Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

- Mr Cash's company business shows the maximum profit in 3 years after starting the business.

- The maximum profit = 23 thousand dollars = $23,000

- Anytime beyond 5.77 years will be too late to sell the business as the profit margins have entered negative values.

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete Correct Question

The profits of Mr. Cash’s company is represented by the equation

p(t)=-3t^2+18t-4,

where p(t) is the amount of profit in hundreds of thousands of dollars and t is the number of years of operation. He realizes his company is on the down turn and wishes to sell before he ends up in debt.

In what year of operation does Mr. Cash’s business show maximum profit? What is the maximum profit? What time will it be too late to sell business?

Solution

The profit function is given as

p(t) = -3t² + 18t - 4

p(t) = profit in thousand of dollars

t = time in years.

To find the year where the maximum profit is obtained, we use differentiation analysis to obtain the maximum of the profit function and the corresponding time where it occurs.

At the maximum of the profit function,

(dp/dt) = 0 and (d²p/dt²) < 0

p(t) = -3t² + 18t - 4

(dp/dt) = -6t + 18

At maximum profit

(dp/dt) = -6t + 18 = 0

6t = 18

t = (18/6) = 3 years.

(d²p/dt²) = -6 < 0

Hence, this value of t corresponds to the maximum value of the profit function.

The maximum profit is then obtained when t = 3

p(t) = -3t² + 18t - 4

p(3) = -3(3²) + 18(3) - 4 = 23 thousand dollars

The business will be late to sell when the profits from the business start to run into negative values. So, we obtain the time when the profit margins reaches 0.

p(t) = -3t² + 18t - 4 = 0

-3t² + 18t - 4 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation

t = 0.23 years or t = 5.77 years

Since the profits first start rising from the value at t=0 up till the maximum profit at t=3, 0.23 years isn't a realistic point to sell the business as this is part of the onset of profits, but beyond 5.77 years on the other hand represents when the business stops to bringing in profits and leads to losses.

Answers

complete question:

A fountain is made up of two semicircles and a quarter circle. The diameter of the semicircles is 10 ft.  Find the perimeter of the fountain. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.  The picture is represented below.

Answer:

The perimeter of the fountain = 47.1  ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The fountain has 2 semi circle from a smaller circle with the diameter represented as 10 ft and a quarter circle from a bigger circle with the radius equals to 10 ft.

The perimeter is the distance around the fountain.The perimeter is the circumference in circular perspective. Therefore,

perimeter for a full circle = 2πr

Half circle = 2πr/2 = πr

For 2 half circle = πr + πr = 2πr

For 2 half circle = 2πr

r = 10/2 = 5

perimeter for 2 half circle = 2 ×  5 × 3.14 = 31.4  ft

Perimeter for the quarter circle

r = 10 ft

Quarter circle perimeter = 1/4 × 2πr = πr/2

Quarter circle perimeter = (3.14 × 10)/2

Quarter circle perimeter = (31.4)/2

Quarter circle perimeter = 15.7  ft

The perimeter of the fountain = 15.7  ft + 31.4  ft = 47.1  ft

Identify the zero(s) of [tex]f(x)=4x^{2} - 20x - 56[/tex]. -- Urgent 10 minutes! Many points!

Answers

Answer:

x = - 2, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 4x² - 20x - 56

To find the zeros let f(x) = 0, that is

4x² - 20x - 56 = 0 ( divide through by 4 )

x² - 5x - 14 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 7)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

For D', rotating the point (2, 2) 90° counterclockwise. This maps each point (x, y)→(-y, x); it takes (2, 2)→(-2, 2).  

For C'', rotating the point (1, 3) 90° clockwise.  This maps each point (x, y)→(y, -x); it takes (1, 3)→(3, -1).

For A''', rotating the point (-4, 2) 180° clockwise.  This maps every point (x, y)→(-x, -y); it takes (-4, 2)→(4, -2).

Answers

The answer is 65%


(78/120)*100

=65%

The student's mark can be expressed as 65%.

To express the student's mark as a percentage, you need to divide the number of marks obtained by the possible marks and multiply by 100.

In this case, the student got 78 marks out of a possible 120.

Percentage = (Marks Obtained / Possible Marks) * 100

Percentage = (78 / 120) x 100

Percentage = 0.65 x 100

Percentage = 65%

A card is drawn from a normal 52 card deck. The card number and sum are noted, the card is placed back in the deck, then another card is drawn. Find the probability that a) the first card was a queen and the second card as a 10. b) the first card was the Queen of Hearts and the second card was an 8. c) both cards were Jacks. d) the first card was the 5 of Spades and the second card was the Ace of Hearts.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

a) There are 4 Queens in a deck, so the probability the first card is a Queen is 4/52 = 1/13.

There are 4 10s in a deck, so the probability the second card is a 10 is 4/52 = 1/13.

The probability of both events is 1/13 × 1/13 = 1/169.

b) There is 1 Queen of Hearts in a deck, so the probability the first card is a Queen of Hearts is 1/52.

There are 4 8s in a deck, so the probability the second card is a 8 is 4/52 = 1/13.

The probability of both events is 1/52 × 1/13 = 1/676.

c) There are 4 Jacks in a deck, so the probability the first card is a Jack is 4/52 = 1/13.

There are 4 Jacks in a deck, so the probability the second card is a Jack is 4/52 = 1/13.

The probability of both events is 1/13 × 1/13 = 1/169.

d) There is 1 5 of Spades in a deck, so the probability the first card is a 5 of Spades is 1/52.

There is 1 Ace of Hearts in a deck, so the probability the first card is a Ace of Hearts is 1/52.

The probability of both events is 1/52 × 1/52 = 1/2704.
