What is the domain and range of the function f(x) = x^2 -4x-5?

1 answer:

5 0

F(x) = x²-4x-5, quadratic function,
Domain (the values if x) is all real numbers.

To find range we should draw a graph or to write an equation in vertex form.
f(x) = x²-4x+4-4-5
f(x) = (x-2)²-9
Point (-2,-9) is the vertex of the parabola, and it is a minimum because a parabola has positive sign in front of x², so it is looking up. Minimum value of y =-9
Range(the values of y) is [-9, ∞)

Radda [10]

Answer: At $21.85, the supply will equal to demand.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Demand function is given by

$D(p) = 50 - 0.04p^2, \text{where p is the price.}$

Supply function is given by

$S(p) = 10 + 0.002p^3$

According to question, we need to find the price for which the supply equals the demand, i.e. Equilibrium price and quantity.

$D(p)=S(p)\\\\50-0.04p^2=10+0.002p^3\\\\50-10=0.002p^3+0.04p^2\\\\40=\frac{2}{1000}p^3+\frac{4}{100}p^2\\\\40=\frac{2}{100}p^2(\frac{1}{10}p+2)\\\\\frac{40\times 100}{2}=p^2(\frac{1p+20}{2})\\\\\mathrm{The\:Newton-Raphson\:method\:uses\:an\:iterative\:process\:to\:approach\:one\:root\:of\:a\:function}\\\\p\approx \:21.85861\dots$
