- Revenue A manufacturer finds that the revenue generated by selling x units of a certain commodity is given by the function R(x)=80x0.4x2, where the revenue R(x) is measured in dollars. What is the maximum revenue? and how many units should be manufactured to obtain this maximum?arrow_forwardPopulation Growth and Decline The graph shows the population P in a small industrial city from 1950 to 2000. Thevariable x represents the number of year since 1950. (a) Determine the intervals on which the function P isincreasing and on which it is decreasing. (b) What as the maximum population, and in what yearwas it attained? (c) Find the net change in the population P from 1970 to 1990.arrow_forwardMagazine Circulation: The circulation C of a certain magazine as a function of time t is given by the formula C=5.20.1+0.3t Here C is measured in thousands, and t is measured in years since the beginning of 2006, when the magazine was started. a. Make a graph of C versus t covering the first 6 years of the magazines existence. b. Express using functional notation the circulation of the magazine 18 months after it was started, and then find that value. c. Over what time interval is the graph of C concave up? Explain your answer in practical terms. d. At what time was the circulation increasing the fastest?. e. Determine the limiting value for C. Explain your answer in practical terms.arrow_forward
- Formula for Maximum and Minimum Values Find the maximum or minimum value of the function. f(x)=2x2+4x1arrow_forwardRadius of a Shock Wave An explosion produces a spherical shock wave whose radius R expands rapidly. The rate of expansion depends on the energy E of the explosion and the elapsed time t since the explosion. For many explosions, the relation is approximated closely by R=4.16E0.2t0.4. Here R is the radius in centimeters, E is the energy in ergs, and t is the elapsed time in seconds. The relation is valid only for very brief periods of time, perhaps a second or so in duration. a. An explosion of 50 pounds of TNT produces an energy of about 1015 ergs. See Figure 2.71. How long is required for the shock wave to reach a point 40 meters 4000 centimeters away? b. A nuclear explosion releases much more energy than conventional explosions. A small nuclear device of yield 1 kiloton releases approximately 91020 ergs. How long would it take for the shock wave from such an explosion to reach a point 40 meters away? c. The shock wave from a certain explosion reaches a point 50 meters away in 1.2 seconds. How much energy was released by the explosion? The values of E in parts a and b may help you set an appropriate window. Note: In 1947, the government released film of the first nuclear explosion in 1945, but the yield of the explosion remained classified. Sir Geoffrey Taylor used the film to determine the rate of expansion of the shock wave and so was able to publish a scientific paper concluding correctly that the yield was in the 20-kiloton range.arrow_forwardReaction Rates In a chemical reaction, the reaction rate R is a function of the concentraton of the product of the reaction. For a certain second-order reaction between two substances, we have the formula R=0.01x2x+22. Here x is measured in moles per cubic meter and R is measured in moles per cubic meter per second. a. Make a graph of R versus x. Include concentrations up to 100 moles per cubic meter. b. Use functional notation to express the reaction rate when the concentration is 15 moles per cubic meter, and then calculate hat value. c. The reaction is said to be in equilibrium when the reaction rate is 0. At what two concentratoins is the reaction in equilibrium?arrow_forward
- Profit The profit P, in thousands of dollars that a manufacturer makes is a function of the number N of items produced in a year, and the formula is P=0.2N2+3.6N9. a. Express using functional notation the profit at a production level of 5 items per year, and then calculate that value. b. Determine the two break-even points for this manufacturesthat is, the two production levels at which the profit is zero. c. Determine the maximum profit if the manufacturer can produce at most 20 items in a year.arrow_forwardResale Value: The resale value V, in dollars, of a certain car is a function of the number of year t since the year 2012. In the year 2012, the resale ale is 18,000 and each year thereafter the resale value decreases by 1700. a. What is the resale value in the year 2013? b. Find a formula for V as a function of t. c. Make a graph of V versus t covering the first 4 years since the year 2012. d. Use functional notation to express the resale value in the year 2015, and then calculate that value.arrow_forwardVolume of a Box An open box is to constructed from a piece of cardboard 20 cm by 40 cm by cutting squares of side length x from each corner and folding up the sides, as shownin figure. (a) Express the volume V of the box as a function of x. (b) What is the domain of V? (Use the fact that length and volume must be positive.) (c) Draw a graph of the function V, and use it to estimate the maximum volume for such a box.arrow_forward
