The profit that a company makes selling an item (in thousands of dollars) depends on the price of the item (in dollars). If p is the price of the item, then three equivalent forms for the profit are

Standard form: - 2 p^2 + 24p - 54

Factored form: -2(p - 3)(y-9)

Vertex form: -2(p-6)^2 + 18.

Which form is most useful for finding a. The prices that give a profit of zero dollars?

b. The profit when the price is zero?

c. The price that gives the maximum profit?​

The Profit That A Company Makes Selling An Item (in Thousands Of Dollars) Depends On The Price Of The

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the profit of a company made by the company is in the form a quadratic expressions but in the different forms as given in the question.

a). The prices that give a profit of zero dollars.

    Expression that is most useful,

    Factored form: -2(p - 3)(p - 9) = 0

    p = 3, 9

b). The profit when the price is zero .

    Standard form:

    Profit = -2p² + 24p - 54 = 0

    -p² + 12p - 27 = 0

    -p² + 3p + 9p - 27 = 0

    -p(p - 3) + 9(p -3) = 0

     (-p + 9)(p - 3) = 0

     p = 3, 9

c). The price that gives the maximum profit.

   Vertex form: -2(p - 6)² + 18

   Vertex of the given expression → (6, 18)

   Maximum profit will be at p = 6.

   Therefore, profit = -2(6 - 6)² + 18 = 18

Answers

Answer:

6xsinx + 3x²cosx

Step-by-step explanation:

Differentiate using the product rule

Given y = f(x)(g(x) , then

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] = f(x)g'(x) + g(x)f'(x)

Here f(x) = sinx ⇒ f'(x) = cosx

g(x) = 3x² ⇒ g'(x) = 6x

Thus

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] = 6xsinx + 3x²cosx

Courtney and Malik are buying a rug to fit in a

purchase? Explain.
$99 Rug Sale!
7 ft x 7 ft
8 ft diameter
6 ft x 8ft
Rug Emporium has your floors covered.

Answers

Answer:

I think its 7x7 because it equals to 49 and its the closest to 50 and the rug would fit better than 6x 8 1/2=51 becuase 49 is smaller and would fit better.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a 2D form is the amount of space within its perimeter. The correct option is B, 8ft diameter.

What is an area?

The area of a 2D form is the amount of space within its perimeter. It is measured in square units such as cm², m², and so on. To find the area of a square formula or another quadrilateral, multiply its length by its width.

Since Courtney and Malik want the rug to fit in an area of 50-square-foot space. Therefore, we need to first calculate the area of the given rugs, and then choose the one that can completely cover the area.

7 ft x 7 ft → Area = 7 ft x 7 ft = 49 ft²8 ft diameter → Area = (π/4)×Diameter² = (π/4)×(8ft²) = 50.2654 ft² 6 ft x 8ft → Area = 6 ft x 8ft = 48 ft²

Now, as it can be seen that the only rug that can completely cover the 50-square-foot area is the one that has a diameter of 8 ft.

Hence, the correct option is B, 8ft diameter.

A cube has a volume of 216 cubic inches. What is the length of each edge of the cube?

Answers

Volume of a cube = (edge)^3

In this problem,

Volume = 216in^2

Edge = ?

Let's plug our values into the formula above.

216in^3 = (edge)^3

Take the cbrt of both sides.

6in = edge

The length of each edge = 6in

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\tt 6 \ centimeters}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube can be found using the following formula:

[tex]v=s^3[/tex]

where [tex]s[/tex] is the side length, or edge.

We know the volume is 216 cubic inches. We can substitute 216 cm³ in for [tex]v[/tex], the volume.

[tex]216 \ cm^3 = s^3[/tex]

We want to find the side length. Therefore, we must isolate the variable, [tex]s[/tex].

s is being cubed. The inverse of a cube is the cube root. Take the cube root of both sides of the equation.

[tex]\sqrt[3]{216 \ cm^3} =\sqrt[3]{s^3}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt[3]{216 \ cm^3} =s[/tex]

[tex]6 \ cm=s[/tex]

The length of each edge of the cube is 6 centimeters.

From G to I is the total distance of the line (92). G to H is the first portion of the line (72) while H to I is the other portion.

To find H to I, simply subtract 72 from 92!
