The Cool Company determines that the supply function for its basic air conditioning unit is S(p) = 40 + 0.008p3 and that its dem

and function is D(p) = 200 - 0.16p2, where p is the price. Determine the price for which the supply equals the demand.

We are given the functions:

<span>S (p) = 40 + 0.008 p^3                                     ---> 1</span>

<span>D (p) = 200 – 0.16 p^2                                     ---> 2</span>

 

T o find for the price in which the price of supply equals demand, all we have to do is to equate the two equations, equation 1 and 2, and calculate for the value of p, therefore:

S (p) = D (p)

40 + 0.008 p^3 = 200 – 0.16 p^2

0.008 p^3 + 0.16 p^2 = 160

p^3 + 20 p^2 = 20,000

p^3 + 20 p^2 – 20,000 = 0

Calculating for the roots using the calculator gives us:

p = 21.86, -20.93±21.84i

 

Since price cannot be imaginary therefore:

p = 21.86

In 2010, the population of a city was 168,000. From 2010 to 2015, the population grew by 7%. From 2015 to 2020, it fell by 6%. H
Alex

Answer:

169,000 people

Step-by-step explanation:

increase from 2010-2015:

168000/100 = 1680 = 1%

1680 x 7 = 11,760 people

population at 2015 = 168000+11760 = 179,760

decrease from 2015-2020:

179760/100 = 1797.6 = 1%

1797.6 x 6 = 10,785.6 people

population at 2020 = 179760-10787.6 = 168,974.4 people

rounded to the nearest 100 = 169,000 people
