An ice cream shop sells 700 cones per day at a price of $4.50. A survey lets the owner know
that for every decrease in price of $0.50, they will be able to sell 100 extra cones. Write an
equation for the Revenue, R, which can be used to determine how much the owners should
charge in order to maximize their revenue.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

R(x) = (4.50 – 0.50x)(700 + 100x)

___________________________

R(x) is in factored form

Where x is each decrease in the price.

____________________________

Explanation:

R(x) is in the form ax² + bx + c.

This is where the equation is distributed and simplified [Standard form]

The maximum revenue is represented by

R(-b/2a), where the vertex of this relationship is, at x = -b/2a.

Revenue = (Price)(Quantity)

____________________________

R(x) = (4.50 – 0.50x)(700 + 100x) →

-50x² + 100x + 3150 [ax² + bx + c].

x = -b/2a

x = -(100)/2(-50)

x = -100 / -100

x = 100 / 100

x = 1

Therefore R(1) or where the price is decreased by a factor of 1 is the maximum revenue.

R(2) = -50(1)² + 100(1) + 3150

R(2) = -50(1) + 100 + 3150

R(2) = -50 + 100 + 3150

R(2) = 3200.

_______________________________

Thus the best revenue ($3,200) is obtained by decreasing the price once (Price of 4$), with 800 cones.

Rewrite the following problems using exponent rules. Then, solve using logarithms.
1. 3(0.99)4t = 15
2. 4(1.01)3 + t = 8

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1. 3(0.96059601^t) = 15; t = -40.03

  2. 4.121204(1.01^t) = 8; t = 66.66

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  (a^b)^c = a^(bc)

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

The solution for an exponential problem using logarithms is ...

  a·b^x = c   ⇒   log(c/a)/log(b) = x

_____

1. Rewrite: (3)(0.99^4)^t = 15  ⇒  3(0.96059601^t) = 15

Solution: t = log(15/3)/log(0.96059601) ≈ -40.03

__

2. Rewrite: 4(1.01^3)(1.01^t) = 8  ⇒  4.121204(1.01^t) = 8

Solution: t = log(8/4.121204)/log(1.01) ≈ 66.66

Ram gives his son 100 naira on one day, 50 naira on the second day, 25 naira on the third day and so on. What will be the total amount given by Ram to his son starting from the first day, if he lives forever?​

Answers

Answer:

175+(25*∞d)

Step-by-step explanation:

So d will represent the days which we don't know yet

100 + 50 + 25 + 25d

175+25d

and in this case it will be infinite the amount of days so

175+(25*∞d)

The total amount given by Ram to his son starting from the first day, if he lives forever is 200 nairas.

Given,

Ram gives his son 100 nairas on one day, 50 nairas on the second day, 25 nairas on the third day, and so on.

We need to find what will be the total amount given by Ram to his son starting from the first day if he lives forever.

What is a geometric sequence?

It is a sequence where each term after the first term is found by multiplying the previous terms by a common ratio.

Example:

2, 4, 8, 16, 32

Common ratio = 4/2 = 8/4 = 16/8 = 2

The sum of the nth term of a geometric sequence is given by:

S = a [ [tex]r^{n}[/tex]- 1 ) / ( r - 1 ) ] if r > 1 ______(1)

S = a [ 1 - [tex]r^{n}[/tex] ) / ( 1 - r ) ] if r < 1 _______(2)

We see that,

Ram gives his son 100 nairas on one day, 50 nairas on the second day, 25 nairas on the third day, and so on.

This is a geometric sequence.

Find the sequence.

100, 50, 25, ,,,,,,, ∞

Here,

The common ratio is:

r = 50 / 100 = 25/50 = 1/2

i.e r < 1

Find the sum of at ∞.

Now,

a = 100

r = 1/2

n = ∞

From (2)

S = a [ 1 - [tex]r^{n}[/tex] ) / ( 1 - r ) ]

S = 100 [ 1 - 0 ] / (1 - 0.5 ) ]

S = 100 [ 1 / 0.5 ]

S = 100 / 0.5

S = 200

Thus the total amount given by Ram to his son starting from the first day, if he lives forever is 200 nairas.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Area = 287\ in^2[/tex]

Given

[tex]Length = 20.5[/tex]

[tex]Space = 4.25[/tex]

[tex]Panels = 3[/tex]

See attachment

Required

The area of one panel

From the attachment, the total width is 50.5in.

i.e.

[tex]Total\ Width = 50.5[/tex]

Given that there are 2 spaces between the 3 panels and each space has a length of 4.25 in.

The reduced width is:

[tex]Reduced\ Width = 50.5 - 2 * 4.25[/tex]

[tex]Reduced\ Width = 42[/tex]

At this point, we can calculate the width of one panel by dividing the reduced width by the number of panels (3).

[tex]Width = \frac{42}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Width = 14[/tex]

The area of one is:

[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]

(x/2)² = 74 - 49

(x/2)² = 25

x/2 = ±5

x = 2 * ±5

x = ±10

in standard form.

Answers

Answer:

         x + 3y = 7            

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line which passes through (x₁, y₁) and with slope of m in point-slope form:

                                y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

m = -¹/₃

(1, 2)    ⇒   x₁ = 1,  y₁ = 2

Therefore,  the equation of the line which passes through (1, 2) and with slope of −1/3 in point-slope form:

y - 2 = -¹/₃(x - 1)

y - 2 = -¹/₃x + ¹/₃                     {add ¹/₃x to both sides}

¹/₃x + y - 2 = ¹/₃                     {add 2 to both sides}

¹/₃x + y = 2¹/₃                       {multiply both sides by 3}

x + 3y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The given problem can be placed in the category of ratios and proportions. There is a ratio of color mixing which contains the proportion of two colors i.e blue and yellow. When we use 2 cups of yellow with 3.5 cups of yellow then we get green color so if we mix half of their amounts then we can get less or simply half amount of color too. Hence adding 1 cup of yellow and 1.75 cup of blue will give us small amount in result.
