Answer:
11 boxed lunches
Step-by-step explanation:
Full question
Janie ordered boxed lunches for a student advisory committee meeting. Each lunch cost 4.25. The total cost of the lunches is 53.75, including a 7$ delivery fee. Write and solve an equation to find x the number of boxed lunches Janie ordered
First of all subtract the delivery feesince it was inckuded in the total cost, this will now be the total cost of all the noxed lunches ordered by Janie, then divide the balance of the total cost by the cost of one boxed lunch to get thd total boxed kunches
X= 53.75-7/4.25
X= 53.75-7= 46.75/4.25
X=11
Answer:
Cross price elasticity using midpoint method = 0.56
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the mid-point method
Cross-price Elasticity of Demand = <u>% change in Quantity demanded of UPS</u>
% change of price of FedEx
%change in Quantity demanded of UPS
using Mid-point method = <u> Q2-Q1 </u> × 100
(Q1+Q2)÷ 2
= <u>1.3-1.2 </u> × 100
(1.2+1.3)÷2
= <u>0.1 </u> × 100
1.25
= 8%
% change in price of FedEx
using midpoint method =<u> P2-P1 </u>× 100
(P1+P2)÷ 2
=<u> 75-65 </u>× 100
(65+75)÷2
=<u> 10 </u> × 100
70
= 14.28%
Cross-price Elasticity of Demand = 8% ÷ 14.28%
using midpoint method = 0.56
Answer:
ft/min is the rate of changing of width
Step-by-step explanation:
Given -
The area always remain constant i.2 2 square feet.
Height of the rectangle = 2 feet
Rate of changing of height = 6 feet per minute
Since area is constant
2 sq ft = (2 * 6) ft/min * 1 * x ft/min
x =
ft/min
Answer:
The value of x that gives the maximum transmission is 1/√e ≅0.607
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets call f the rate function f. Note that f(x) = k * x^2ln(1/x), where k is a positive constant (this is because f is proportional to the other expression). In order to compute the maximum of f in (0,1), we derivate f, using the product rule.

We need to equalize f' to 0
- k*(2x ln(1/x) - x) = 0 -------- We send k dividing to the other side
- 2x ln(1/x) - x = 0 -------- Now we take the x and move it to the other side
- 2x ln(1/x) = x -- Now, we send 2x dividing (note that x>0, so we can divide)
- ln(1/x) = x/2x = 1/2 ------- we send the natural logarithm as exp
- 1/x = e^(1/2)
- x = 1/e^(1/2) = 1/√e ≅ 0.607
Thus, the value of x that gives the maximum transmission is 1/√e.
