During the first \(\frac{1}{2}\) hour, the employees of a machine shop prepare the work area for the day's work. After that, they turn out 10 precision machine parts per hour, so the output after \(t\) hours is \(f(t)\) machine parts, where \(f(t)=10\left(t-\frac{1}{2}\right)=10 t-5, \frac{1}{2} \leq t \leq 8\). The total cost of producing \(x\) machine parts is \(C(x)\) dollars, where \(C(x)=.1 x^{2}+25 x+200\). (a) Express the total cost as a (composite) function of \(t\). (b) What is the cost of the first 4 hours of operation?
Let \(f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x}\) and \(g(x)=\frac{1}{x^{2}}\). Calculate the following functions. Take \(x>0\). \(g(f(x))\)
A cellular telephone company estimates that, if it has \(x\) thousand subscribers, its monthly profit is \(P(x)\) thousand dollars, where \(P(x)=12 x-200\). (a) How many subscribers are needed for a monthly profit of 160 thousand dollars? (b) How many new subscribers would be needed to raise the monthly profit from 160 to 166 thousand dollars?
Annual Compound with Deposits Assume that a couple invests \(\$ 4000\) each year for 4 years in an investment that earns \(8 \%\) compounded annually. What will the value of the investment be 8 years after the first amount is invested?
Annual Compound Assume that a couple invests \(\$ 1000\) upon the birth of their daughter. Assume that the investment earns \(6.8 \%\) compounded annually. What will the investment be worth on the daughter's 18 th birthday?
