Suppose that the manufacturer of a gas clothes dryer has found that, when the unit price is p dollars, the revenue R (in dollars) is R(P) = - 8p^2 + 24,000p. What unit
price should be established for the dryer to maximize revenue? What is the maximum revenue?
The unit price that should be established to maximize revenue is $|
(Simplify your answer.)

Answers

Answer 1

Here we have a problem of maximization and quadratic equations.

The unit prize that maximizes the revenue is $1,500, and the maximum revenue is $18,000.

We know that the revenue equation is:

R(P) = - 8p^2 + 24,000p

Where the variable p is the price.

Now we want to find the value of p that maximizes the revenue.

To do it, we can see that the revenue equation is a quadratic equation with a negative leading coefficient.

This means that the arms of the graph will go downwards, then the maximum point of the graph will be at the vertex.

Remember that for an equation like:

y = a*x^2 + b*x+ c

The x-value of the vertex is at:

x = -b/(2*a)

Then for the equation:

R(P) = - 8p^2 + 24,000p

The vertex is at:

p = -(24,000)/(2*-8) = 1,500

The value of p that maximizes the revenue is p = $1,500

To get the maximum revenue, we need to evaluate the revenue equation in that p value.

R(1,500) =  - 8*(1,500)^2 + 24,000*1,500 = 18,000

And the revenue equation is in dollars, then the maximum revenue is 18,000 dollars.

Answer 2

p = 1500  $    the unit price

R(p) = 18000000 $ maximum revenue

We will use two different procedures to calculate the maximum revenue.

That is equivalent to solve the problem and after that to test the solution

The first one is:

R(p) = - 8*p² + 24000*p

we realize that R(p) is a quadratic function ( a parabola) of the form:

y = a*x² + b*x + c    ( c = 0 in this case)

We also know that  as the coefficient of p² is negative the parabola opens downwards then the vertex is a maximum value for R(p), and the x coordinate of p is:

x = p =  - b/2*a   then by substitution

p = - ( 24000)/ 2 ( - 8)

p = 1500  $   and for that value of p

R(p) = - 8 ( 1500)² + 24000* (1500)  = - 18000000 + 36000000

R(p) = 18000000 $

The second procedure is solving with the help of derivatives.

R(p) =  - 8*p² + 24000*p

Tacking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get:

R´(p) = -16p  +  24000

If R´(p) = 0    then    -16p  +  24000 = 0

p = 24000/ 16         p  =  1500

if we check for the second derivative

R´´(p) = -16          -16 < 0  therefore there is a maximum value for R(p) when p = 1500, and that value is:

By substitution in R(p)

R(p) = -8 *(1500)² + 24000* 1500

R(p) =  - 18000000 + 36000000

R(p) = 18000000 $

Factorise 24e^2-28e-12

Answers

Answer:

4(2e - 3)(3e + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

24e² - 28e - 12 ← factor out 4 from each term

= 4(6e² - 7e - 3) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the product of the e² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the e- term.

product = 6 × - 3 = - 18 and sum = - 7

The factors are - 9 and + 2

Use these factors to split the e- term

6e² - 9e + 2e - 3 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 3e(2e - 3) + 1 (2e - 3) ← factor out (2e - 3) from each term

= (2e - 3)(3e + 1)

Then

24e² - 28e - 12 = 4(2e - 3)(3e + 1) ← in factored form

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert 0.113 to a fraction...113/1000

2. As there is no further simplification needed, add 8 to 113/1000....8 113/1000

3. To convert 8 113/1000 from a mixed number to an improper fraction, multiply 8 (the whole number) and 1,000(the denominator)...8,000. Then add 113 (the numerator) to 8,000...8113.

1 3/8

Answers

3/2

Step One: 1 3/8, transform the number into a improper fraction:

To have a mixed number in to a improper fraction, you need to use            addition and multiplication.  For 1 3/8, We first multiply the denominator (8, also know to be the bottom number of the fraction) to the whole number (1).  8x1= 8NOTE: The original denominator (8) will be use for are improper, again playing as the denominator, we only multiply the denominator for the numerator (which is the top number of a fraction).After multiplying, we'll add are product with the numerator (3) for the process. 8+3= 12 Now we have both numerator and denominator for 1 3/8, we can create the improper fraction. 12 as the numerator and 8 as the denominator. 12/8We still need to simplify the number. To that, we need the biggest whole number, or rather I call it the lowest number, that can be divide both in 12 and 8. 4 can be divide by both number so: 12/4= 3 and 8/4=2Now 3 is are simplify numerator and 2 is are simplify denominator.

If L(t) = ⟨5 + t, 1 + 5t⟩, then the tangent vector to L(t) is

Any line parallel to L(t) will have the same tangent vector, up to some scalar factor (that is, if the tangent vector is a multiple of ⟨1, 5⟩).

Any line r(t) with tangent vector T(t) = dr/dt that is perpendicular to L(t) will satisfy

T(t) • ⟨1, 5⟩ = 0

• r(t) = ⟨-5, -2t, 1 - 10t⟩ is parallel to L(t) because its tangent vector is

T(t) = ⟨-2, -10⟩ = -2 ⟨1, 5⟩

• r(t) = ⟨1 + 1.5t, 3 + 7.5t⟩ is parallel to L(t) because

T(t) = ⟨1.5, 7.5⟩ = 1.5 ⟨1, 5⟩

• r(t) = ⟨-2 - t, 2 - 2t⟩ is neither parallel nor perpendicular to L(t) because

T(t) = ⟨-1, -2⟩ ≠ k ⟨1, 5⟩

for any real k (in other words, there is no k such that -1 = k and -2 = 5k), and

⟨-1, -2⟩ • ⟨1, 5⟩ = -1 - 10 = -11 ≠ 0

Exercise "position and instantaneous velocity"

(Full development)

Answers

(A) The blue line has a slope of 5/2, red has slope 4/4 = 1, and purple has slope 3/9 = 1/3.

To find the slope, take any two points (a, b) and (c, d) on the line, then

slope = (d - b)/(c - a)

i.e. the ratio between the changes in the y and x coordinates.

(B) Each line has equation

• blue: y = 5/2 x

• red: y = x

• purple: y = 1/3 x

This follows from the general equation for a line with slope m and y-intercept b,

y = mx + b

or from the more general equation for a line with slope m passing through a point (a, b),

y - b = m (x - a)

(C) Consider the blue line. If you take units into account, its slope is

(5 units of distance)/(2 units of time) = 5/2 (units of distance/time)

which means, per unit time, some object travels a 5/2 units of distance, and this is the definition of speed.

(D) The competitor with the blue line, Mary, would win the race because their speed is the highest (5/2 > 1 > 1/3).

(E) Average velocity is defined as

v (ave) = ∆d/∆t = (change in distance)/(change in time)

At time 0, no one has moved yet. At time 4,

• Mary has covered a distance of 5/2 × 4 = 10, giving her an average velocity of (10 - 0)/(4 - 0) = 5/2

• Mike has covered a distance of 4, so his average velocity is (4 - 0)/(4 - 0) = 1

• Sam has covered a distance of 1/3 × 4 = 4/3, so his average velocity is (4/3 - 0)/(4 - 0) = 1/3

It's not a coincidence that the average velocities are the same as the slopes, because each racer travels at a constant speed.

(F) The racers' instantaneous velocities are the same as their respective average velocities, again because they are each moving at a constant speed.

What is Geometric progression?

A geometric progression is a special type of progression where the successive terms bear a constant ratio known as a common ratio. It is also known as GP. The GP is generally represented in form a, ar, ar2.... where a is the first term and r is the common ratio of the progression. The common ratio can have both negative as well as positive values. To find the terms of a geometric series, we only need the first term and the constant ratio.

The geometric progression is of two types. They are

finite geometric progression andinfinite geometric progression.

Given:

x,3,−1/3

First term, a

second term

ar= 3

a= 3/r

third term

ar² = -1/3

a= -1/3r²

So,

3/r= - 1/3r²

9r= 1

r= 1/9

So,

ar= 3

a= 27.
