Maximum Sales Growth This is a continuation of Exercise 10. In this exercise, we determine how the sales level that gives the maximum growth rate is related to the limit on sales. Assume, as above, that the constant of proportionality is 0.3, but now suppose that sales grow to a level of 4 thousand dollars in the limit.
a. Write an equation that shows the proportionality relation for G.
b. On the basis of the equation from part a, make a graph of G as a function of s.
c. At what sales level is the growth rate as large as possible?
d. Replace the limit of 4 thousand dollars with another number, and find at what sales level the growth rate is as large as possible. What is the relationship between the limit and the sales level that gives the largest growth rate? Does this relationship change if the proportionality constant is changed?
e. Use your answers in part d to explain how to determine the limit if we are given sales data showing the sales up to a point where the growth rate begins to decrease.

- Q1: A: Let M and N be two subspace of finite dimension linear space X, show that if M = N then dim M = dim N but the converse need not to be true. B: Let A and B two balanced subsets of a linear space X, show that whether An B and AUB are balanced sets or nor. Q2: Answer only two A:Let M be a subset of a linear space X, show that M is a hyperplane of X iff there exists ƒ€ X'/{0} and a € F such that M = (x = x/f&x) = x}. fe B:Show that every two norms on finite dimension linear space are equivalent C: Let f be a linear function from a normed space X in to a normed space Y, show that continuous at x, E X iff for any sequence (x) in X converge to Xo then the sequence (f(x)) converge to (f(x)) in Y. Q3: A:Let M be a closed subspace of a normed space X, constract a linear space X/M as normed space B: Let A be a finite dimension subspace of a Banach space X, show that A is closed.

The flow rates of these streams are not yet known and thus to be found. The combined water inflow from the streams is 300 m³/h. The rate of Stream A is three times the combined rates of Stream B and Stream C. The rate of Stream B is 50 m³/h less than half of the difference between the rates of Stream A and Stream C. Find the flow rates of the three streams by setting up an equation system Ax = b and solving it for x. Provide the values of A and b. Assuming that you get to an upper-triangular matrix U using an elimination matrix E such that U = E A, provide also the components of E.arrow_forward
