soldier1979 [14.2K]

$x = f ( p ) = \frac { 100 } { 9 } \sqrt { 810,000 - p ^ { 2 } } } \\\\ \qquad { p ( t ) = \dfrac { 400 } { 1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { t } } + 200 \quad ( 0 \leq t \leq 60 ) }$

Answer:

12.0 tablet computers/month

Step-by-step explanation:

The average price of the tablet 25 months from now will be:

$p ( 25) = \dfrac { 400 } { 1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { 25 } } + 200 \\= \dfrac { 400 } { 1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \times 5 } + 200\\\\=\dfrac { 400 } { 1 + \dfrac { 5 } { 8 } } + 200\\p(25)=\dfrac { 5800 } {13}$

Next, we determine the rate at which the quantity demanded changes with respect to time.

Using Chain Rule (and a calculator)

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}= \dfrac{dx}{dp}\dfrac{dp}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dx}{dp}= \dfrac{d}{dp}\left[{ \dfrac { 100 } { 9 } \sqrt { 810,000 - p ^ { 2 } } }\right] =-\dfrac{100}{9}p(810,000-p^2)^{-1/2}$

$\dfrac{dp}{dt}=\dfrac{d}{dt}\left[\dfrac { 400 } { 1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { t } } + 200 \right]=-25\left[1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { t } \right]^{-2}t^{-1/2}$

Therefore:

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}= \left[-\dfrac{100}{9}p(810,000-p^2)^{-1/2}\right]\left[-25\left[1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { t } \right]^{-2}t^{-1/2}\right]$

Recall that at t=25, $p(25)=\dfrac { 5800 } {13} \approx 446.15$

Therefore:

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}(25)= \left[-\dfrac{100}{9}\times 446.15(810,000-446.15^2)^{-1/2}\right]\left[-25\left[1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt {25} \right]^{-2}25^{-1/2}\right]\\=12.009$

The quantity demanded per month of the tablet computers will be changing at a rate of 12 tablet computers/month correct to 1 decimal place.

Reptile [31]

Answer:

Yes, 10.5 cm, 8.0 cm and 4.0 cm can be the side lengths of a triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given three lengths as 10.5 cm, 8.0 cm and 4.0 cm. We are asked to determine whether these side can be the side lengths of a triangle.

We will use triangle inequality theorem to solve our given problem.

Triangle inequality theorem states that sum of two sides of a triangle must be greater than 3rd side. Using triangle inequality theorem we will get 3 inequalities as:

$10.5+8.0>4.0$

$18.5>4.0$ True

$8.0+4.0>10.5$

$12.0>10.5$ True

$10.5+4.0>8.0$

$14.5>8.0$ True

Since all the three side lengths satisfy triangle inequality theorem, therefore, 10.5 cm, 8.0 cm and 4.0 cm can be the side lengths of a triangle.

Pirate Jack has an equal number of gold and silver coins. If Pirate Jack splits all of his coins into 7 equal piles for his parr

Kipish [7]

Answer:

The least possible number of coins that Pirate Jack has is 77.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) let the number of coins in the piles for the parrots be x.

ii) therefore we can say that the total number of coins be 7x + 4

iii) let the number of coins in the piles for for the pirates be y.

iv) therefore we can say that the total number of coins be 11y + 4

v) therefore we can say that 7x + 4 = 11y + 4

vi) therefore 7x = 11y

vii) therefore the least possible number of coins that Pirate Jack has is equal to the LCM of 11 and 7 which is 77.

viii) x = 11 and y = 7

What is the value of y in the following system y= 3x-5 6x+3y=15

Misha Larkins [42]

X=2. You use substitution to put the y=3x-5 into 6x+3y=15.
So you get 6x+3(3x-5)=15
=6x+9x-15=15
add 15 on both sides to get the x's alone and add the x's together.
6+9=15 -- 15+15=30
15x=30
30/15 =2
x=2
