() question is worth 30 points: ) the following function represents the production cost f(x) in dollars for x numbers of units produced by company 1: f(x)=0.05x^2-7x+300 the following table represents the production cost g(x) in dollars, for x number of units produced by company 2: x: 0.6,0.8,1, 1.2, 1.4 g(x): 899.58,899.52,899.50,899.52, 899.58 based on the given information, the minimum production cost for company is greater [put 1 or 2 in blank space]

production cost f(x), in dollars, for x number of units produced by company 1:

f(x) = 0.05x^2 − 7x + 300

2) Table that represents the production cost g(x), in dollars, for x number of units produced by company 2:

x        g(x)

0.6    899.58

0.8    899.52

1        899.50

1.2    899.52

1.4    899.58

3) Comparison: do a table for f(x) with the same x-values of the table for g(x).

x            f(x) = 0.05x^2 − 7x + 300    g(x)

0.6         295.818                               899.58

0.8        294.432                               899.52

1            293.05                                 899.50

1.2         291.672                               899.52

1.4          290.298                              899.58

As you can see the values of f(x) are consistently lower than the values of g(x) for the same x-values.

The minimum production cost for company 2 is around 899.50 at x = 1, while the minimum production cost of company 1 is defintely lower (lower than 292.298 for sure, in fact if you find the vertex it is 55).

Based on the given information, the minimum production cost for company 2 is greater.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.3

step-by-step explanation:

3x2=6   9x+6

bring down the 6 on both sides

6+6=12

12= 9x

divide by 9

12/9 =

1.3 =x
