The average cost per item, C, of manufacturing a quantity q of cell phones is given by C = (a/q) +b. Find the rate of change of C as q increases. if production increases at a rate of 100 cell phones per week, how fast is the average cost changing?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The average cost per item is given by the equation C = (a/q) + b. To find the rate of change of C as q increases, we need to take the derivative of this equation with respect to q.

dC/dq = -(a/q^2)

So, the rate of change of C with respect to q is proportional to -1/q^2.

If production increases at a rate of 100 cell phones per week, the rate of change of q is 100. But we need to convert this to units of items per hour or per second, depending on the context.

Let's assume the rate of increase of q is in items per hour. Then the rate of change of C with respect to time t (in hours) is given by:

dC/dt = (dC/dq) * (dq/dt) = (-(a/q^2)) * (100) = -100a/q^2

So, the rate at which the average cost is changing depends on the value of a and q. If we knew the values of a and q, we could calculate the specific rate at which the average cost is changing.

the base of a triangle is 8 ft less than its height. if the area is 120 ft2, find the base and the height of this triangle. use an equation to solve this problem.

Answers

The height of the triangle is 20 and base of the triangle is 12.

"Information available from the question"

The base of a triangle is 8 ft. less than its height.

If the area is 120 [tex]ft^2.[/tex]

We have to find the base and the height of this triangle.

Now, According to the question:

Let the height be x then if the base is 8 ft. less, then the base is x - 8.

We know that:

Area of the triangle is :  (b × h)/2

Area of the triangle is : (x (x - 8)) /2

120 [tex]ft^2[/tex] = ([tex]x^{2} -8x[/tex])/2

240 = [tex]x^{2} -8x[/tex]

[tex]= > x^{2} -8x-240=0[/tex]

For solving equation, Use the quadratic formula :

x = (-b ± [tex]\sqrt{b^2-4ac}[/tex]) / 2a

a = 1

b = -8

c = -240

x = (-(-8) ± [tex]\sqrt{(-8)^2-4.1(-240)})/2.1[/tex]

By solving, we get

x = (8 ± 32)/2

We get the values :

x = 20 and x = -12

We know x = −12 can't be a solution as length can't be negative.

Base = x - 8

Base = 20 - 8

Base = 12

Hence, The height of the triangle is 20 and base of the triangle is 12.

There will be a round of betting after everyone gets one card. Another round of betting after each player gets a second card, etc. Once a total of 7 cards have been dealt to each player, the player with the best hand will win. However, if any player is dealt one of the designated cards, the dealer collects all cards, shuffles, and starts over.
The designated cards are: Queen of Clubs, 10 of Hearts. The players wish to determine the likelihood of actually getting to play a hand without mucking the cards and starting over.
In how many ways can you deal the cards WITHOUT getting one of the designated cards? (Hint: Consider how may cards are in the deck that are NOT one of the designated cards and consider how many cards need to be dealt in order for each player to have 7 cards.)

Six friends group is playing poker one night. They have a standard 52-card deck. So, here, total number of possible outcomes of game = 52

Now, the designated cards are , Queen of Clubs, 10 of Hearts. So,

a) Number of cards are in the deck that are not one of the designated cards

= 52 - 2 = 50

Number of cards that need to be dealt in order for each player to have 7 cards

= 5× 7 = 35

Thus total possible number of ways

= ⁵⁰C₃₅ = 2250829575120, which are ways to deal the cards without getting one of the designated cards.

b) Number of cards are in the deck = 52

Number of cards that need to be dealt in order for each player to have 7 cards = 5× 7 = 35

Thus total possible number of ways

A rectangle has a length of 30 feet less than five times its width if the area of the rectangle is 360 ft.² find the length of the rectangle

Answers

Answer:

[tex]l = 30[/tex]     OR     [tex]l=-60[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem with a system of equations by creating 2 equations from the information given.

1. "a length of 30 feet less than 5 times its width"

[tex]l = 5w - 30[/tex]

2. "the area of the rectangle is 360 ft²"

[tex]l\cdot w = 360[/tex]

To solve for the rectangle's length, we can create a substitution for w by dividing both sides of the second equation by length ([tex]l[/tex]).

[tex]l\cdot w = 360\\\overline{\ \ l\ \ } \ \ \ \: \ \overline{\ l \ \ }[/tex]

[tex]w = \dfrac{360}{l}[/tex]

Then, we can substitute this value back into the first equation and solve for [tex]l[/tex].

[tex]l = 5(\dfrac{360}{l}) - 30[/tex]

↓ distribute the 5

[tex]l(l) = \left(\dfrac{1800}{l} - 30\right)l[/tex]

↓ multiply both sides by [tex]l[/tex]

[tex]l^2 = 1800 - 30l[/tex]

↓ move all [tex]l[/tex]'s to one side

[tex]l^2 + 30l = 1800[/tex]

To solve this quadratic, we can complete the square.

    ↓ add (30/2)² to both sides

    [tex]l^2 + 30l + \left(\dfrac{30}{2}\right)^2 = 1800 + 15^2[/tex]

    ↓ simplify 15²

    [tex]l^2 + 30l + 225 = 1800 + 225[/tex]

    ↓ factor the left side as a perfect square

    [tex](l + 15)^2 = 2025[/tex]

    ↓ take the square root of both sides

    [tex]l + 15 = \pm \sqrt{2025}[/tex]

    [tex]l + 15 = \pm 45[/tex]

↓ split into 2 equations

[tex]l + 15 = 45[/tex]     OR     [tex]l + 15 = -45[/tex]

Start with a heart rate of 90bpm, decide how many beats per minute your situation might increase or decrease your heart rate – DO NOT DISCLOSE YOUR NUMBER. Calculate the number of 0.04s boxes there would be between R-R intervals on an ECG trace. Write that number in your answer. - choose something that might increase your heart rate

Answers

Using unitary method, we can calculate the number of 0.04s boxes between R-R intervals on an ECG trace for our chosen event.

The unitary method is a mathematical technique that involves finding the value of one unit of a given quantity and then using it to find the value of a different quantity. In this case, we want to find the change in heart rate per second, so we need to determine how many beats per second our chosen event increases our heart rate by.

To calculate the duration of each R-R interval, we can use the following formula:

R-R interval duration = 1 / heart rate (in seconds)

Assuming our starting heart rate is 90 bpm and our event increases our heart rate by y beats per second, we can calculate the new heart rate as follows:

New heart rate = 90 bpm + (y * 60) bpm

We can then calculate the duration of each R-R interval using the formula above.

Finally, to find the number of 0.04s boxes between R-R intervals on an ECG trace, we can convert the R-R interval duration to a number of 0.04s boxes. Each 0.04s box on an ECG trace represents 0.04 seconds, so we can use the following unitary method:

1 second = 25 0.04s boxes

R-R interval duration (in seconds) = x seconds

Number of 0.04s boxes = x * 25

The value of the probabilities are

a. P(x ≥ 12.5) is 6.68%

b. P(x ≤ 9) is 2.28%

c. P(10.88 ≤ x ≤ 15.3) is 61.38%

d. P(4.72 ≤ x ≤ 12.46) is 99.45%

Probability is the measure of the likelihood of an event occurring. It is a way of quantifying uncertainty and predicting the likelihood of an outcome. In this question, we will use the normal distribution to calculate probabilities.

The mean is the center of the distribution, and the standard deviation measures the spread of the distribution.

a. P(x ≥ 12.5):

Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the area to the right of 12.5 is 0.0668. This means that the probability of x being greater than or equal to 12.5 is 0.0668 or 6.68%.

b. P(x ≤ 9):

Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the area to the left of 9 is 0.0228. This means that the probability of x being less than or equal to 9 is 0.0228 or 2.28%.

c. P(10.88 ≤ x ≤ 15.3):

Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the area to the left of 15.3 is 0.9987 and the area to the left of 10.88 is 0.3849. Therefore, the area between 10.88 and 15.3 is

=> 0.9987 - 0.3849 = 0.6138.

This means that the probability of x being between 10.88 and 15.3 is 0.6138 or 61.38%.

d. P(4.72 ≤ x ≤ 12.46):

Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that the area to the left of 12.46 is 0.9946 and the area to the left of 4.72 is 0.0001. Therefore, the area between 4.72 and 12.46 is

=> 0.9946 - 0.0001 = 0.9945.

Regression analysis is a linear technique used to model the relationship between a scalar response and/or one or more explanatory variables, also known as the dependent and independent variables here.

Simple linear regression and multiple linear regression are two terms used to describe the process when there is only one explanatory variable present. This statement is different from multivariate linear regression, which thus predicts multiple correlated dependent variables as opposed to a single scalar variable present.

The first regression analysis technique that attracted a lot of research attention and was frequently applied in practical situations was linear regression.

A radio station broadcasts a signal over an area with a 45-mile radius. What is the area of the region that receives the radio signal to the nearest tenth?

Answers

Rounded to the nearest tenth, the area of the region that receives the radio signal is approximately 6,366.2 square miles.

What is the region's signed area?

Consider a plane region described by a xy-plane graph. The signed area of the region is defined as the area of the graph on or above the x-axis. The negative area of the graph is defined as the area below the x-axis.

The formula A = πr² gives the area of a circle with radius r. In this case, the radio station broadcasts over a 45-mile radius, so the region that receives the radio signal is:

A = π(45)²

A ≈ 6,366.2 square miles

The area of the region that receives the radio signal is approximately 6,366.2 square miles when rounded to the nearest tenth.

Prove that a nonempty set W is a subspace of a vector space V if and only if ax + by is an element of W for all scalar a and b and all vectors x and y in W.In one direction, assume W is a subspace and show by using closure axioms that ax + by is an element of W. In the other direction, assume ax + by is an element of W for all scalars a and b and all vectors x and y in W, and verify that W is closed under addition and scalar multiplication.(i) If W is a subspace of V, then use scalar multiplication closure to show that ax and by are in W. Now, use additive closure to get the desired result.(ii) Conversely, assume ax + by is in W. By cleverly assigning specific values to a and b, show that W is closed under addition and scalar multiplication.

Answers

If W is a subspace of V, then ax + by is an element of W since it satisfies the closure axioms of a vector space. Specifically, scalar multiplication closure confirms that ax and by are in W, and additive closure confirms that their sum, ax + by, is also in W.

Conversely, if ax + by is an element of W for all scalars a and b and all vectors x and y in W, then W must be closed under both addition and scalar multiplication.

To demonstrate this, we can assign a particular value to a or b, set the other to 1, and substitute the corresponding vectors x and y from W to get the equation ax + by = a(x) + b(y). This equation confirms that W is closed under addition and scalar multiplication, making it a subspace of V.

1. What is the equation for a line in slope-intercept form that is perpendicular to y= 1/4x-5

2. Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form that goes through (3,8) and is parallel to y=-3x+1.

Answers

Answer:

1) y = - 4x + b;2) y = - 3x + 17.

--------------------------------

Question 1

Given line:

y = 1/4x - 5

We know that perpendicular lines have opposite-reciprocal slopes.

Perpendicular line to the given has a slope of m = - 1 / (1/4) = - 4.

Let the y-intercept be b, then the line is:

y = - 4x + b

Question 2

Given line:

y = - 3x + 1

We know parallel lines have equal slopes.

The parallel line to the given has a slope of m = - 3 and passes through point (3, 8).

Set the point-slope equation:

y - 8 = - 3(x - 3)

Convert this into slope-intercept form:

y - 8 = - 3x + 9y = - 3x + 9 + 8y = - 3x + 17

Answers

The slope of line q is equal to 3.

The slope of line q is equal to -1/3.

An equation for line p in point-slope form is y + 5 = -1/3(x - 6).

An equation for line p in slope-intercept form is y = -1/3x - 3.

What is the slope-intercept form?

Mathematically, the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line is given by this mathematical expression;

y = mx + c   ....equation 1.

Where:

m represents the slope.x and y are the points.c represents the y-intercept or initial value.

From the information provided, we have the following linear equation in slope-intercept form for line q:

y = 3x + 5  ....equation 2.

By comparing equation 1 and equation 2, we can logically deduce the following:

Slope (m) = 3

Since line p is perpendicular to line q, the slope of line p is the negative reciprocal of the slope of line q;

m₁ × m₂ = -1

3 × m₂ = -1

Slope, m₂ of line p = -1/3.

At data point (6, -5), a linear equation of this line can be calculated by using the point-slope form as follows:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - (-5) = -1/3(x - 6)

y + 5 = -1/3(x - 6)

By simplifying further, the slope-intercept form is given by;

y + 5 = -1/3(x - 6)

3y + 15 = -x + 6

3y = -x - 9

y = -1/3x - 3
