Which of the following shows how the number 7 can be rewritten with the difference of squares identity? (16 - 9) = -1(4 + 3)(4 -

3) (16 - 9) = (4 + 3)(4 - 3) (25 - 4) = (5 + 2)(5 - 2) (18 - 11) = (9 + 6)(9 - 5) (64 - 1) = (8 + 1)(8 - 1)

Find the first partial derivative:<br><br> f(x, y) = y^5 -3xy

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Partial derivative is derivative over only 1 variable.
here we have 2 variables so it depends on which variable you want to make partial derivative.

case 1.
df/dx = -3y

case 2
df/dy = 5y^4 - 3x

Find the quantity q that maximizes profit if the total revenue, R(q), and total cost, C(q) are given in dollars by R(q)=3q−0.002

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The value of q that maximize the profit is q=200 units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The profit is equal to the revenue minus the cost

we have

$R(q)=3q-0.002q^{2}$ ---> the revenue

$C(q)=200+2.2q$ ---> the cost

The profit P(q) is equal to

$P(q)=R(q)-C(q)$

substitute the given values

$P(q)=(3q-0.002q^{2})-(200+2.2q)$

$P(q)=3q-0.002q^{2}-200-2.2q$

$P(q)=-0.002q^{2}+0.8q-200$

This is a vertical parabola open downward (because the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex represent a maximum

The x-coordinate of the vertex represent the value of q that maximize the profit

The y-coordinate of the vertex represent the maximum profit

using a graphing tool

Graph the quadratic equation

The vertex is the point (200,-120)

see the attached figure

therefore

The value of q that maximize the profit is q=200 units

An employment agency requires applicants average at least 70% on a battery of four job skills tests. If an applicant scored 70%,

brilliants [131]

Answer:

atleast 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that an employment agency requires applicants average at least 70% on a battery of four job skills tests.

An applicant scored 70%, 77%, and 81% on the first three exams,

Since weightages are not given we can assume all exams have equal weights

Let x be the score on the 4th test

Then total of all 4 exams = $70+77+81+x\\= 228+x$

Average should exceed 70%

i.e. $\bar X \geq 70\\Total\geq 70(4) =280$

Comparing the two totals we have

$228+x\geq 280\\x\geq 280-228 = 52$

Hemust score on the fourth test a score atleast 52 to maintain a 70% or better average.

In a second grade class containing 13 girls and 10 boys, 2 students are selected at random to give out the math papers. what is

Natali5045456 [20]

The fact that the first chosen student was a girl is already decided, so there is no need to find the probability of that happening. There are a total of 13+10, or 23 students. A girl was already selected, so that leaves 22 students. The chance that a boy is chosen is 10/22, or 5/11.
