By using the midpoint approach, the price elasticity of demand between each of the given prices are:

5.502.251.170.63

What is the price elasticity of demand?

The price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of the quantity demanded by a consumer with respect to a specific change in price of the product, all things being equal (ceteris paribus).

By using the midpoint approach, the price elasticity of demand between each of the given prices is given by:

Price elasticity of demand = (Q₂ - Q₁)/[(Q₂ + Q₁)/2]/(P₂ - P₁)/[(P₂ + P₁)/2]

Price elasticity of demand = (15 - 5)/[(15 + 5)/2]/(25 - 30)/[(25 + 30)/2]

Price elasticity of demand = 1/-0.1818

Price elasticity of demand = 5.50.

Part B.

Price elasticity of demand = (Q₂ - Q₁)/[(Q₂ + Q₁)/2]/(P₂ - P₁)/[(P₂ + P₁)/2]

Price elasticity of demand = (25 - 15)/[(25 + 15)/2]/(20 - 25)/[(20 + 25)/2]

Price elasticity of demand = 0.5/-0.2222

Price elasticity of demand = 2.25.

Part C.

Price elasticity of demand = (Q₂ - Q₁)/[(Q₂ + Q₁)/2]/(P₂ - P₁)/[(P₂ + P₁)/2]

Price elasticity of demand = (35 - 25)/[(35 + 25)/2]/(15 - 20)/[(15 + 20)/2]

Price elasticity of demand = 0.33/-0.2857

Price elasticity of demand = 1.17.

Part D.

Price elasticity of demand = (Q₂ - Q₁)/[(Q₂ + Q₁)/2]/(P₂ - P₁)/[(P₂ + P₁)/2]

Price elasticity of demand = (45 - 35)/[(45 + 35)/2]/(10 - 15)/[(10 + 15)/2]

Price elasticity of demand = 0.25/-0.4

Price elasticity of demand = 0.63.

The functions f(x) and g(x) are shown on the graph.



Using f(x), what is the equation that represents g(x)?

g(x) = log3(x) – 4
g(x) = log3(x) + 4
g(x) = log3(x – 4)
g(x) = log3(x + 4)

Answers

We can see that g(x) is a translation of 4 units to the left of f(x), then:

g(x) = log₃(x + 4).

How to get the equation that represents g(x)?

Here we can see that g(x) is a shift of f(x). Is clear that the asymptote of g(x) is 4 units to the left of the asymptote of f(x), so we can say that g(x) is a shift of 4 units to the left of f(x).

Remember that for a given function f(x), an horizontal shift of N units is given by:

g(x) = f(x + N).

If N is positive, the shift is to the left.If N is positive, the shift is to the right.

Then a shift of 4 units to the left is written as:

g(x) = log₃(x + 4).

Then the correct option is the last one.

A quality of at least two forms in relation to each other is similarity. When two forms are similar, their qualities in relation to one another remain the same.

Determine whether 5, 238 is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, or 10.

Answers

Answer:

2, 3, 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply try each value using long division.

2:

Since 5,238 ends in an even number, that automatically means it is divisible by 2.

5238/2=2619

Now for 3:

5238/3=1746 no remainder or decimal, so 3 also works

4:

You can either do long division again with 4, or you can see if 5238 divided by 2 (5238/2) is also divisible by 2. Since 2619 doesn't end in an even number, 4 is a no go.

Long division 5238/4=1309.5 decimal here, so 4 isn't an answer

5:

This is also very easy, simply check if the number ends in 0 or 5. Since 5,238 does not, 5 doesn't work either.

6:

You can do the same thing as with 4, except this time trying to find if 5238 divided by 3 (5238/3) is divisible by 2. Since 1746 ends in an even number, 6 also works.

Long division: 5238/6=873

9:

You can do the same thing as with 6, except this time trying to find if 5238 divided by 3 (5238/3) is divisible by 3.

1746/3=548 with a remainder of 2, which means 9 doesn't work

Long division: 5238/9=548.66 repeating

10:

Finally, 10 is another easy one. Simply check if the number ends in 0. 5,238 does not, so 10 doesn't work.

The volume of the solid objects are 612π in³ and 1566πcm³

Volume of solid object

The given objects are composite figures consisting of two shapes.

The volume of the blue figure is expressed as;

Volume = Volume of cylinder + volume of hemisphere

Volume = πr²h + 2/3πr³

Volume =  πr²(h + 2/3r)

Volume =  π(6)²(13+2/3(6))

Volume = 36π(13 + 4)

Volume = 612π in³

For the other object

Volume = Volume of cylinder + volume of cone

Volume = πr²h + 1/3πr²h

Volume =  π(9)²(15) + 1/3π(9)²(13)

Volume=  81π (15+13/3)

In total they served 400 customers over these three months

Answers

The algebraic expression of the situation above is 4x - 100 = 400

How to form an algebraic expression?

Let

the amount of ice cream they serve in July = x + 100

the amount of ice cream they serve in June = x

They served twice as many customers in august as they did in June.

Therefore,

the amount of ice cream they serve in August = 2(x)

the amount of ice cream they serve in August = 2x

Therefore,

2x + x  + x + 100 = 400

4x - 100 = 400

What is trigonometry?

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the relationship between sides and angles of a right-angle triangle.

Here the diagram and some data are missing.

But using Pythagoras or trigonometric ratio we can find the length.

We have:

17sinA-15-0

sinA = 15/17

Using Pythagoras theorem:

Base length = √(17² - 15²) = 8 units

= tanA = 15/8

= 1 - cosA = 1 - 8/17 = 9/17

We can find the rest of the trigonometric ratio.

Thus, the value of the tanA is 15/8, and the value of the 1 - cosA is 9/17 after calculating the base length, which is 8 units.

first look at the slope: slop = rise over run. for every 2 units right, the point goes 1 unit down. so the slope if -1/2 or -0.5

next look at the y-intercept. the y-intercept of this graph is 1

plug these into the equation y= mx + b to get y = -0.5x + 1

Answer:

A. y = -0.5x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

An equation of a line is written in slope-intercept form: [tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

y = output, y-value, ordinatem = slope, rise over run, rate of changex = input, x-value, abscissab = y-intercept, starting value

Y-intercept

The y-intercept is found when x=0, or then the line crosses the y-axis.

Over here, we can see that the line crosses the y-axis at point (0,1), so the y-intercept is positive 1.

Slope

Slope is calculated by rise over run, or the ratio of how much the graph rises over how much the graph runs. Use points to determine how the graph changes. (For simple calculations, use integer points, such as (0,1) and (0,2)

[tex]\frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}}[/tex][tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex][tex]-0.5[/tex]

Now that we have the slope and the y-intercept, we can plug those values to make our equation.

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex][tex]y = -0.5x + 1[/tex]

The correct answer is Option A. y = -0.5x + 1
