A restaurant operator in Accra has found out that during the lockdown,if she sells a plate of her food for Ghc 20 each,she can s

The demand equation illustrates the price of an item and how it relates to the demand of the item.

  • The slope of the demand function is -1/2
  • The equation of the demand function is: R(x) = (300 - 10x) \times (20 + 5x)
  • The price that maximizes her revenue is: Ghc 85

From the question, we have:

Plates = 300

Price = 20

The number of plates (x) decreases by 10, while the price (y) increases by 5. The table of value is:

\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {300} & {290} & {280} & {270} & {260} \ \\ y & {20} & {25} & {30} & {35} & {40} \ \end{array}

The slope (m) is calculated using:

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

So, we have:

m = \frac{25-20}{290-300}

m = \frac{5}{-10}

m = -\frac{1}{2}

The equation of the demand is as follows:

The initial number of plates (300) decreases by 10 is represented as: (300 - 10x).

Similarly, the initial price (20) increases by 5 is represented as: (20 + 5x).

So, the demand equation is:

R(x) = (300 - 10x) \times (20 + 5x)

Open the brackets to calculate the maximum revenue

R(x) =6000 + 1500x - 200x - 50x^2

R(x) =6000 + 1300x - 50x^2

Equate to 0

6000 + 1300x - 50x^2 =0

Differentiate with respect to x

1300 - 100x =0

Collect like terms

100x =1300

Divide by 100

x =13

So, the price at maximum revenue is:

Price= 20 + 5x

Price= 20 + 5 * 13

Price= 85

In conclusion:

  • The slope of the demand function is -1/2
  • The equation of the demand function is: R(x) = (300 - 10x) \times (20 + 5x)
  • The price that maximizes her revenue is: Ghc 85

ABCD is a trapezoid. = 1 cm and = 5 cm, and the area = 7.5 cm2. What is the altitude of the trapezoid? 1.5 cm 2.5 cm 3 cm 2 cm
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

2.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

area of a trapeziod = 1/2 (a+b)×h

a=1cm

b=5cm

h=?

area= 7.5cm^2

••••• 7.5cm^2=1/2 (6)h

7.5= 3h

then height = 7.5/3= 2.5cm

Rob invests $3,715 in a retirement account
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

$14,048.62

Step-by-step explanation:

The interest is 9% per year and compounded 3 times a year, so each compound will be 9%/3 = 3%

The time elapsed will be 15 years and the interest compounded 3 times a year, so the number of compounds happens will be = 15 years* 3 compounds/year= 45x compound.

So basically the money will get 3% interest 45 times. To put into the compounding interest formula, the final account balance will be:

A = P (1 + [ r / n ]) ^ nt

A= amount of the balance after a period of t

P= principal, the initial money deposit( $3,715)

r= rate(9%)

n= number of compound per unit of time(3 times per year)

t= time(15 years)

The calculation will be:

A = P (1 + [ r / n ]) ^ nt

A = $3,715(\frac{1+0.09}{3} )^{3*15}

A = $14,048.62

When s is the open hemisphere x 2 + y 2 + z 2 = 1, z ≤ 0 , oriented by the inward normal pointing to the origin, then the bounda
Anit [1.1K]
The figure below shows a diagram of this problem. First of all we graph the hemisphere. This one has a radius equal to 1. Given that z ≤ 0 a sphere will be valid only in the negative z-axis, that is, we will get a half of a sphere that is the hemisphere shown in the figure. We know that this hemisphere is oriented by the inward normal pointing to the origin, then we have a Differential Surface Vector called N, using the Right-hand rule <span>the boundary orientation is </span>counterclockwise.

Therefore, the answer above False
