2, infinit)
B) (0,2)
C) (-infinit,0) U (2,infinit)
D) (- infinit,0] U [2,infinit)
9514 1404 393
Answer:
A) (2, ∞) . . . . or C) (-∞, 0) ∪ (2, ∞) if you don't think about it
Step-by-step explanation:
We want ...
C(x)/x < 100
(20x +160)/x < 100
20 +160/x < 100 . . . . . separate the terms on the left
160/x < 80 . . . . . . . subtract 20
160/80 < x . . . . . multiply by x/80 . . . . . assumes x > 0
x > 2 . . . . . . simplify
In interval notation this is (2, ∞). matches choice A
__
Technically (mathematically), we also have ...
160/80 > x . . . . and x < 0
which simplifies to x < 0, or the interval (-∞, 0).
If we include this solution, then choice C is the correct one.
_____
Comment on the solution
Since we are using x to count physical items, we want to assume that the practical domain of C(x) is whole numbers, where x ≥ 0, so this second interval is not in the domain of C(x). That is, the average cost of a negative number of items is meaningless.

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.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
$562,500 per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost will be a minimum where C'(x) = 0.
C'(x) = 0.56x -0.7 = 0
x = 0.7/0.56 = 1.25
The cost at that production point is ...
C(1.25) = (0.28×1.25 -0.7)1.25 +1 = -0.35×1.25 +1 = 0.5625
The minimum production cost is $562,500 per hour for production of 1250 items per hour.
_____
Additional comment
This is different than the minimum cost per item. This level of production gives a per-item cost of $450. The minimum cost per item is $358.30 at a production level of 1890 per hour.

6. A boy pushes his little brother in a box with a force of 500 N for 324 m How much work is this if the force of
friction acting on the sliding box is (a) 100 N (6) 250. N?
Answer:
(a) 129600 J
(b) 81000 J
Step-by-step explanation:
The work done is given by the product of force and the displacement in the direction of force.
Force, F = 500 N
distance, d = 324 m
(a) friction force, f = 100 N
The work done is
W = (F - f) x d
W = (500 - 100) x 324
W = 129600 J
(b) Friction, f = 250 N
The work done is
W = (F - f) d
W = (500 - 250) x 324
W = 81000 J
The value of a car will “depreciate” over time. For example, a car that was worth $24 000 when it was new, is being sold for $13 500 three years later. Determine the annual depreciation rate on this car. Express your final answer as a percent, rounded to one decimal place.
Answer:
The car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the value of a car will “depreciate” over time, and, for example, a car that was worth $ 24,000 when it was new, is being sold for $ 13,500 three years later, to determine the annual depreciation rate on this car the following calculation must be performed:
13,500 x (1 + X) ^ 1x3 = 24,000
13,500 x (1 + 0.2114) ^ 3 = 24,000
X = 21.14%
Therefore, the car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

Answer:
n = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
tan theta = opp /adj
tan 30 = n / 2 sqrt(3)
2 sqrt(3) tan 30 = n
2 sqrt(3) * sqrt(3)/3 = n
2 = n
We have to find,
The required value of n.
Now we can,
Use the trigonometric functions.
→ tan(θ) = opp/adj
Let's find the required value of n,
→ tan (θ) = opp/adj
→ tan (30) = n/2√3
→ n = 2√3 × tan (30)
→ n = 2√3 × √3/3
→ n = 2√3 × 1/√3
→ [n = 2]
Thus, the value of n is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:
describe how you could use the point-slope formula to find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to a given line and passes through a given point
Answer:
Using the slope intercept formula, we can see the slope of line p is ¼. Since line k is perpendicular to line p it must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal. (-4/1) If we set up the formula y=mx+b, using the given point and a slope of (-4), we can solve for our b or y-intercept. In this case it would be 17.
it takes engineer 3 hrs to drive to his brother's house at an average of 50 miles per hour. if he takes same route home, but his average speed of 60 miles per hour, what is the time, in hours, that it takes him to drive home?
Answer:
t2 = 2.5 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance is the same.
d = r * t
The rates and times are different so
t1 = 3 hours
t2 = X
r1 = 50 mph
r2 = 60 mph
r1 * t1 = r2*t2
50 * 3 = 60 * t2
150 = 60 * t2
150 / 60 = t2
t2 = 2.5
Answer:

Can someone explain how to solve this step by step? Thank you
Answer:
x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the Rational Roots Test, we can say that the potential rational roots are
± (1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90).
Unfortunately, there doesn't really seem to be an easy way to figure out which numbers are actually roots outside of guess and check. Therefore, to solve this, we'll have to go through numbers until we hit something.
To make the process faster, I wrote a Python script as follows:
numbers = [1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90]
negative_numbers = [i * (-1) for i in numbers]
numbers = numbers + negative_numbers
for i in numbers:
if (i**3 - 10*(i**2) + 9*i-90) == 0:
print(i)
The result comes out as 10, meaning that 10 is our only rational root. Using the Factor Theorem, we can say that because 10 is a root, (x-10) is a factor of the polynomial. Using synthetic division, we can divide (x-10) from the polynomial to get
10 | 1 -10 9 -90
| 10 0 90
_________________
1 0 9 0
Therefore, we can say that
(x³-10x²+9x-90)/(x-10) = (x²+0x+9), so
x³-10x²+9x-90 = (x-10)(x²+9)
As the only solution to x²+9=0 contains imaginary numbers, x=10 is the only solution to x³-10x²+9x-90 = (x-10)(x²+9) = 0
To the nearest 100th feet, find the volume of a hollow cylinder having inner radius =150 in, outer radius= 170 in and the height = 220 in
Answer:
R1 = 150 in = 12.5 ft
R2 = 170 in = 14.167 ft
H = 220 in = 18.333 ft
Volume of solid cylinder = Pi * R^2 * H
So the volume of a hollow cylinder must be V = Pi * H * (R2^2 - R1^2)
V = 3.142 * 18.33 * (14.17^2 - 12.5^2) = 2565 ft^3

An office manager booked 55 airline tickets. He booked 6 more tickets on Airline A than Airline B. On Airline C, he booked 5 more than twice as many tickets as on Airline B. How many tickets did he book on each Airline?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
A: 17B: 11C: 27Step-by-step explanation:
If we let a, b, c represent tickets booked on airlines A, B, C, respectively, then we have ...
a + b + c = 55
a - b = 6
-2b + c = 5
Using the last two equations to write expressions for a and c, we have ...
a = b +6
c = 5 +2b
These can be substituted into the first equation to give ...
(b +6) +b +(5 +2b) = 55
4b +11 = 55
4b = 44
b = 11
a = b+6 = 17
c = 5 +2b = 27
He booked 17 tickets on Airline A, 11 tickets on Airline B, and 27 tickets on Airline C.

Answer:
There is not enough information to determine the mean, the median is 28.
There is not enough information to determine the mean absolute deviation, the interquartile range is 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The box plot given has a skewed distribution, this means that both the mean and median values are not the same. From a box plot, the median value Can be obtained as the point in between the box.
From the box plot given, the marked point in between the box is 28 cm
Hence, Median = 28 cm
The mean cannot be inferred from the skewed box plot.
There is also not enough information to determine the mean absolute deviation ;
The interquartile range:
(Q3 - Q1)
Q3 = upper quartile, the endpoint of the box = 40
Q1 = the starting point of the box = 22
IQR = Q3 - Q1
IQR = 40 - 22 = 18
someone find x for me lol
Hi there!
[tex]\large\boxed{x = 60^o}[/tex]
We know:
∠AGB ≅ ∠DGC because they are vertical angles. They both are 90°.
∠AGE ≅ FGC because they are vertical angles, equal 30°.
∠BGF ≅ ∠DGE are vertical angles, both equal x.
All angles sum up to 360°, so:
360° = 90° + 90° + 30° + 30° + x + x
Simplify:
360° = 240° + 2x
Subtract:
120° = 2x
x = 60°

There are 84 students in a speech contest. Yesterday, 1/4 of them gave their speeches. Today, 3/7 of the remaining students gave their speeches. How many students still haven't given their speeches?
Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
Total students un the contest = 84
Number of students who gave their speech yesterday:-
[tex] \frac{1}{4} \: of \: total \\ = \frac{1}{4} \times 84 \\ = 21[/tex]
so 21 students gave their speech yesterday
remaining students = 84 - 21= 63
Number of students who gave their speech today:-
[tex] \frac{3}{7} \: of \: remaining \\ = \frac{3}{7} \times 63 \\ = 27[/tex]
Number of students who have given their speech:-
= 21 + 27
= 48
Number of students who still haven't given their speech :-
= total - 48
= 84 - 48
= 36
