With the information given, we deduce that the parabola is
Reflecting a function over the x axis means to change its sign. After the reflection, the parabola becomes
And to shift down a function, you subtract the shift from the equation: the equation becomes
Similarly, the other function is reflected over the x axis (sign change) and shifted up 3 (add 3 to the equation):
In order to compute the y intercept, we simply have to evaluate the functions at x=0: for the parabola we have
For the other function, we have
-18a+17b is the answer because you multiply by -1 to each
Answer:
Quantity = 59 units
Price = $111
Step-by-step explanation:
The Demand function is given by
The Marginal cost is given by
We are asked to find the quantity and price of goods.
Firstly, obtain the Marginal revenue function from the demand function
The Total revenue is given by
The Marginal revenue is the derivative of the Total revenue,
Assuming that the monopolist maximizes profits,
Therefore, the quantity is 59 units.
The price of each good is
Therefore, the price is $111.
C
substitute a = - 1 into the expression
- (- 1) - 12(- 1)² = 1 - (12 × 1 ) = 1 - 12 = - 11 → C
Answer:
The equation of the function: y = mx + b
- m = slope = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = [5 - (-3)]/(4 - 0) = (5 + 3)/4 = 8/4 = 2
- b = y-intercept = -3
Therefore, the equation is <u>f(x) = 2x - 3</u>
When x = 0, f(x) = 2(0) - 3 = <u>-3</u>
When x increases by 1, f(x) increases by <u>2</u> (slope = the rate of change)
