A manufacturer buys large quantities of certain fuel pumps. He finds that his cost depends on the number of cases, q, bought at the same time according to the table below, where cost(q), measured in dollars, is the total cost of purchasing q cases. Find the marginal cost at q = 108.
9 96 100 104 108 112 116 cost(q)
1780 1850 1920 1990 2060 2120
a) $15.80/case
b) $10.50/case
c) $17.50/case
d) $14.00/case

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is c) $17.50/case.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: The data in the question are merged. The data are therefore sorted and the whole question is represented before answering the question. Please, see the attached pdf file for the sorted data and the represented question.

The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:

Marginal cost refers to the cost incurred in order to produce one more unit of a product.

Therefore, marginal cost is the change in the total cost that is caused by a one-unit increase in the quantity of a commodity that is produced.

From the table in the question, the marginal cost at q = 108 can be calculated as follows:

Change in total quantity at 180 cases = 108 - Number of cases immediately before 108 = 180 - 104 = 4

Change in total cost at 180 cases = Total cost at 108 cases - Total cost immediately before 108 cases = 1990 - 1920 = 70

Marginal cost at 108 cases = Change in total cost at 180 cases / Change in total quantity at 180 cases = 70 / 4 = 17.50 per case

Therefore, the correct option is c) $17.50/case.

find the length of segment AB​

Answers

Answer:

AB = 10.77 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If the extreme ends of a line segment are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex].

Then the length of the segment joining these extreme ends will be,

d = [tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

If the extreme ends of the line segment AB are A(-3, 1) and (7, 5).

Measure of AB = [tex]\sqrt{(7+3)^2+(5-1)^2}[/tex]

AB = [tex]\sqrt{100+16}[/tex]

AB = [tex]\sqrt{116}[/tex]

AB = 10.77 units

Therefore, length of the segment AB will be 10.77 units.

The area of a rectangular piece of land J is 220 square metres.Its width is 12.5.what is the perimeter of the land ?​

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{ {60.2 \: m}}}}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Area of rectangular piece of land ( l ) = 220 m²

Width ( w ) = 12.5 m

Finding length of the rectangular piece of land

[tex] \boxed{ \sf{area \: of \: rectangle = l \times w}}[/tex]

plug the values

⇒[tex] \sf{220 = l \times 12.5}[/tex]

Swap the sides of the equation

⇒[tex] \sf{12.5 \: l = 220}[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 12.5

⇒[tex] \sf{ \frac{12.5 \: l}{12.5} = \frac{220}{12.5} }[/tex]

Calculate

⇒[tex] \sf{l = 17.6 \: m}[/tex]

Length of rectangular piece of land ( l )= 17.6 m

Finding perimeter of rectangular piece of land

[tex] \boxed{ \sf{perimeter \: of \: rectangle = 2(l + b)}}[/tex]

plug the values of length and breadth

⇒[tex] \sf{2(17.6 + 12.5) }[/tex]

Add the numbers

⇒[tex] \sf{2 \times 30.1}[/tex]

Multiply the numbers

⇒[tex] \sf{60.2 \: m}[/tex]

Therefore, Perimeter of rectangular piece of land is 60.2 m

Enter the correct value so that each expression is a perfect square trinomial

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1). x² - 10x + a²

  By using the formula of (a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²

  x² - 2(5)x + a²

  Therefore, for a perfect square of the expression a should be equal to 5.

  Therefore, (x² - 10x + 25) will be the answer.

2). x² + 2ax + 36

  = x² + 2(a)x + 6²

  For a perfect square of the given expression value of a should be 6.

   x² + 2(a)x + 6² = x² + 2(6)x + 6²

                           = (x + 6)²

  Therefore, x² + 12x + 36 will be the answer.

3). [tex]x^{2}+\frac{1}{2}x+a^2[/tex]

    [tex]x^{2}+2(\frac{1}{4})x+a^2[/tex]

   To make this expression a perfect square,

   a² = [tex](\frac{1}{4})^2[/tex]

   [tex]x^{2}+2(\frac{1}{4})x+(\frac{1}{4})^2[/tex] = [tex](x+\frac{1}{4})^2[/tex]

  Therefore, the missing number will be [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex].

We are trying to come up with a regression model that predicts university GPA. Is high school GPA a significant predictor for university GPA?

Answers

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

High school GPA is not a significant predictor of University GPA.

The Grade Point Average obtained at the end of high school education has almost nothing (in my opinion, it has nothing to do with) to do with grades that the scholar will obtain in college. Many scholars find it difficult adjusting to the social and academic life demands of tertiary institution.

A good predictor for university Grade Point Average would be:

The CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) obtained by the student(s) in each year/session/level/part in the university.

This will be a significant predictor for university GPA.

To find:

How to transform the graph of f.

Total reimbursement for a trip of 95 miles?

Solution:

[tex]f(x) = 0.45m +5[/tex] can also be written as:

[tex]y = 0.45m +5[/tex]

It is nothing but slope intercept form, comparing with [tex]Y = M X+ C[/tex]

M is the slope and C is the y intercept.

Slope of the graph is 0.45.

Y intercept is 5.

After change in the function, first of all add $5.

[tex]0.45m + 5+5 = 0.45m+10[/tex]

Now, multiply with 1.25

Resulting function becomes:

[tex]f(x) =1.25\times (0.45m+10)\\\Rightarrow f(x) =0.5625m+12.5[/tex]

Kindly refer to the attached image for the graph of the two functions.

Now, the slope becomes 0.5625 and y intercept becomes 12.5. This is the transformation.

To find the reimbursement for a trip of 95 miles:

Put m = 95

[tex]f(95) =0.5625\times 95+12.5 = \bold{\$65.9375 }[/tex]

Find the interval in which f(x)=sinx−cosx is increasing or decreasing?

Answers

Answer:

There is no short answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find to intervals which f(x) increases or decreases, we first need to find it's derivative.

[tex]f(x) = sinx - cosx\\f'(x) = cosx - (-sinx) = cosx + sinx[/tex]

The function is increasing when it's value is  > 0 and decreasing when it's value is < 0.

If we take a look at this graph, cosx+sinx is positive when they are both positive or when cosx is greater then sinx on the negative part.

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Data set for sandwich calories=> 242, 290, 290, 280, 390, 350

Mean: the mean is given as sum of all values in the data set ÷ total no. of data set given

[tex] \frac{242 + 290 + 290 + 280 + 390 + 350}{6} = \frac{1,842}{6} = 307 [/tex]

Mean Absolute Value:

Step 1: find the absolute value of the difference between each value and the mean

|242 - 307| = 65

|290 - 307| = 17

|290 - 307| = 17

|280 - 307| = 27

|390 - 307| = 83

|350 - 307| = 43

Step 2: find the sum of all values gotten in step 1

65 + 17 + 17 + 27 + 83 + 43 = 252

Step 3: divide the result you get in step 2 by 6 to get the M.A.D

[tex] M.A.D = \frac{252}{6} = 42 [/tex]

The Mean Absolute Value represents or gives us an idea how spread the data set for the number of sandwich calories are.

Thus, averagely, the number of calories of sandwich at the restaurant are far from the mean caloric value by 42 calories.

Which of these pairs of functions are inverse functions?

Answers

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

You can attack this several ways. One is to work through f(g(x)) in each case and see if the result is x.

Another is to use a graphing calculator to evaluate y=f(g(x)) to see if the result is the line y=x.

Yet another way to work this is to pick a convenient value for x and evaluate f(g(x)) or g(f(x)). Here, we'll show this last case.

  A: f(1) = 2^0 +1 = 2; g(2) = log2(2-1) -1 = -1 . . . . g(f(1)) = -1, not 1 ⇒ not inverses

  B: f(2) = 1/2(ln(1) -1) = -1/2; g(-1/2) = 2e^(0) = 2 . . . g(f(2)) = 2 ⇒ inverses

  C: f(e) = 4ln(e^2)/e^2 = 8/e^2; g(8/e^2) = e^1 = e . . . g(f(e)) = e ⇒ inverses

  D: f(10) = 10^0-10 = -9; g(-9) = log(1) -10 = -10 . . . g(f(10)) = -10, not 10

      ⇒ not inverses

The value of the flow rate in cubic feet per hour is 0.04.

What is the rate of flow?

The rate of the flow of the fluid is defined as the volume of the fluid flowing through the cross-section per unit of time. The unit of the flow rate is cubic feet per hour or cubic meter per hour etc.

Given that water flows through a pipe at a rate of 6300 liters every 8.5 months. Then the flow rate in cubic feet per hour will be calculated as below:-

1 litre = 0.0353 cubic feet

6300 litres = 6300 x 0.0353

6300 litres = 222.4 cubic feet

1 month = 730 hours

8.5 months = 6205 hours

The rate of flow in cubic per hour will be:-

Rate of flow = 222.4 / 6205 = 0.04 cubic feet per hour

Therefore, the value of the flow rate in cubic feet per hour is 0.04.
