Protein Content of Wheat GrainProtein content of wheat grain is affected by soil moisture and the amount of available nitrogen among other things. Figure 1.45 shows" the percent of protein content of wheat grain versus pounds of nitrogen per acre applied in three separate situations. In each case, soil moisture refers to moisture at the soil depth of 2 inches to 12 inches. Situation 1: Irrigation was used when soil moisture dropped to 49. Situation 2: Irrigation was used when soil moisture dropped to 34. Situation 3: Irrigation was used when soil moisture dropped to 1. a. If irrigation begins when soil moisture reaches 49, what application of nitrogen will result in the lowest percentage of protein in wheat grain? b. If irrigation begins when soil moisture reaches 34, what application of nitrogen will result in the same protein content of wheat grain as beginning irrigation when soil moisture reaches 1? c. If you irrigate when soil moisture reaches 34, how much nitrogen should you apply to achieve a 13 protein content in wheat grain? d. Does Figure 1.45 indicate that, for nitrogen levels at 45 pounds per acre or higher, increased protein content in wheat grain is associated with higher or lower soil moisture?

- Reminder: Round all answer to two decimal places unless otherwise indicated. 15.Total Cost The total cost C for a manufacturer during a given time period is a function of the number N of items produced during that period. To deter mine a formula for the total cost, we need to know the manufacturers fixed costs covering things such as plant maintenance and insurance, as well as the cost for each unit produced, which is called the variable cost. To find the total cost, we multiply the variable cost by the number of items produced during that period and then add the fixed costs. Suppose that a manufacturer of widgets has fixed costs of 9000 per month and that the variable cost is 15 per widget so it costs 15 to produce 1 widget. a. Use a formula to express the total cost C of this manufacturer in a month as a function of the number of widgets produced in a month. Be sure to state the units you use. b. Express using functional notation the total cost if there are 250 widgets produced in a month, and then calculate that value.arrow_forwardReminder Round all answers to two decimal places unless otherwise indicated. Market Supply and demand The quality of wheat, in billions of bushels, that wheat suppliers are willing to produce in a year and offer for sale is called the quantity supplied and is denoted by S. The quantity supplied and is determined by the price P of wheat, in dollars per bushel, and the relation is P=2.13S0.75. The quantity of wheat, in billions of bushels, that wheat consumers are willing to purchase in a year is called the quantity demanded and is denoted by D. The quantity demanded is also determined by the price P of wheat, and the relation is P=2.650.55D. At the equilibrium price, the quality supplied and the quality demanded are the same.

Equilibrium PriceThis is a continuation of Exorcise 5. The equilibrium price is the price where the supply and demand are the same.

Supply and Demand CurvesA supply curve is a graph that shows the quantity of a product that is made available by suppliers as a function of the price. Similarly, a demand curve is a graph that shows the quantity of a product that consumers are willing to purchase as a function of the price. Examples of supply and demand curves are shown in Figures 1.29 and 1.30. a.Explain in practical terms what the supply curve in Figure 1.29 tells us. b.Explain in practical terms what the demand curve in Figure 1.30 tells us.

- Reminder Round all answers to two decimal places unless otherwise indicated. Profit The total cost C for a manufacturer during a given time period is a function of the number N of items produced during that period. In this exercise, we measure all monetary values in dollars. To determine a formula for the total cost, we need to know the manufacturers fixed costs covering such things as plant maintenance and insurance as well as the cost for each unit produced, which is called the variable cost. To find the total cost, we multiply the variable cost by the number of items produced during that period and then add the fixed costs. The total revenue R for a manufacturer during a given time period is also a function of the number N of items produced during that period. To determine a formula for the total monthly revenue, we need to know the selling price p per unit of the item, which in general is also a function of N. To find the total revenue, we multiply this selling price by the number of items produced. The profit P for a manufacturer is the total revenue minus the total cost. Suppose that a manufacturer of widgets has a fixed costs of 2000 per month and that the variable cost is 30 per widget. Further, the manufacturer has developed the following table showing the highest price p, in dollars, of a widget at which N widgets can be sold. Number N Price p 200 41.00 250 40.50 300 40.00 350 39.50 a.Use a formula to express the total monthly cost C of this manufacturer as a function of N. b.Use the table to find a linear model of p as a function of N. c.Use your answer to part b to find a formula expressing the total monthly revenue R as function of N. d.Use your answers to part a and part c to find a formula expressing the monthly profit P as a function of N. What type of function is the profit: linear or quadratic? e.Find the two monthly production levels at which the manufacturer just breaks even that is, where the profit is zero.arrow_forwardReminder Round all answer to two decimal places unless otherwise indicated. Currency Conversion The number P of British pounds that you can get from a bank is a linear function of the number D of American dollars you pay. An American tourist arriving at Heathrow airport in England went to a banking window at the airport and gave the teller 70 American dollars. She received 46 British pounds in exchange. In this exercise, assume that there is no service charge for exchanging currency. a. What is the rate of change, or slope, of P with respect to D? Explain in practical terms what this number means. Note: You need two values to calculate a slope, but you were given only one. If you think about it, you know one other value. How many British pounds can you get for zero American dollars? b. A few days later, the American tourist went to a bank in Plymouth and exchange 130 American dollars for British pounds. How many pounds did she receive? c. Upon returning to the airport, she found that she found that she still had 12.32 in British currency in her purse. In preparation for the trip home, she exchanged that for American dollars. How much money, in American dollars, did she get?arrow_forwardReminderRound all answers to two decimal places unless otherwise indicated. TargetData from Targets 2014 annual report indicate that the equation of change for the revenue R, in millions of dollars, from 2010 through 2014 is dRdt=1647.7 where t is the time, in years, since 2010. If the initial revenue is 66,726.4 million dollars, find an equation that gives R as a linear function of t.arrow_forward
