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

Studentka2010 [4]
The answers are as follows:
1. <span>An inhibitor has a structure that is so similar to the substrate that it can bond to the enzyme just like the substrate: t</span>his is called competitive inhibitor. A competitive inhibitor will compete with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme and bind to the active site, thus incapacitating the substrate from binding to the active site.
2.  An inhibitor binds to a site on the enzyme that is not the active site: this is called non competitive inhibitors. Non competitive inhibitors bind to other site in the enzyme which is not the active site of the enzyme. The binding of the inhibitor changes the conformation of the enzyme as well as the active site, thus making it impossible for the substrate to bind to the enzyme effectively.
3. <span>usually, a(n) inhibitor forms a covalent bond with an amino acid side group within the active site, which prevents the substrate from entering the active site or prevents catalytic activity: this is called irreversible or permanent inhibition. Permanent inhibitors form covalent bonds with the enzyme and prevent substrate from binding to the enzyme.
4. T</span><span>he competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate for the ACTIVE SITE on the enzyme: The active site of an enzyme is the place where the substrate normally bind in order to activate a enzyme. Competitive inhibitors are those inhibitors that compete with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme and prevent the substrate from binding there.
5. W</span><span>hen the noncompetitive inhibitor is bonded to the enzyme, the shape of the ENZYME is distorted. The non competitive inhibitors are those inhibitors that bind to other places in the enzyme instead of the active site. The binding of the non competitive inhibitor usually distort the shape and the conformation of the enzyme thus preventing the substrate from binding to it effectively.
6. E</span><span>nzyme inhibitors disrupt normal interactions between an enzyme and its SUBSTRATE. The principal function of enzyme inhibitor is to prevent the substrate from binding to the appropriate enzyme. This is usually done in the human system in order to regulate the activities of enzymes.</span>

What structure on the human body is comparable to the alula?
melomori [17]
The alula is a small structure that is found on birds. It is located at the joint between the hand wing and the arm wings of birds and it is the freely moving, first digit of a bird's wing. It is normally used by birds in slow flight. In humans, the structure that is comparable to the alula is the thumb.

To make new cells, humans undergo a process of cell division called mitosis. Before a cell goes through cell division (mitosis),
sashaice [31]

Before a cell goes through cell division (mitosis), it must grow and make a copy of its DNA which is termed as an Inter-phase.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Some tasks must be carried out by the cells before they undergo division: The cell must grow, it must copy the genetic material (DNA) present in it, and  divide into two daughter cells. These steps carried out by cells are termed as  cell cycle.

Cells that contains a nucleus or Eukaryota cells, there are two major phases called interphase and the mitotic (M) phase. that comprises the cell cycle.

In  inter-phase, growth of the cell and making a copy of its DNA is carried out.

In mitotic (M) phase, the cell separation of the DNA in the cell into two sets and division of its cytoplasm takes place resulting in the formation of two new cells.

Madge” was found wandering the streets of New Jersey. She was brought to the attention of a licensed clinical social worker beca
Effectus [21]

Answer:

Madge is likely to have schizophrenia.

Explanation:

Schizophrenia is a mental disorder that causes an individual to suffer delusions and hallucinations that cause totally abnormal and parranoic behaviors.

As has already been said, schizophrenia causes altered and abnormal behaviors, confused thoughts and difficulties in adapting to reality. It is a very disabling disease and can cause an individual to completely lose control of his mental faculties.

Madge's behavior shows that he has confused thoughts, paranoid behaviors and loss of reality, so we can say that he is likely to have schizophrenia.
