Given :

When price is $2 dollars he sells 2400 units .

When price is $8 dollars he sells 600 units .

To Find :

If x represents the price of trucks and y the number of items sold, write an equation for the demand curve.

Solution :

Two points are given :

(x_1,y_1)=(2,2400)

(x_2,y_2)=(8,600)

Now , slope is given by :

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m=\dfrac{2400-600}{2-8}\\\\m=\dfrac{-1800}{6}\\\\m=-300

Now , the equation of line containing these two points and slope -300 is :

(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-600=-300(x-8)\\\\y=-300x+2400+600\\\\y=-300x+3000

Therefore , equation for the demand curve is y = -300x +3000 .

Hence , this is the required solution .

butalik [34]

Answer:

  • (2x + 4a)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Assumed it is asking to factorize

Used formula:

m² +2mn + n² = (m + n)²

  • 16ax + 4x^2 +16a^2 =
  • (2x)² +2*4x*2a + (4a)² =
  • (2x + 4a)²

100 POINTS!!!!

<em>There is no specific requirement in the question, but I'm assuming you need to compute the time needed for Alexis reach 1,000,000 Instagram followers</em>

Answer:

t= 462.82\ days

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Exponential Growth </u>

When the number of observed elements grows as the previous value multiplied by a constant ratio, we have exponential growth. The formula to model such situations is

\displaystyle f(x) = f_o(1 + r)^t

Where f_o is the initial value of f, 1 + r is the constant ratio, and t is the time expressed in half days (12 hours)

The initial value is 100 Instant followers, thus:

\displaystyle f(x) = 100(1.01)^t

We need to know when the number of followers will reach 1,000,000. Setting up the equation

\displaystyle 100(1.01)^t=1,000,000

Simplifying by 100

\displaystyle (1.01)^t=10,000

Taking logarithms

\displaystyle t\ log(1.01)=log\ 10,000

\displaystyle t\ log(1.01)=4

Solving for t

\displaystyle t=\frac{4}{log(1.01)}=925.63 periods of 12 hrs

t= 462.82\ days
