A common equation used in business is a demand equation. It expresses the relationship between the unit price of some commodity

and the quantity demanded. In the​ equation, p represents the unit price and x represents the quantity demanded in thousands. A company sells desk lamps and has found that the demand equation for a certain style of desk lamp is given by the equation p equals negative x squared plus 23. Find the demand for the desk lamp if the price is ​$7 per lamp.

Answer:

The demand of the desk is 4000 units

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we know that p is equals negative x squared plus 23, that can be written as:

p=-x^{2} +23

Where p is the unit price and x represent the quantity demanded in thousands. Replacing p by 7 and solving for x, we get:

7=-x^{2} +23\\x^{2} =23-7\\x^{2} =16\\x=\sqrt{16\\} \\x=4

Since x is given in thousands of units, if the price is $7, the demand of the desk is 4000 units.

How do you Factor this equation
algol [13]

Answer:

(x+4)(x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The middle number is 8 and the last number is 16. Factoring means we want something like (x+_)(x+_). We need two numbers that add together to get 8 and multiply together to get 16. The number 4 works perfectly in this equation. That's why (x+4)(x+4) is the factor of the equation x^2 + 8x + 16.

Which equation can pair with 3x + 4y = 8 to create a consistent and independent system?
Hunter-Best [27]
There isn't any choices given in this problem but I can give you a tip to answer these kinds of problem. When you say independent, it means that the equation cannot be algebraically altered to result to 3x + 4y = 8. So the equation 6x + 8y = 16 is not an independent equation since when you divide each side by 2 it will result to 3x + 4y =8. You get the idea. <span />
