A fertilizer producer finds that it can sell its product at a price of dollars per unit when it produces units of fertilizer. Th

e total production cost (in dollars) for units is If the production capacity of the firm is at most 1000 units of fertilizer in a specified time, how many units must be manufactured and sold in that time to maximize the profit?

Answer:

700

Explanation:

If from the question the price per unit of fertilizer, p(x) = 300 - 0.1x

The cost of x units of  fertilizer = C(x) = 15000 + 125x + 0.025x^2

And we know that Profit = Revenue - Cost

Revenue for x units of fertilizer R(X) = x*p(x)

= 300x - 0.1x^2

Hence Profit: P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

= [300x - 0.1x^2] - [15000 + 125x + 0.025x^2]  

= -0.125x^2 + 175x - 15000

To determine critical values

P'(x) = -0.25x + 175 = 0

Thus x = 175/0.25

x = 700

To maximize profit, the manufactures must produce 700 units of fertilizers

The lineage of pea plants produced round seeds for four generations. The plants that fertilized these pea plants also produced r
adell [148]

Yes, it is possible.

In this case both of the parental plants were heterozygotes and they manifested dominant allele in their phenotype, which is round seed.

P: Aa x Aa

F5: AA, Aa, aA, aa - possible genotypes in fifth generations.

A- dominant allele (round seeds); a- recessive allele (wrinkled seeds)

Wrinkled phenotype is manifested only if there are two recessive alleles present.

If a homozygous black bull is mated with a homozygous white cow and the calf is gray, this could be an example of ___________. H
givi [52]

Answer:

Incomplete dominance

Co-dominance

Explanation:

Gregor Mendel discovered the principles that governs heredity, in which one of them is that an allele called DOMINANT allele, is capable of masking the expression of its variant allele called RECESSIVE allele in a heterozygous state. However, there has been genetic scenarios contrary to this his LAW OF DOMINANCE.

One of those Non-mendelian pattern of inheritance is a phenomenon called INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE, where an allele does not mask the expression of another completely, instead their combined state produces a third intermediate phenotype that is different from both parents. This is the case of the homozygous black bull mated with a homozygous white cow to produce a grey calf. The grey phenotype is an intermediate phenotype of both the black and white colours that forms due to incomplete dominance.

Another genetic scenario is called CO-DOMINANCE, where one allele is neither dominant nor recessive to the other allele, but instead both phenotypes becomes simultaneously expressed in the heterozygous offspring. In this case, the black bull and white cow were mated to form a heterozygous calf with both black and white spots.

There are at least two things related to barb's medical history that may be of interest to a doctor. what are those two things?
Triss [41]

The two things that the doctor may be of interest to barb’s medical history is her hip replacement procedure and her asthma. Although her hip replacement procedure was done long ago but she should still be cautious on her movements especially carrying her grandchildren or bringing heavy load. Moreover, her asthma attack must also be carefully monitored particularly her labored breathing pattern.
