You have been hired as a marketing consultant to Johannesburg Burger Supply, Inc., and you wish to come up with a unit price for

its hamburgers in order to maximize its weekly revenue. To make life as simple as possible, you assume that the demand equation for Johannesburg hamburgers is linear. (a) Your market studies reveal the following sales figures: When the price is set at $2.00 per hamburger, the sales amount to 6000 per week, but when the price is set at $4.00 per hamburger, the sales drop to zero. Use these data to find the linear demand function q(p), where p is the price per hamburger and q is the number of hamburgers they sell at that price per week.

Answer:

q(p)= -3000p+12000

Step-by-step explanation:

For the function to be linear,

q(p)= mp + c

where

q(p): number of hamburgers sold

p: price per hamburger

m: gradient of the function

c: constant of the function

q(p)=6000 when p=2

6000=2m+c .................... equation I

0=4m+c

c=-4m........................ equation II

Substitute value of c in equation I

6000=2m-4m

m= -3000

c=12000

q(p)= -3000p+12000

Using the Pythagorean theorm, 
a^2 + b^2 = C^2, where a nd b are the side lengths and c is the hypotenuse ( diagonal line)

If it was a square both sides would be the same length so we would have:
13^2 +13^2 = c^2
169 + 169 = c^2
338 = c^2

c = SQRT(338) = 18.38

18.38 is larger than the 15.26 given in the problem , so the room is not a square.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

13 years

Step-by-step explanation:

17 + 15 + 23 + 23 + 23 =101 / 5 = 20.2

Mean before was 20.2

In order for the mean to be 19, all those numbers would have to add up 114 to be divided by 6 and have a mean of 19

114 / 6 = 19

114-101 = 13 is that number

17 + 15 + 23 + 23 + 23 + 13 = 114 / 6 = 19

Examine the system of equations. Do you think the lines will intersect? Explain.
Alchen [17]
Yep they do, because if you plug in y for both equations, you get x=0. To find y, plug in 0 for either equation to get -7.  (0,-7) should work for both equations since the intersection point is the point where both equations meet.
