2(x-3)+9=3(x+1)+x
2x-6+9=3x+3+x
2x+3=4x+3
-2x      -2x
3=2x+3
-3       -3
0=2x
x=0

Ramen purchase a box of candy for himself on the way back to the dorm he ate 2/3 of the candy while he was putting away grocerie
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

12 chocolates

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the original number of chocolates by c.  

Then (1/4)(2/3)c = 2

Solving this for c, we multiply both sides by 4:  (2/3)c = 8

and then multiply both sides by (3/2):  c = (3/2)(8) = 12

Originally the box contained 12 chocolates.

Can someone help me with these 4 questions please :) .
butalik [34]

1.

60² + 30² = 4500²

Opposite corner = 67.08 ft.

//

2.

6² + 8² = 100²

The wire must be 10 ft.

//

3.

7² + 14² = 245²

The rope is 15.65 ft.

//

4.

180² + 300² = 122400²

He ran 349.85 ft.

//

I'm not too sure about question 3.

A bakery works out a demand function for its chocolate chip cookies and finds it to be q = D (x) = 943 - 17 x​, where q is the q
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

See expla below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the demand function:

q = D (x) = 943 - 17 x

a) Find the elasticity:

Find the derivative of the demand function.

D'(x)= -17

Thus, elasticity expression is:

\frac{x D'(x)}{D'(x)}

= \frac{x (-17)}{943 - 17x}

= \frac{17x}{943 - 17x}

Elasticity expression = E(x) = \frac{17x}{943 - 17x}

b) At what price is the elasticity of demand equal to 1?

This means E(x) = 1

Substitute 1 for E(x) in the elasticity equation:

E(x) = \frac{17x}{943 - 17x}

1 = \frac{17x}{943 - 17x}

Cross multiply:

943 - 17x = 17x

Collect like terms

17x + 17x = 943

34x = 943

x = \frac{943}{34}

x = 27.74

Elasticity at the price of demand = 1 is 27.74

c) At what prices is the elasticity of demand elastic?

This means E(x) > 1

Therefore,

\frac{17x}{943 - 17x} > 1

\frac{17x}{943 - 17x} > 1

Cross multiply:

17x > 943 - 17x

Collect like terms

17x + 17x > 943

34x > 943

x > \frac{943}{34}

x > 27.74

The elasticity of demand is elastic at x > 27.74

d) At what prices is the elasticity of demand inelastic?

This means E(x) < 1

Therefore,

\frac{17x}{943 - 17x} < 1

\frac{17x}{943 - 17x} < 1

Cross multiply:

17x < 943 - 17x

Collect like terms

17x + 17x < 943

34x < 943

x < \frac{943}{34}

x < 27.74

The elasticity of demand is inelastic at x < 27.74

e) At what price is the revenue a maximum:

Total  revenue will be:

R(x) = x D(x)

= x (943 - 17x)

= 943x - 17x²

R(x) = 934 - 17x(price that maximizes total revenue)

Take R(x) = 0

Thus,

0 = 943 - 17x

17x = 943x

x = \frac{943}{17}

x = 27.74

Total revenue is maximun at x= 27.74 per cookie

f) At x = 21 per cookie, find the price:

Thus,

R (21) = (943 * 21) - (17 * 21²)

= 19803 - 7497

= 12306

At x = 27.74, find the price:

R(27.74) = (943 * 27.74) - (17 - 27.74²)

= 26158.82 - 13081.63

= 13077.19

We can see the new price of cookie causes the total revenue to decrease.

Therefore, with a small increase in price the total revenue will decrease.
