A contractor is considering hiring ONE new employee, either a painter or a carpenter, to help complete a large scale project. The cost (in dollars) of the project is given by C(x, y)=1143ln(x^2y)−14yx−271x+12y^2+300 0

where x represents the number of painters and y represents the number of carpenters working on the project. Use marginal cost to determine which of the following options is the MOST cost effective if 6 painters and 10 carpenters are currently employed.

$450.00 for 6 weeks

or

$300

step-by-step explanation:

$200.00 for first week $50.00 x5 equals $250 plus $200 equals $450.00 for six weeks.

$200 for first week

$200 x 0.10 = $20

$20 x 5 = $100

$200 + $100 = $300

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
