Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic model for this growth is the exponential function:  y = a(b)^c, where a is the initial value, b is the growth rate and c is the time.

Here we have P = fish population = (2 fish)(3)^t

The Polk Company reported that the average age of a car on U.S. roads in a recent year was 7.5 years. Suppose the distribution o
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

The standard deviation of car age is 2.17 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 7.5

(a) If 99.7% of the ages are between 1 year and 14 years, what is the standard deviation of car age?

This means that 1 is 3 standard deviations below the mean and 14 is 3 standard deviations above the mean.

So

14 = 7.5 + 3\sigma

I want to find \sigma

3\sigma = 6.5

\sigma = \frac{6.5}{3}

\sigma = 2.17

The standard deviation of car age is 2.17 years.

Define a function f on a set of real numbers as follows: f(x) = 3x − 1 x , for each real number x ≠ 0 Prove that f is one-to-one
dalvyx [7]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

f(x)=\frac{3x-1}{x}

For each real number x\neq 0

To prove that f is one -to-one.

Proof:Let x_1 and x_2 be any nonzero real numbers such that

f(x_1)=f(x_2)

By using the definition of f to rewrite the left hand side of this equation

f(x_1)=\frac{3x_1-1}{x_1}

Then, by using the definition of f to rewrite the right hand side of this equation  of f(x_1)=f(x_2)

f(x_2)=\frac{3x_2-1}{x_2}

Equating the expression then we get

\frac{3x_1-1}{x_1}=\frac{3x_2-1}{x_2}

3x_1x_2-x_2=3x_2x_1-x_1

3x_1x_2-3x_1x_2+x_1=x_2

x_1=x_2

Therefore, f is one-to-one.

Marginal cost At a certain factory the marginal cost is 3(q-4)^2 dollars per unit when the level of production is q units.
viktelen [127]

Answer:

a.) C(q) =  -(1/4)*q^3 +  3q^2  -  12q + OH          b.) $170

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Marginal cost is defined as the decrease or increase in total production cost if output is increased by one more unit. Mathematically:

Marginal cost (MC) = change in total cost/change in quantity

Therefore, to derive the equation for total production cost, we need to integrate the equation of marginal cost with respect to quantity. Thus:

Total cost (C) = Integral [3(q-4)^2] dq = -(1/4)*(q-4)^3 + k

where k is a constant.

The overhead (OH) = C(0) = -(1/4)*(0-4)^3 + k = -16 + k

C(q) = -(1/4)*(q^3  - 12q^2  + 48q - 64) + k = -(1/4)*q^3 +  3q^2  -  12q  -16 + k

Thus:

C(q) =  -(1/4)*q^3 +  3q^2  -  12q + OH

(b) C(14) = -(1/4)*14^3 +  3*14^2  -  12*14 + 436 = -686 + 588 - 168 + 436 = $170
