A company makes t-shirts and their research shows that that price and demand are related linearly: p = m x + b . They know that in order to sell 5 shirts they need to set the price at $50, and in order to sell 10 shirts they need to set the price at $40. Find the linear equation relating price to demand.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The linear equation relating price to demand is Q=-0.5*P + 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The demand for a good is the quantity of that good that the demanders are willing to purchase at a given price.

Then, the Demand Curve relates the quantity that a consumer would be willing to buy as a function of price.

You seek to determine the linear equation that relates the price to the demand Q = m * P + b where Q is the quantity demanded at a price P, and compared with the equation of the straight line y = mx + b, m is the slope and b is the ordinate to the origin.

On a line of the form y = m * x + b, the value of m, having two points, is calculated by:

[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

And the ordinate to the origin b is calculated, taking the value of m, replacing any of the two points (replacing any of the two because it must give the same value of b) in the expression y = m * x + b and solving its value.

In the case of Q=m*P+b, the value of m, having two points, is calculated by:

[tex]m=\frac{Q2-Q1}{P2-P1}[/tex]

Being:

Q1= 5P1= $50Q2= 10P2= $40

and replacing:

[tex]m=\frac{10-5}{40-50}[/tex]

you get:

m= -0.5

So, being Q=-0.5*P+b,  b is calculated by:

Replacing the point Q1= 5 and P1= 50

5= -0.5*50 + b → 5= -25 + b → 5+25= b → b= 30

Replacing the point Q1= 10 and P1= 40

10= -0.5*40 + b → 10= -20 + b → 10+20= b → b= 30

Then, the linear equation relating price to demand is Q=-0.5*P + 30

Both the galapagos Islands and the island of naura are on the equator, but the galapagos Islands are at 90.30 degree West whereas the island of naura is at 166.56 degree east. How far is it from galapagos Islands to naura travelling over the pacific ocean along the equator, correct to the nearest km

Answers

Answer:

11481.4875 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the that :

Galapagos island and Island of Naura are on the equator

Galapagos = 90.30°W

Island of Naura = 166.56°E

Ensuring same bearing is used for both :

Island of Naura = 166.56°E = (360° - 166.56°) = 193.44°W

Hence, we can calculate the difference in the bearing of both locations :

(193.44 - 90.30)°W = 103.14°

Hence the distance between Galapagos and Island of Naura along the equator is :

(Difference in bearing / total bearing) * earth's Circumference

Earth's Circumference = 40,075km

(103.14 / 360) × 40,075

0.2865 × 40,075

= 11481.4875 km

Answers

Answer:

99, 664

Step-by-step explanation:

Let company has total x employees.

[tex]29.8 \% \: of \: x = 29700 \\ \\ 0.298x = 29700 \\ \\ x = \frac{29700}{0.298} \\ \\ x = 99,664.4295 \\ \\ x \approx \: 99,664 \: [/tex]

Answer:  99,664 employees in total

Step-by-step explanation:

So if 29.8% of the total people is 29,700  people then we could represent that by the equation.

29.8% * x = 29,700  where x is the total people.

0.298 * x = 29,700

0.298x = 29,700

 x = 99,664.429  

Rounded to the nearest whole number is 99,664

A triangle has a perimeter of 48 inches. Side B is nine inches longer than side A. The base is 7 inches more than twice side A. What are the dimensions of the triangle?

Answers

Answer:

  (A, B, C) = (8, 17, 23) inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can let A, B, and C represent the corresponding side lengths. Then we are given ...

  A + B + C = 48 . . . . . . the perimeter is 48 inches

  B = A + 9 . . . . . . . . . . . B is 9 inches longer than A

  C = 2A +7 . . . . . . . . . . the base (remaining side) is 7 inches more than ...

Substituting for B and C in the first equation, we have ...

  A + (A+9) +(2A+7) = 48

  4A = 32 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 16

  A = 8

  B = A+9 = 17

  C = 2A +7 = 23

Side A is 8 inches, side B is 17 inches, and side C is 23 inches.

Find the measure of each angle: ∠3 and ∠4 are supplementary. m∠3 = 5x + 22 and m∠4 = 7x + 2.

Answers

Answer:

∠3 = 87°∠4 = 93°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ∠3 and ∠4 are supplementary it means the the sum of their angles is equal to 180°

To find the angles add both ∠3 and ∠4 and equate it to 180° solve for x and substitute it into their various expressions

That's

∠3 + ∠4 = 180

5x + 22 + 7x + 2 = 180

12x + 24 = 180°

12x = 180 - 24

12x = 156

Divide both sides by 12

x = 13

So for ∠3

∠3 = 5x + 22

∠3 = 5(13) + 22

= 65 + 22

∠3 = 87°

For ∠4

∠4 = 7x + 2

∠4 = 7(13) + 2

= 91 + 2

∠4 = 93°

We have the answers as

∠3 = 87°∠4 = 93°

Hope this helps you

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \boxed{ \sf{ m \: ∠ \: 3 = 87 °}}}}[/tex]

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{\boxed{ \sf{m \: ∠4 = 93 °}}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the sum of supplementary angle adds up to 180 °

So,

[tex] \sf{5x + 22 + 7x + 2 = 180°}[/tex]

Collect like terms

⇒[tex] \sf{12x + 22 + 2 = 180°}[/tex]

Add the numbers

⇒[tex] \sf{12x + 24 = 180°}[/tex]

Move 24 to right hand side and change it's sign

⇒[tex] \sf{12x = 180 - 24}[/tex]

Subtract 24 from 180

⇒[tex] \sf{12x = 156}[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 12

⇒[tex] \sf{ \frac{12x}{12} = \frac{156}{12} }[/tex]

Calculate

⇒[tex] \sf{x = 13}[/tex]

Value of x = 13

Now, substituting / Replacing the value of x

[tex] \sf{m ∠ 3 = 5x + 22}[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{ m \: ∠ \: 3 = 5 \times 13 + 22}[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{m \: ∠ \: 3 = 65 + 22}[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{ \: m \: ∠ \: 3 = 87}[/tex]

Again,

[tex] \sf{ \: m \: ∠ \: 4 = 7x + 2 }[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{m \: ∠ \: 4 = 7 \times 13 + 2}[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{ \: m \: ∠ \: 4 \: = 91 + 2 }[/tex]

⇒[tex] \sf{m \: ∠ \: 4 = 93 }[/tex]

m 3 = 87

m 4 = 93

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be [tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{8\cdot x}\cdot \ln(2\cdot x) -7[/tex], the first and second derivatives of the function are, respectively:

[tex]f'(x) = \frac{\left(\frac{2}{2\cdot x}\right)\cdot 8\cdot x-8\cdot \ln (2\cdot x) }{64\cdot x^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = \frac{8-8\cdot \ln (2\cdot x)}{64\cdot x^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = \frac{1-\ln(2\cdot x)}{8\cdot x^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]f''(x) = \frac{\left(-\frac{2}{2\cdot x} \right)\cdot (8\cdot x^{2})-[1-\ln(2\cdot x)]\cdot (16\cdot x)}{64\cdot x^{4}}[/tex]

[tex]f''(x) = \frac{-8\cdot x-16\cdot x+16\cdot x\cdot \ln (2\cdot x)}{64\cdot x^{4}}[/tex]

[tex]f''(x) = \frac{-24\cdot x+16\cdot x \cdot \ln (2\cdot x)}{64\cdot x^{4}}[/tex]

[tex]f''(x) = -\frac{3}{8\cdot x^{3}}+\frac{\ln (2\cdot x)}{4\cdot x^{3}}[/tex]

Now, let equalise the first derivative to zero and solve the resulting expression:

[tex]\frac{1-\ln(2\cdot x)}{8\cdot x^{2}} = 0[/tex]

[tex]1-\ln(2\cdot x) = 0[/tex]

[tex]\ln(2\cdot x) = 1[/tex]

[tex]\ln 2 +\ln x = 1[/tex]

[tex]\ln x = 1-\ln 2[/tex]

[tex]x = e^{1-\ln 2}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{e}{e^{\ln 2}}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{e}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x \approx 1.359[/tex]

This result is evaluated at the second derivative expression:

[tex]f''(1.359) =-\frac{3}{8\cdot (1.359)^{3}}+\frac{\ln [2\cdot (1.359)]}{4\cdot (1.359)^{3}}[/tex]

[tex]f''(1.359)\approx -0.050[/tex]

The critical value leads to a critical maximum and there are two intervals:

[tex](0, 1.359)[/tex] - Increasing

[tex](1.359,+\infty )[/tex] - Decreasing

Answers

Answer:

17 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of a square is length x length, or [tex]length^{2}[/tex]

so, since you already have the area, do the opposite of squaring it, which is finding the square root.

[tex]\sqrt{289}[/tex] = 17

The length of each side of a square is   [tex]17 feet[/tex]  whose area is  [tex]289 ft sq[/tex]. (mentioned in the question).

A square is a four-sided figure in which all sides are equal in length and the measure of each angle is [tex]90^0[/tex]. The area is defined as the space that is contained inside the closed boundary or perimeter or circumference.

We know that the

area of the square = [tex]side \times side[/tex]

[tex]289 ft sq[/tex]     [tex]= side \times side[/tex]

[tex]289 = (side) ^2[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{289 } = side[/tex]

[tex]17 = side[/tex]

Thus, the length of each side of a square consisting of an area of[tex]289 ft sq[/tex] is [tex]17 feet[/tex]  .
