Answer:
a) x = 798 is the quantity that maximizes the profit
b)po(x) = 401 $/unit
c)P(max ) = 636105 $
Step-by-step explanation:
The weekly demand function is equal to the price by unit and the Revenue function is weekly demand times quantity of units then:
R(x) = p(x) * x
R(x) = ( 800 - 0,5*x ) * x
R(x) = 800*x - 0,5*x²
The equation for the profit is:
P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
P(x) = 800*x - 0,5*x² - ( 300 + 2*x)
P(x) = 798*x - 0,5*x² - 300
a) P(x) = 798*x - 0,5*x² - 300
Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation:
P´(x) = 798 - x
If P´(x) = 0 then 798 - x = 0
x = 798 is the quantity that maximizes the profit
b) Selling price for the optimal quantity is:
p(x) = 800 - 0,5*x
p(x) = 800 - 0,5* 798
po (x) = 800 - 399
po(x) = 401 $/unit
c) Pmax = ?
P(x) = 798*x - 0,5*x² - 300 by subtitution of x = 798
P(max) = 636804 - 399 - 300
P(max ) = 636105 $
a) The quantity that will maximize profit is [tex]100 \ units[/tex].
b) The selling of at this optimal quantity is [tex]\[/tex][tex]750[/tex] per unit.
c) So, the maximum profit is [tex]\[/tex][tex]25000[/tex].
Demand Function:A demand function is a mathematical equation that expresses the demand for a product or service as a function of its price and other factors such as the prices of the substitutes and complementary goods, income, etc.
The given demand function,
[tex]P=800-\frac{1}{2}x[/tex]
So, the revenue function is,
[tex]R(x)=p.x\\R(x)=800-x-\frac{1}{2}x^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow[/tex]Average cost is
[tex]\bar{C}=300+2x[/tex]
So, the total cost function is,
[tex]C\left ( x \right )=\bar{C}.x \\ C\left ( x \right )=300x+2x^{2}[/tex]
a) Profit function:
[tex]P\left ( x \right )=R\left ( x \right )-C\left ( x \right ) \\ =800x-\frac{1}{2}x^{2}-300x-2x^{2} \\ P\left ( x \right )=500x-\frac{5}{2}x^{2}[/tex]
For maximum,
[tex]{P}'\left ( x \right )=0 \\ 500\left ( 1 \right )-\frac{5}{2}\left ( 2x \right )=0 \\ 500-5x=0 \\ x=100[/tex]
b) Selling Price:
[tex]P=800-\frac{1}{2}x \\ at \ x=100 \\ P=800-\frac{1}{2}\left ( 100 \right ) \\ =\$ 750[/tex]
c) Maximum Profit:
[tex]P\left ( x \right )=500x-\frac{5}{2}x^{2} \\ P\left ( 100 \right )=500\left ( 100 \right )-\frac{5}{2}\left ( 100 \right )^{2} \\ P\left ( 100 \right )=\$ 25000[/tex]

lines A and B are parallel lines find the measures of angle 1
Answer:
33Step-by-step explanation:
alternate angles are equal
see attached
The measure of ∠1 is 33° .
What is alternate interior angles?When two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal, the pair of angles formed on the inner side of the parallel lines, but on the opposite sides of the transversal are called alternate interior angles. These angles are always equal.
According to the question
As given , lines A and B are parallel lines
therefore ,
∠1 = 33°
∠3 = 57°
they are between parallel line and opposite of transversal line
So, they are alternate interior angles and are equal .
Hence, The measure of ∠1 is 33° .

does the surface in contact with ground affect the going motion of the car ?why?
Answer:
Yes, it does. The ground is bumpy and it creates friction acting against the car's motion.
(you can include my example too depending on what your teacher is looking for)
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a fun one! Think about a ball rolling on a smooth surface, now on a bumpy sandpapery one. Which one do you think is faster? The smooth surface! This is because of this friction of the sandpaper which slows down the ball. On the other hand, the smooth one has very little friction. The same applies to cars.
f(x) = 3x2 – 4x – 1
g(x) = –2x + 5
Find: (gof)(x)
Answer:
[tex](g\circ f)(x)=-6x^2 +8x +7[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The Composite Function
Given f(x) and g(x) real functions, the composite function, named (g\circ f)(x) is defined as:
[tex](g\circ f)(x)=g(f(x))[/tex]
For practical purposes, it's found by substituting f into g.
Given the functions:
[tex]f(x) = 3x^2 - 4x - 1[/tex]
[tex]g(x) = -2x + 5[/tex]
We need to find
[tex](g\circ f)(x)=g(f(x))[/tex]
Replace f into g:
[tex](g\circ f)(x)=-2(3x^2 - 4x - 1) + 5[/tex]
Operating:
[tex](g\circ f)(x)=-6x^2 +8x +2 + 5[/tex]
Reducing:
[tex](g\circ f)(x)=-6x^2 +8x +7[/tex]
Thus,
[tex]\boxed{(g\circ f)(x)=-6x^2 +8x +7}[/tex]

Divide the number 484 into two parts in a ratio of 7 : 4. How much bigger is the first number than the second number?
Answer:
I don't known
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
132
Step-by-step explanation:
First, obtain the total of the ratio:
7+4 = 11
Then, make equations:
[tex]\frac{7}{11} =\frac{x}{484}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{4}{11} =\frac{x}{484}[/tex]
Next, solve:
11x = 7*484 → 11x = 3388 → x = 308
11x = 4*484 → 11x = 1936 → x = 176
Finally, find the difference:
308 - 176 = 132
(**If it is asking how many times bigger... 308/176 = 1.75 or [tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex] )

Xavier is solving a problem on the whiteboard as shown.
Part A. Is Xavier's solution correct? If not, identify where he made an error.
Part B. Solve 7950 divided by 25.
Quantity of trail mix with Monty = 3/4 pounds
Quantity of pounds he need to divide it into = 1/8
Number of trail mix bags Monty will have =
= 3/4 ÷ 1/8
= 3/4 × 8/1 ( division of fraction is multiplication with reciprocal )
= 24/4
We know that both 24 and 4 is divisible by 4 . Hence ,
= 24 ÷ 4 / 4 ÷ 4
= 6/1
= 6 bags
Therefore , Monty will have 6 bags of trail mix .
Solution 3 :Quantity of food an elephant eats in 16 hours = 525 pounds
Quantity of food the elephant will eat in 1 hour = 525 ÷ 16
Quantity of food the elephant will eat in 1 hour = 32.8125 pounds = 33 pounds
Therefore , an elephant eats 33 pounds of food in 1 hour .
Solution 4 :Number of tickets that can be purchased with $14 = 1 ticket
Number of tickets that can be purchased with $500 =
= 500 ÷ 14
= 35 tickets
Therefore , 35 tickets can be purchased with $500 .
Solution 5 :Factors of 45 = 1 , 5 , 3, 9 , 15 and 45 .
Factors of 27 = 1 , 3 , 9 and 27 .
Their Greatest common factor = 9 .
Then , the sum of 45 and 27 can be written as :
9 ( 5 + 3 )
Therefore , Mr . Morris wrote = 9 ( 5 + 3 ) .
Solution 6 :Total number of event flyers in a club = 4896
Total number of playerz in a club = 24
Then number of flyers each member of the club will get =
= 4896 ÷ 24
= 204
Therefore , each player will get 204 flyers .
Solution 7 :Part A is not given .
Part B :
= 7950 ÷ 25
= 318
Therefore , 7950 ÷ 25 = 318 .

Find the length and width of a rectangle with maximum area that has a perimeter of 9P units.
Answer:
l = 9p/4 , l = 9p/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Perimeter = 9p
Find:
Length and width
Computation:
Assume;
Length = l
Perimeter = 2(l+b)
9p/2 = l+w
w = 9p/2 - l
Area = lb
Area = l(9p/2 - l)
Using differentiation
l = 9p/4
w = 9p/2 - l
w = 9p/2 - 9p/4
w = 9p/4
