Real World Quadratic Functions Maximum profit. A chain store manager has been told by the main office that daily profit‚ P‚ is related to the number of clerks working that day‚ x‚ according to the function P = −25x2 + 300x. What number of clerks will maximize the profit‚ and what is the maximum possible profit? In order to find the point at which profit is maximized‚ I must find the critical points of the first derivative of the equation. Coefficient of x^2 is negative‚ so

Much of the leading research into the long-term effects of marijuana‚ suggests that regular‚ long-term use of marijuana leads to deficits in IQ‚ executive functioning‚ motor and learning skills and short-term memory loss(Grant‚ Gonzalez‚ Carey‚ Natarajan‚ & Wolfson‚ 2003; Pope‚ Gruber‚& Yurgelun-Todd‚ 1995; Pope‚ Gruber‚ Hudson‚ Huestis‚ & Yurgelun-Todd‚ 2001; Solowij & Battisti‚ 2008;

Using Polynomials in the “Real World” Polynomial functions are used in our everyday lives in a few different ways‚ this includes art‚ architecture‚ construction‚ financial planning‚ and manufacturing. We can also calculate how long it will take one person to do a job alone when we know how long it takes a group to get it done as well. Farmers on crop farms work dawn to dusk through the growing season to produce the grains‚ fruits‚ and vegetables that feed the country. These equations help them

The keywords in this article are Objective Function and Constraints‚ according to Heizer & Render (2008) Objective Function are mathematical expression expressed in linear programming designed to maximizes or minimizes some quantity‚ for example profit can maximized while the cost might be reduced.

Invariably‚ the colours are hard to name than when they are shown in simple strips uncomplicated by the words. Typically volume of voice goes up; reading falters;

determining to what end can contrasting stimuli‚ in this case the name of a color and the color of ink used for that word‚ interfere with one another (Stroop‚ 1935). This interference was due to automaticity (Stroop‚ 1935). Automaticity is the cognitive function of reacting to a stimulus so quickly due to the small amount of effort required. In this case‚ automaticity makes an individual read a word prior to recognizing the color of the word’s ink (Stroop‚ 1935). Reaction times are
