6) A demand curve for a product is the number of items the consumer will buy at different prices. At a price of $2 a store can sell 2400 of a particular type of toy truck. At a price of $8 the store can sell 600 such trucks. If x represents the price of trucks and y the number of items sold, write an equation for the demand curve.

Answers

Answer 1

Given :

When price is $2 dollars he sells 2400 units .

When price is $8 dollars he sells 600 units .

To Find :

If x represents the price of trucks and y the number of items sold, write an equation for the demand curve.

Solution :

Two points are given :

[tex](x_1,y_1)=(2,2400)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2)=(8,600)[/tex]

Now , slope is given by :

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m=\dfrac{2400-600}{2-8}\\\\m=\dfrac{-1800}{6}\\\\m=-300[/tex]

Now , the equation of line containing these two points and slope -300 is :

[tex](y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-600=-300(x-8)\\\\y=-300x+2400+600\\\\y=-300x+3000[/tex]

Therefore , equation for the demand curve is [tex]y = -300x +3000[/tex] .

Hence , this is the required solution .

What is an expression?

The mathematical expression is the combination of numerical variables and operations denoted by addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division signs.

Mathematical symbols can be used to represent numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping. They can also be used to denote the logical syntax's operation order and other properties.

Given that a trail map has a scale of 3 inches to 2 miles. The length of the actual trail will be calculated as:-

3 inches = 2 miles

1 inch = 2 / 3 miles

5¹/₂ inches = 5¹/₂ x  ( 2 / 3 )miles

5¹/₂ inches = 5.2 x ( 2 / 3 )

5¹/₂ inches = 3.5 miles = ( 2¹/₂) miles

Therefore, the length of the actual trail will be 3 and 1/2 miles. The correct option is C.

Samantha has $48 to spend on used video games. Single player games cost $6 each and multi player games cost $12 each. What equation, in standard form, determines the number of single player games (x) and the number of multi player games (y) Samantha can buy?

Answers

Answer:

The equation is

6x + 12y = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form another way of writing a linear equation. It is in the form

Ax + By = C

Total amount with Samantha = $48

Single player games = $6 each

Multi player games = $12 each

Let

Number of Single player games = x

Number of Multi player games = y

The number of single player games (x) and the number of multi player games (y) Samantha can buy is

6x + 12y = 48

That is price × quantity of single player games + price × quantity of multi player games = Total amount with Samantha

Point P is in the interior of ∠OZQ. If m∠OZQ = 125 and m∠OZP = 62, what is m∠PZQ?

Answers

Answer:

63°

Step-by-step explanation:

If point P is in the interior of ∠OZQ, then ∠OZQ = ∠OZP+∠PZQ. Given m∠OZQ = 125 and m∠OZP = 62, to get m∠PZQ, we will substitute the value of the angles given into the expression above as shown;

∠OZQ = ∠OZP+∠PZQ.

125 = 62 + ∠PZQ.

subtract 62 from both sides;

125 - 62 = 62 + ∠PZQ -62

63 = ∠PZQ

Hence the angle  m∠PZQ is 63°

[tex]E.\: 0.2 \cdot 45[/tex]

[tex]D. \: \frac{20}{100}\cdot 45[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

% means /100

[tex]20\% = \frac{20}{100} \\\\20/100 =0.2\\= 0.2\cdot 45\\\\\frac{20}{100}=\frac{1}{5} \\\\= \frac{1}{5} \cdot 45[/tex]

Answer:

B, D, and E.

Step-by-step explanation:

20% is 20/100, or 0.2

so, if we put 20/100 instead of 20%, we get 20/100*45

the same goes for the rest of them. (remember, 1/5 is the same as 0.2)

Find f(−2) given that f(x)=2x2−3x+7.

Answers

Answer:

21.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x^2 - 3x + 7.

When x = -2,

f(-2) = 2(-2)^2 - 3(-2) + 7

= 2(4) - (-6) + 7

= 8 + 6 + 7

= 21.

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the function:

[tex]f(x)=2x^2-3x+7[/tex]

And we want to find f(-2).

To do so, substitute -2 for x. Thus:

[tex]f(-2)=2(-2)^2-3(-2)+7[/tex]

Square:

[tex]f(-2)=2(4)-3(-2)+7[/tex]

Multiply:

[tex]f(-2)=8+6+7[/tex]

Add:

[tex]f(-2)=21[/tex]

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of inequalities?

Answers

Answer: D  (-3,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using both inequalities input the values for x and y to see if it fits the inequality .

y > - 2    

x + y < 4    

The first coordinates are (1,3)  Where 3 is the y value and 1 is the x value.

 

3 > -2      so this works because 3 is greater than -2

4 < 4   This does not work because 4 is not greater than 4 .

So the first point is not a solution to the systems of inequalities.

Now try the second point.

(0,4)    

4 > -2    4 is greater than -2  so it works for the first inequality.

0+ 4 < 4     0 plus 4 is 4  and 4 is not greater than 4 so the second points does not also work for the inequalities so it is not a solution.

Third point

(-2,-3)

-3 > -2    -3 is not greater than -2 so this means the points will not work for the system of inequalities.

Last point

(-3,5)  

5 > -2  5 is indeed greater than -2 so it fits the first inequality now try the second one.

-3 + 5 < 4     -3 +5 is 2   and 2 is less than 4 so it does work for both inequalities so D is the answer.

After taxes, Alexandra's take home pay is 7 10 of her salary before taxes. Enter and solve an equation to find Alexandra's salary before taxes for the pay period that resulted in $378 of take-home pay. Let s represent your variable.

Answers

Answer:

$540

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s be Alexandria's salary before taxes.

Let t be her take-home after taxes = $378

The question says her take-home is 7/10 of her salary before taxes

So to calculate what her salary was before taxes:

s x (7/10) = $378

We divide both sides by 7/10

S = 378 ÷ 7/10

S = 378x10/7

S = 3780/7

S = 540

Therefore from the calculations above, her salary before taxes was $540

Answers

Answer:

10.25 or 10 and 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

10.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that XZ = 5x + 1 (not -5x + 1)

XY = XZ + ZY

20 = 5x + 1 + 3x + 5

20 = 8x + 6

14 = 8x

8x = 14

x = 14/8 = 1.75

ZY = 3x + 5

ZY = 3 * 1.75 + 5

ZY = 5.25 + 5

ZY = 10.25
