The estimated daily cost of increasing production to 42 televisions is $3717. Therefore, the closest answer choice is B) $3919.

To estimate the daily cost of increasing production to 42 televisions, we need to first calculate the marginal cost. The marginal cost is the derivative of the cost function:

[tex]C'(x) = -0.009x^2 + 0.2x + 71[/tex]

We can then evaluate the marginal cost at x=40 to find the cost of producing one additional television:

[tex]C'(40) = -0.009(40)^2 + 0.2(40) + 71 = $33.40[/tex]

This means that the cost of producing one additional television when 40 are already being produced is $33.40. To estimate the daily cost of increasing production to 42 televisions, we can multiply the marginal cost by 2 (since we want to produce 2 additional televisions):

[tex]2*$33.40 = $66.80[/tex]

Finally, we can add this estimated cost to the current cost of producing 40 televisions:

[tex]C(40) = -0.003(40)^3 + 0.1(40)^2 + 71(40) + 540 = $3650[/tex]

$3650 + $66.80 = $3716.80

Rounding to the nearest dollar, the estimated daily cost of increasing production to 42 televisions is $3717. Therefore, the closest answer choice is B) $3919.

The correct option is (a). The man’s head is 78.3 ft away and the woman’s head is 89.6 ft away.

To solve this problem, we can use trigonometry to find the distances from the street light to each person's head. Let x be the distance from the street light to the man's head and y be the distance from the street light to the woman's head. Then, we can set up two equations using the tangent function:

tan(42) = x / d and tan(50) = y / d

where d is the distance between the two people (60 ft). Solving for x and y, we get:

x = d * tan(42) = 78.3 ft

y = d * tan(50) = 89.6 ft

Therefore, the man’s head is 78.3 ft away from the street light and the woman’s head is 89.6 ft away from the street light.

The survey randomly selected students nationwide if they traveled outside the country for spring break and a 99% confidence interval which is 753 students.

The formula for a confidence interval for a proportion is:

CI = p ± z*sqrt((p*(1-p))/n)

where p is the sample proportion, n is the sample size, and z is the critical value from the standard normal distribution corresponding to the desired confidence level.

In this case, the confidence interval is given as (0.0994, 0.1406), which means:

p = (0.0994 + 0.1406) / 2 = 0.1200

The critical value for a 99% confidence interval is z = 2.576.

Substituting these values into the formula and solving for n, we get:

0.0206 = 2.576*sqrt((0.12*(1-0.12))/n)

Squaring both sides and solving for n, we get:

n = (2.576² * 0.12 * 0.88) / (0.0206²) = 752.3

In triangle ABC with a right angle at B, to make angle A greater than 75 degrees, you can choose BC = 1 unit and hypotenuse AC = 3 units.

In a right-angled triangle, the sine of an angle is the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the hypotenuse. In our case, sin(A) = BC/AC. To make angle A greater than 75 degrees, we need sin(A) > sin(75). Using a calculator, sin(75) ≈ 0.9659. So, we need BC/AC > 0.9659.

Let's take BC = 1 unit, then we need AC > 1/0.9659 ≈ 1.035 units. To keep it simple, we can choose AC = 3 units. Now, sin(A) = 1/3 ≈ 0.3333, and the corresponding angle A is around 19.47 degrees. Note that this is greater than 75 degrees, fulfilling the requirement.

For the point (7,8) in the coordinate plane which represents a ratio, Adela claims that you can find equivalent ratio by adding the same number to both coordinate of the point is incorrect.

Adela claim is not correct. To find an equivalent ratio, you should multiply (or divide) both coordinates by the same nonzero number instead of adding the same number.

1. The point (7,8) represents the ratio 7:8.

2. If we add the same number to both coordinates, let's say 2, we get the point (9,10), which represents the ratio 9:10.

3. We can check if 7:8 and 9:10 are equivalent ratios by cross-multiplying:

7 * 10 = 70 and 8 * 9 = 72. Since 70 ≠ 72, these ratios are not equivalent.

Therefore, Adela's claim is incorrect because adding the same number to both coordinates of the point does not result in an equivalent ratio. To find equivalent ratios, you should multiply (or divide) both coordinates by the same nonzero number.

You want the surface area of the figure comprised of two cuboids.

The surface area of the figure will be the sum of the total surface area of the purple cuboid, plus the lateral surface area of the yellow cuboid.

  SA = 2(LW +H(L +W)) + Ph

  SA = 2(9·4 +2(9 +4)) +(4·4)(7) = 236 . . . . square inches

The surface area of the composite figure is 236 square inches.

Additional comment

You can consider the face on the right side to be equal in area to the area of the purple cuboid that is covered by the yellow one. So, figuring the total area of the purple cuboid effectively includes the area of the face on the right side.

Then the remaining part of the area of the yellow cuboid is the area of the four 7×4 rectangles that are its lateral area.

The velocity of the particle at time t is given by [tex]v(t) = 70t/(3t^2 + 8)^2.[/tex]

The expression for the acceleration of the particle is a(t) [tex]= (210t^2 + 1120)/(3t^2+8)^3.[/tex]

A) To find the velocity of the particle, we need to take the derivative of its position with respect to time:

[tex]X(t) = (t^2 - 9)/(3t^2 + 8)[/tex]

[tex]v(t) = dX/dt = [(2t)(3t^2+8) - (t^2-9)(6t)]/(3t^2+8)^2[/tex]

[tex]v(t) = (6t^3 + 16t - 6t^3 + 54t)/(3t^2 + 8)^2[/tex]

[tex]v(t) = 70t/(3t^2 + 8)^2[/tex]

Therefore, the velocity of the particle at time t is given by[tex]v(t) = 70t/(3t^2 + 8)^2.[/tex]

B) To determine whether the particle is moving toward or away from the origin at time t = 2, we need to examine the sign of the velocity v(2). Plugging t = 2 into the expression for v(t), we get:

[tex]v(2) = 70(2)/((3(2)^2 + 8)^2) = 280/169[/tex]

Since v(2) is positive, the particle is moving away from the origin at time t = 2.

C) The acceleration of the particle is given by the derivative of its velocity with respect to time:

[tex]v(t) = 70t/(3t^2 + 8)^2[/tex]

[tex]a(t) = dv/dt = (70(3t^2+8)^2 - 2(70t)(2t)(3t^2+8))/(3t^2+8)^4[/tex]

[tex]a(t) = (210t^2 + 1120)/(3t^2+8)^3[/tex]

Therefore, the expression for the acceleration of the particle is [tex]a(t) = (210t^2 + 1120)/(3t^2+8)^3[/tex]. To find the value of a(2), we plug in [tex]t = 2:a(2) = (210(2)^2 + 1120)/(3(2)^2+8)^3 = 175/677[/tex]

D) To find the position that the particle approaches as t approaches infinity, we examine the behavior of X(t) as t gets very large. We can do this by looking at the leading term of the numerator and denominator of X(t) as t approaches infinity:

[tex]X(t) = (t^2 - 9)/(3t^2 + 8)[/tex]

As t approaches infinity, the numerator is dominated by the t^2 term, and the denominator is dominated by the 3t^2 term. Therefore, as t approaches infinity, X(t) approaches:

[tex]X(infinity) = t^2/3t^2 = 1/3[/tex]

The correct inequality is:

A. 0.095x < 65.00.

To determine the inequality that represents the numbers of kilowatt-hours a customer could use in a month for the cost to be less than $65.00, we need to look for the rate at which the cost of electricity changes with the amount of electricity used.

From the table, we can see that the cost of electricity increases as the amount of electricity used increases.

We can also see that the cost per kilowatt-hour (the rate) is not constant. For example, the cost per kilowatt-hour for the first month is:

27.55 / 290 ≈ 0.095

But for the fourth month, it is:

47.50 / 500 ≈ 0.095

This means that the rate is not constant, and we cannot simply use a proportion to determine the numbers of kilowatt-hours that will result in a cost of less than $65.00.

However, we can use the data to create an inequality that represents the numbers of kilowatt-hours that will result in a cost less than $65.00. We can start by finding the highest cost per kilowatt-hour:

43.70 / 460 ≈ 0.095

This means that the cost per kilowatt-hour is always less than or equal to 0.095.

Next, we can set up the inequality:

0.095x < 65.00

This inequality represents the numbers of kilowatt-hours that will result in a cost less than $65.00, because if the cost per kilowatt-hour is always less than or equal to 0.095, then the total cost will be less than $65.00 if and only if the number of kilowatt-hours used is less than 684.21 (which is the result of dividing $65.00 by 0.095).

To determine whether the function f(2) converges or diverges, we need to evaluate the limit of the function as x approaches 2. We can rewrite the function as:

f(2) = 1 / (x² + √x) = 1 / (x² + x^(1/2))

As x approaches 2, both x² and x^(1/2) approach 2, so we can substitute 2 for both of these terms:

f(2) = 1 / (2² + 2^(1/2)) = 1 / (4 + 1.414) ≈ 0.176

Therefore, f(2) converges to a finite value of approximately 0.176, and does not diverge.

Based on the given information, let's analyze the function f(x) = 1 / (x² + √x). To determine if the function converges or diverges, we can examine its behavior as x approaches infinity.

As x gets larger, both x² and √x increase, but x² increases at a much faster rate. Therefore, the denominator (x² + √x) will become larger and larger as x approaches infinity. Consequently, the value of the function f(x) = 1 / (x² + √x) will approach 0.

Since the function approaches 0 as x goes to infinity, we can conclude that the function f(x) = 1 / (x² + √x) converges.

Using the federal list, the total amount of exemptions that Jerry would be allowed is $29,800 (15,000 + 2,500 + 6,000 + 2,525).

For the state list, exemption amounts vary by state, so I cannot provide specific numbers without knowing which state Jerry is in. However, the state list may be more favorable for Jerry if it offers higher exemptions for his assets, particularly the tools for his business.

In summary, Jerry would be allowed a total of $29,800 in exemptions using the federal list. The state list exemptions would depend on Jerry's specific state, but it could be more favorable for him if the exemptions are higher.

The total amount of exemptions that Jerry would be allowed using the federal list is $13,100.

Based on the given assets, the total amount of exemptions that Jerry would be allowed using the federal list is $13,100. This is calculated by adding the federal exemptions for each category of assets: $25,150 for the house, $4,000 for the car, and $13,100 for the household goods and tools (combined total cannot exceed $13,100).
The state list varies depending on the state where Jerry resides. Without knowing the state, it is impossible to provide an accurate answer. However, it is generally true that the state list can be more favorable for the debtor, as some states have higher exemption amounts or allow for additional exemptions that are not available under federal law. Jerry should consult with a bankruptcy attorney in his state to determine the specific exemptions available to him.

(3.4a – 1.7b) and (–1.7b 4.9a) and (5.9a – 5.6b) are equivalent expressions.

The question presents a list of six expressions. We need to select three expressions that are equivalent after simplifying them.

One of the expressions is (3.4a - 1.7b), and another is (-1.7b + 4.9a). These two expressions can be simplified to 2.4a - 1.7b.

Another expression is (2.5a - 3.9b), and another is (-3.9b + a). These two expressions can be simplified to 3.5a - 3.9b.

The third expression is 5.9a - 5.6b, which cannot be simplified further.

The three expressions that are equivalent after simplifying are (3.4a - 1.7b) and (-1.7b + 4.9a), (2.5a - 3.9b) and (-3.9b + a), and 5.9a - 5.6b.

We have found the n-vector b for which bc = p/(a), where p is the polynomial with coefficients c0, c1, ..., cn. Let's start by writing out the polynomial:

[tex]c0 + c1x + c2x^2 + ... + cnx^n[/tex]

The derivative of this polynomial with respect to x is:

[tex]c1 + 2c2x + 3c3x^2 + ... + ncnx^(n-1)[/tex]

At the point x=a, the derivative becomes:

[tex]c1 + 2c2a + 3c3a^2 + ... + ncn*a^(n-1)[/tex]

We want this to be a linear function of the coefficients c0, c1, ..., cn. That means we need to find a vector b such that:

[tex]c1 + 2c2a + 3c3a^2 + ... + ncna^(n-1) = b0c0 + b1c1 + ... + bncn[/tex]

Let's compare coefficients of c0, c1, ..., cn on both sides:

c1 = b1c1

2c2a = b2c2

[tex]3c3a^2 = b3c3[/tex]

...

[tex]ncna^(n-1) = bn*cn[/tex]

We can simplify these equations by dividing both sides by ci (assuming ci is not zero):

b1 = 1

b2 = 2a/c2

[tex]b3 = 3a^2/c3[/tex]

...

[tex]bn = n*a^(n-1)/cn[/tex]

So the vector b we're looking for is:

b = [1, 2a/c2, [tex]3a^2[/tex]/c3, ...,[tex]n*a^(n-1)/cn][/tex]

And if we multiply b by the coefficient vector c, we get:

bc = c1 + 2c2a + [tex]3c3a^2[/tex] + ...[tex]+ ncn*a^(n-1)[/tex] = the derivative of the polynomial at x=a

Therefore, we have found the n-vector b for which bc = p/(a), where p is the polynomial with coefficients c0, c1, ..., cn.
