Answer:
a. The number of units which will minimize average cost is approximately 5,130 units.
b. The firm should produce 12,500 items, x, for maximum profit.
c. The number of items, x, that will produce a maximum profit is 60 items.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note: This question is not complete as there are some signs are omitted there. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
1. If the total cost function for a product is C(x) = 200(0.02x + 6)^3 dollars, where x represents the number of hundreds of units produced, producing how many units will minimize average cost?
2. A firm can produce only 3900 units per month. The monthly total cost is given by C(x) = 500 + 200x dollars, where x is the number produced. If the total venue is given by R(x) = 450x-1/100x^2 dollars, how many items, x, should the firm produce for maximum profit?
3. If the profit function for a product is P(x) = 3600x + 60x2 - x3 - 72,000 dollars, selling how many items, x, will produce a maximum profit?
The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:
1. If the total cost function for a product is C(x) = 200(0.02x + 6)3 dollars, where x represents the number of hundreds of units produced, producing how many units will minimize average cost?
Given;
C(x) = 200(0.02x + 6)^3 ……………………………………….. (1)
We first simplify (0.02x + 6)^3 as follows:
(0.02x + 6)^3 = (0.02x + 6)(0.02x + 6)(0.02x + 6)
First, we have:
(0.02x + 6)(0.02x + 6) = 0.004x^2 + 0.12x + 0.12x + 36 = 0.004x^2 + 0.24x + 36
Second, we have:
(0.02x + 6)^3 = 0.004x^2 + 0.24x + 36(0.02x + 6)
(0.02x + 6)^3 = 0.00008x^3 + 0.048x^2 + 7.20x + 0.0024x^2 + 1.44x + 216
(0.02x + 6)^3 = 0.00008x^3 + 0.048x^2 + 0.0024x^2 + 7.20x + 1.44x + 216
(0.02x + 6)^3 = 0.00008x^3 + 0.0504x^2 + 8.64x + 216
Therefore, we have:
C(x) = 200(0.02x + 6)^3 = 200(0.00008x^3 + 0.0504x^2 + 8.64x + 216)
C(x) = 0.016x^3 + 10.08x^2 + 1,728x + 43,200
Therefore, the average cost (AC) can be calculated as follows:
AC(x) = C(x) / x = (0.016x^3 + 10.08x^2 + 1,728x + 43,200) / x
AC(x) = (0.016x^3 + 10.08x^2 + 1,728x + 43,200)x^(-1)
AC(x) = 0.016x^2 + 10.08x + 1,728 + 43,200x^(-1) …………………………. (2)
Taking the derivative of equation (2) with respect to x, equating to 0 and solve for x, we have:
0.032x + 10.08 - (43,300 / x^2) = 0
0.032x + 10.08 = 43,300 / x^2
X^2 * 0.32x = 43,300 – 10.08
0.32x^3 = 43,189.92
x^3 = 43,189.92 / 0.32
x^3 = 134,968.50
x = 134,968.50^(1/3)
x = 51.30
Since it is stated in the question that x represents the number of hundreds of units produced, we simply multiply by 100 as follows:
x = 51.30 * 100 = 5,130
Therefore, the number of units which will minimize average cost is approximately 5,130 units.
2. A firm can produce only 3900 units per month. The monthly total cost is given by C(x) = 500 + 200x dollars, where x is the number produced. If the total revenue is given by R(x) = 450x-1/100x^2 dollars, how many items, x, should the firm produce for maximum profit?
P(x) = R(x) - C(x) ……………. (3)
Where;
P(x) = Profit = ?
R(x) = 450x-1/100x^2
C(x) = 500 + 200x
Substituting the equations into equation (3), we have:
P(x) = 450x - 1/100x^2 - (500 + 200x)
P(x) = 450x - 0.01x^2 - 500 - 200x
P(x) = 450x - 200x - 0.01x^2 - 500
P(x) = 250x - 0.01x^2 – 500 …………………………………. (4)
Taking the derivative of equation (4) with respect to x, equating to 0 and solve for x, we have:
250 - 0.02x = 0
250 = 0.02x
x = 250 / 0.02
x = 12,500 items
Therefore, the firm should produce 12,500 items, x, for maximum profit.
3. If the profit function for a product is P(x) = 3600x + 60x2 – x^3 - 72,000 dollars, selling how many items, x, will produce a maximum profit?
Given;
P(x) = 3600x + 60x2 – x^3 - 72,000 …………………………. (5)
Taking the derivative of equation (5) with respect to x, equating to 0 and solve for x, we have:
3600 + 120x - 3x^2 = 0
Divide through by 3, we have:
1200 + 40x – x^2 = 0
1200 + 60x – 20x – x^2 = 0
60(20 + x) – x(20 + x) = 0
(60 – x)(20 + x) = 0
Therefore,
x = 60, or x = - 20
The negative value of x (i.e. x = - 20) will be will be ignored because it has no economic significance. Therefore, the number of items, x, that will produce a maximum profit is 60 items.

Step-by-step explanation:
If mZMRT = 133º , then which equation can be used to find g?
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that MRT = 133 which means that is the total. Angle MRN and NRT are what makes the total angle which is 133. To find what each angle is individually, we can add them both together.
(2g - 2) + (4q - 9) = 133
6q - 11 = 133
6q = 144
q = 24
Best of Luck!
D. (2g - 2)+(4g -9) = 133
Because,
Given, angle MRT = 133°
and MRN = 2g - 2 °
and NRT = 4g - 9°
and MRT = MRN + NRT .........(equation (i))
Placing values in equation (i) we get,
133° = (2g - 2)° + (4g - 9)°
=> 133 = (2g - 2) + (4g - 9)
=> (2g - 2) + (4g - 9) = 133
g(x) = -4x2 + 4x – 2
What is the maximum or minimum step by step
We want the maximun or minimum of [tex]g(x)=-4x^2+4x-2[/tex]
Firstly, notice that we have a leading coefficient of -4, wich means our parabola is concave down. Thus, our function will have a maximum.
To find what is the maximum, let's firstly find on wich value of x it happens. We'll start by taking the first derivative of the function:
[tex]g'(x)=-8x+4[/tex]
To find the extremes of the function, we just need to find where the derivative equals zero. Setting g'(x)=0 we have
[tex]0 = -8x+4\\8x=4\\x=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
So we found that the x coordinate of the maximum is x=1/2. To find the y coordinate we just need to substitute the value of x into the original function.
[tex]g(1/2)=-4(1/2)^2+4(1/2)-2\\g(1/2)=-1+2-2\\g(1/2) = -1[/tex]
Therefore, the maximum point [tex]M[/tex] of the function is
[tex]\boxed{M=(0.5,-1)}[/tex]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Find a set of parametric equations of the line with the given characteristics. (Enter your answer as a comma-separated list of equations in terms of x, y, z, and t.) The line passes through the point (3, 1, 2) and is parallel to the line given by x = y = z.
Answer:
the set of parametric equations of the line with the given characteristics are; x = t+3, y = t+1, z = t+2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that;
line x = y = z and point ( 3, 1, 2 )
the given line can be written as;
[x-0 / 1] = [y-0 / 1] = [z-0 / 1]
if two lines are parallel directional ratios are equal.
so DIRECTIONAL RATIOS of given line is ( 1, 1, 1 )
therefore required line is;
[x-3 / 1] = [y-1 / 1] = [z-2 / 1] = t
⇒ [x-3 / 1] = t
x = t+3
[y-1 / 1] = t
y = t+1
[z-2 / 1] = t
z = t+2
Therefore the set of parametric equations of the line with the given characteristics are; x = t+3, y = t+1, z = t+2
what is the equation of the line in slope intercept form.

Info:In this activity, you will find out how many cars the baseball team needs to wash before it starts making a profit. The team spent $75 setting up the car wash, and they are charging $5 per car for a wash.
1.The first step in modeling this situation is to track how much money the baseball team will take in. Write an equation to represent the amount of money collected in dollars, y, in terms of the number of cars washed, x. Ignore the setup cost.
2.The equation you wrote in part A accounts for money collected. However, it does not account for the money the baseball team spent to set up the car wash. What do you need to do to the equation in part A to account for the setup cost?
3.Now that you have an idea of how much money the baseball team will collect and how much it will spend, you’re ready to write an equation modeling the situation. Write an equation representing the profit made on the car wash in dollars, y, in terms of the number of cars washed, x, after expenses.
4.You now have an equation to model the finances of the car wash. What is the value of the profit when the baseball team washes 0 cars? What point represents this value? What does the y-value of this point mean in terms of the problem?
5.The baseball team will break even when the amount of money it has received equals the amount of money it spent. In other words, the team breaks even when the profit is equal to zero. How many cars does the baseball team have to wash to break even? What point represents this value? What does the x-value of this point mean in terms of the problem?
Pls help!!!
1. Let y represent the amount of money earned, and x the number of cars they wash. Then
y = 5x
Why? Each car wash costs $5. So no car washes means no earnings; 1 car wash earns $5; 2 washes earn $10; 3 washes earn $15, and so on, so that x car washes generate $5x.
2. No matter how many cars they end up washing, they will have spent $75 to set up the operation, so you subtract 75 from the equation is part (1).
3. Taking into account the setup cost of $75, the profit they make is given by
y = 5x - 75
4. When x = 0, meaning no cars get washed, the profit is -$75, meaning the team loses $75.
5. Set the profit function equal to 0 and solve for x :
5x - 75 = 0
5x = 75
x = 75/5
x = 15
So the team has to wash at least 15 cars to break even.
Answer:
The setup cost is $75. To account for the setup cost, you need to subtract 75 from the right side of the equation obtained in part A.

At a bakery every 4th coustmer recives a free cookie snd every 10th customer recives a free drink. Which customer will be the first to recive a free cookie and a free drink
Answer:
40th costumer
Step-by-step explanation:
The 40th costumer will receive a free cookie and drink. You need to find factors of 4 and factors of 10. Then when you find 4 and 10 have the same factor that’s your answer. So you do 4,8,16,24,32,36,40,44,48, etc. (counting up by 4) now do it to 10,20,30,40,50,60,70, etc. (counting up by 10) Now you notice that the first number that is the same is 40. So that means the 40th costumer will be the first one to receive a free drink and cookie.
Customer first to receive a free cookie and a free drink is 20th number customer
Given that;Number of customer received free cookie = 4th
Number of customer received free drink = 10th
Find:Customer first to receive a free cookie and a free drink
Computation:Customer first to receive a free cookie and a free drink = LCM of 4 and 10
Customer first to receive a free cookie and a free drink = 20th number customer
