cluponka [151]

Answer:

x = 31 hundred dolars and

y = 91/2 = 45.5 hundred dolars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

R(x) = (40−8x+5y)*x + (50+9x−7y)*y

C(x) = (40−8x+5y)*10 + (50+9x−7y)*29

We can use the equation

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

where

P(x) is the profit

R(x) is the revenue

and C(x) is the costs

In order to maximize the telephone company's profit, we apply

P'(x) = R(x)' - C(x)' = 0

⇒ R(x)' = ((40−8x+5y)*x + (50+9x−7y)*y)' = (40x-8x²+14xy+50y-7y²)'

⇒ C(x)' = ((40−8x+5y)*10 + (50+9x−7y)*29)' = (1850+181x-153y)'

⇒ P'(x) = -8x²-7y²-141x+203y+14xy-1850

The first-order partial derivatives of these functions are

Px(x,y) = -16x-141+14y

Py(x,y) = -14y+203+14x

Setting these equal to zero and solving we obtain:

-16x+14y-141 = 0

14x-14y+203=0

we get the solution

x = 31 and y = 91/2 = 45.5

Finally, the company should produce 3100 units of the first system, and 4550 units of the second system.

I talk to an average of 8 customers per hour during an 8 hour shift and need to increase the amount of customers i help by 20%,

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The number of customer needed to achieve is 34

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The number of customer per hour = 8

The time taken = 8 hours

The rate of increase = 20 %

Let The increase in number of customer after 20 % increment = x

So , The number of customer after n hours = initial number × $(1+\dfrac{\textrm rate}{100})^{n}$

or, The number of customer after 8 hours = 8 × $(1+\dfrac{\textrm 20}{100})^{8}$

or, The number of customer after 8 hours = 8 × 4.2998

∴The number of customer after 8 hours = 34.39 ≈ 34

Hence The number of customer needed to achieve is 34 answer
