- Finding hotel rates A 300-room hotel is two-thirds filled when the nightly room rate is 90. Experience has shown that each 5 increase in cost results in 10 fewer occupied rooms. Find the nightly rate that will maximize income.arrow_forwardSize of High Schools The farm population has declined dramatically in the years since World War II, and with that decline, rural school districts have been faced with consolidating in order to be economically efficient. One researcher studied data from the early 1960s on expenditures for high schools ranging from 150 to 2400 in enrollment. He considered the cost per pupil as a function of the number of pupils enrolled in the high school, and he found the approximate formula C=7430.402n+0.00012n2 where n is the number of pupils enrolled and C is the cost, in dollars, per pupil. a. Make a graph of C versus n. b. What enrollment size gives a minimum per-pupil cost? c. If a high school had an enrollment of 1200, how much in per-pupil cost would be saved by increasing enrollment to the optimal size found in part b?arrow_forwardDrug Concentration When a drug is administered orally, it takes some time before the blood concentration reaches its maximum level. After that time, concentration levels decrease. When 500 milligrams of procainamide is administered orally, one model for a particular patient gives blood concentration C, in milligrams per liter, after t hours as C=2.65(e0.2te2t) What is the maximum blood-level concentration, and when does that level occur?arrow_forward
- Travel Time You are driving on a Canadian freeway to a town that is 500 kilometers from your home. After 30 minutes, you pass a freeway exit that you know is 50 kilometers from your home. Assuming that you continue at the same constant speed, how long does the entire trip take?arrow_forwardCompetition Two friends enjoy competing with each other to see who has the best time in running a mile. Initially before they ever raced each other, the first friend runs a mile in 7 minutes, and for each race that they run, his time decreases by 13 seconds. Initially, the second friend runs a mile in 7 minutes and 20 seconds, and for each race that they run, his time decreases by 16 seconds. Which will be the first race in which the second friend beats the first?arrow_forwardAgriculture At a certain vineyard it is found that each grape vine produces about 10 lb of grapes in a season when about 700 vines are planted per acre. For each additional vine that is planted, the production of each vine decreases by about 1 percent. So, the number of pounds of grapes produced per acre is modeled by An=700+n10-0.01n where n is the number of additional vines planted. Find the number of vines that should be planted to maximize grape production.arrow_forward
- Paying Off a Credit Card Suppose you owe 15, 000 on a credit card that carries an APR of 24. Because the balance is so high, you choose to stop charging and pay off the card. You can afford to make only the minimum monthly payment, which is 5 of the balance. Then your balance after t months is given by B=15,000(1.020.95)tdollars. How many payments will you have to make to get the balance below 100?arrow_forwardInvestments Jack invest $1000 at a certain annual interest rate, and he invests another $2000 at an annual rate that is one half percent higher.
