You can set it up like this:

x + (3x - 5) = 119

Add 5 to both sides:

x + 3x = 124

Combine like terms:

4x = 124

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 31

So, one number is 31, and since the other is 5 less than three times that number, it's 31(3) - 5 = 88. To check, add the two (31 and 88) together, and sure enough, the answer is 119!

Hope this helped!! xx

The Decay rate for any  function can be calculated by the formula Decay rate = [ difference in y values ÷difference in x values in given interval.].

Decay Rate for the exponential function in the interval -2≤x≤0. is (4-1)÷(-2-0)

= 3÷2.

Decay rate for quadratic function in same interval =[ (4-0)÷-(-2-0)] = 2÷1.

Ratio of decay rates=\frac{3}{2} :\frac{2}{1}=3:4.

Option D The exponential function decays at three-fourths the rate of the quadratic function. is the right answer.

If the price of a product is p (dollars), the number of units demanded is given by the equation q-pe-3p
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

\mathbf{E(p) = 1 - 3p}

the estimate the percent change in q when the price is raised from $2.00 to $2.10 decreases by 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

the number of units demanded q = pe^{-3p}

Taking differentiations ; we have,

\dfrac{dq}{dp}=e^{-3p}+p(-3e^{-3p})

\dfrac{dq}{dp}=(1-3)e^{-3p}

Now; the price elasticity of demand using the differentials definition of elasticity  is:

E(p) = \dfrac{dq}{dp}*\dfrac{p}{q}

E(p) =[(1-3)e^{-3p}]*[\dfrac{p}{pe^{-3p}}]

\mathbf{E(p) = 1 - 3p}

(b)   Use your answer from part (a) to estimate the percent change in q when the price is raised from $2.00 to $2.10.

The estimate of the percentage change in price is :

=\dfrac{2.10-2.00}{2.00}*100 \%

= 5%

From (a)

\mathbf{E(p) = 1 - 3p}

Now at p = $2.00

E(2) = 1 - 3 (2.00)

E(2) = 1 - 6

E(2) = -5

The percentage change in q = -5 × 5%

The percentage change in q = -25%

Thus; we can conclude that the estimate the percent change in q when the price is raised from $2.00 to $2.10 decreases by 25%
