A small organization is responsible for distributing two craft products made in a small community, these products are jam and bread. The marginal utility function for the jam is f(x) = 55–4x, and the marginal utility for the package of bread is given by g(x) = 37–x.
Find:
a) The total utility function of the jam.
b) The total utility function of bread.
c) If the consumer wants to buy 2 jars of jam and 3 packages of bread, which of the items will produce more utility.

Answers

Answer 1

3 packages of bread would produce more utility than 2 jars of jam

The total utility function of the jam

The marginal utility function of jam is given as:

f(x) = 55 - 4x

Integrate the above function to determine the total utility function

f'(x) = 55x - 2x^2

Hence, the total utility function of the jam is f'(x) = 55x - 2x^2

The total utility function of bread

The marginal utility function of bread is given as:

g(x) = 37 - x

Integrate the above function to determine the total utility function

g'(x) = 37x - 0.5x^2

Hence, the total utility function of the bread is g'(x) = 37x - 0.5x^2

The items that produce more utility

We have:

Jam = 2 jars

Bread = 3 packages

Substitute 2 for x in f'(x) = 55x - 2x^2

f'(2) = 55 * 2 - 2 * 2^2

f'(2) = 102

Substitute 3 for x in g'(x) = 37x - 0.5x^2

g'(3) = 37 * 3 - 0.5 * 3^2

g'(3) = 106.5

106.2 is greater than 102

Hence, 3 packages of bread would produce more utility

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \frac{2}{33} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 22 cookies in all.

The probability of selecting an oatmeal cookie is 4/22, or 2/11. Since that cookie is eaten, there are 21 cookies left, so the probability of selecting a chocolate chip cookie is 7/21, or 1/3. Multiplying these probabilities, we have 2/33.

Two measures of two supplementary angles are in the ratio of 2.3 find the measurments of the two angles.

Answers

Answer:

The angles are 72° and 108°

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles add up to 180°

Ratio of supplementary angles = 2 : 3

The angles are 2x , 3x

2x + 3x = 180

        5x = 180

f(0) = 8(0²) + 2(0) - 6 = -6

f(2) = 8(2²) + 2(2) - 6 = 32 + 4 - 6 = 30

f(-2) = 8 × (-2)² + 2(-2) - 6 = 32 - 4 - 6 = 22

Answers

The equation equivalent to the simple interest formula A = P(1 + rt), that Celo used is P = A/(1 + rt). Hence, the first option is the right choice.

Equivalent equations are the equations that are transformed from one equation to another equation, but the final values they give are equal. It's just the change of the variable on which the equation is derived.

The simple interest equation that Celo used is A = P(1 + rt).

This is currently used to find the final amount A.

On isolating P to one side of the equation in the following ways:

A = P(1 + rt),

or, A/(1 + rt) = {P(1 + rt)}/(1 + rt) {Dividing both sides by (1 + rt)}.

or, A/(1 + rt) = P {Simplifying}.

or, P = A/(1 + rt) {Changing sides}.

Thus, the equation equivalent to the simple interest formula A = P(1 + rt), that Celo used is P = A/(1 + rt). Hence, the first option is the right choice.
