We can subtract the function that represents the cost in 2000 from the function that represents the cost in 1990.

Doing this gives us $(-20t^{2}+1000)-(-10t^{2}+1500)=\boxed{-10t^{2}-500}$

If a monopolist supplies goods at a price; P = 170 - Q, with marginal cost; MC = 52. Find the quantity and price

Arada [10]

Answer:

Quantity = 59 units

Price = $111

Step-by-step explanation:

The Demand function is given by

$P = 170 - Q$

The Marginal cost is given by

$MC = 52$

We are asked to find the quantity and price of goods.

Firstly, obtain the Marginal revenue function from the demand function

The Total revenue is given by

$TR = P \times Q \\\\TR = (170 - Q) \times Q \\\\TR = 170Q - Q^2$

The Marginal revenue is the derivative of the Total revenue,

$MR = \frac{d}{dQ} (TR) = 170Q - Q^2 \\\\MR = \frac{d}{dQ} (TR) = 170 - 2Q \\\\$

Assuming that the monopolist maximizes profits,

$MR = MC \\\\170 - 2Q = 52\\\\2Q = 170 - 52\\\\2Q = 118\\\\Q = 118/2\\\\Q = 59$

Therefore, the quantity is 59 units.

The price of each good is

$P = 170 - Q \\\\P = 170 - 59 \\\\P = 111$

Therefore, the price is $111.

Solve for x. Sqrt8 (Sqrt2 - x) = 11

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer: $\frac{-7\sqrt{2} }{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So first, let's get rid of the parentheses. We can multiply it out to get $\sqrt{16}-x\sqrt{8} =11$ . We know that the square root of 16 is ±4, so now our equation is ±4 - $x\sqrt{8}$ =11. I'm guessing since the problem only has one solution it's most likely only positive 4, so let's revise our equation to 4 - $x\sqrt{8}$ =11. We can use inverse operations to make the a little easier to solve: -7= $x\sqrt{8}$ . We divide both sides by $\sqrt{8}$ to get $\frac{-7}{\sqrt{8} } =x$ , which we can rationalize (remove the square root from the denominator so that it's a proper answer) by multiplying by $\frac{\sqrt{8} }{\sqrt{8} }$ (which is equal to one so we can use it) which is equal to $\frac{-7\sqrt{8} }{8}$ . Let's finish this by simplifying it. $\sqrt{8} =2\sqrt{2}$ (2x $2^{2}$ ). We can simplify it further by simplifying the 2, making it $\frac{-7\sqrt{2} }{4}$ .
