Use regression to find a cubic model for the data. Keep two decimal places for the regression parameters written in scientific notation. b. Calculate C(42) and explain what your answer means in practical terms. c. At what speed is the cost of traffic accidents for commercial vehicles driving at night on urban streets at a minimum? Consider speeds between 20 and 50 miles per hour.arrow_forward
- Profit The demand equation for a microwave oven is given by p=1400.0001x, where p is the unit price (in dollars) of the microwave oven and x is the number of units sold. The cost equation for the microwave oven is C=80x+150,000, where C is the total cost (in dollars) and x is the number of units produced. The total profit P obtained by producing and selling x units is modeled by P=xpC. (a) Find the profit function P in terms of x. (b) Find the profit when 250,000 units are sold. (c) Find the unit price when 250,000 units are sold. (d) Find (if possible) the unit price that will yield a profit of 10 million dollars. If not possible, explain why.arrow_forwardManufacturing Cost The manager of a furniture factory finds that it costs 2200 to produce 100 chairs in one day and 4800 to produce 300 chairs in one day. a Assuming that the relationship between cost and the number of chairs produced is linear, find a linear function C that models the cost of producing x chairs in one day. b Draw a graph of C. What is the slope of this line? c At what rate does the factorys cost increase for every additional chair produced?arrow_forward
