Errol's bike ride from home to school can be modeled by the equation d(t) = - 1/4 * t + 2 where d(t) is his distance from school

in miles, at t minutes. Errol's friend Daniel lives 4 miles away from school. It takes Daniel twice as long to get to school if he bike rides at the same pace as Errol. What can be said about the graph of the equation that models Daniel's bike rides?

Answer:

Daniel's equation will have a vertical translation by 2 units in the positive direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Errol's bike ride can be modeled by the equation,

d(t)=-\frac{1}{4}t+2

Slope of the equation = -\frac{1}{4}

Here slope defines the rate of change of distance from Errol's house.

Y-intercept = 2, which represents the distance of the school from his home.

Let the equation that represents the equation is,

d(t) = mt + b

Errol's friend Daniel lives 4 miles away from school that means y intercept of the equation (b) = 4

Since Daniel drives his bike at the same pace as Errol, slope will be same.

Equation that models the distance will be

d(t)=-\frac{1}{4}t+4

If we compare both the equations, slopes are same but y-intercepts have a difference of 2 units

Therefore, the graph from the Daniel's equation will have a vertical translation by 2 units in the positive direction.

C+ax=dx<br><br><br>this one has all variables and no numbers

That's OK, but you have not said which variable you want to solve it for.

<u>To solve for 'x':</u>
                                           <span>c + ax = dx

Subtract c from each side:    ax = dx - c

Subtract  dx  from each side:   ax - dx = -c

Factor the left side:                 x (a - d) = -c

Divide each side by (a - d) :      x = -c / (a - d)  or  <u>x = c / (d - a)</u> .

Currently, the demand equation for necklaces is Q = 30 – 4P. The current price is $10 per necklace. Is this the best price to ch
barxatty [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is NO. The best price to be charged is $3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Demand equation is given by Q = 30 - 4P, where Q is the quantity of necklaces demanded and P is the price of the necklace.

⇒ 4P = 30 - Q

⇒ P = \frac{30-Q}{4}

The current price of the necklace $10.

Revenue function is given by R = P × Q = \frac{1}{4} × ( 30Q - Q^{2})

To maximize the revenue function we differentiate the function with respect to Q and equate it to zero.

\frac{dR}{dQ} =  \frac{1}{4} × ( 30 - 2Q) = 0

⇒ Q = 15.

The second order derivative is negative showing that the value of Q is maximum.

Therefore P at Q = 15 is $3.75.

Thus to maximize revenue the price should be $3.75.
