Answer: x=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x-2)=5x+3x+8

6(x−2)=8x+8

6x−12=8x+8

−12=8x+8−6x

−12=2x+8

−12−8=2x

−20=2x

-20/2=x

-10=x

x=-10

Hope this helps, now you know the answer and how to do it. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY!

Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

6 • (x - 2) - (8x + 8) = 0

Pulling out like terms :

3.1 Pull out like factors :

-2x - 20 = -2 • (x + 10)

Equation at the end of step 3 :

-2 • (x + 10) = 0

Equations which are never true :

4.1 Solve : -2 = 0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

4.2 Solve : x+10 = 0

Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation :

x = -10

One solution was found :

x = -10

Suppose that a monopolist

daser333 [38]

Answer:

The monopolist's net profit function would be:

$N(y)=198\,y\,-\,2.5\,y^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that perfect price discrimination means that the monopolist would be able to get the maximum price that consumers are willing to pay for his products.

Therefore, if the demand curve is given by the function:

$P(y)=200-2y$

P stands for the price the consumers are willing to pay for the commodity and "y" stands for the quantity of units demanded at that price.

Then, the total income function (I) for the monopolist would be the product of the price the customers are willing to pay (that is function P) times the number of units that are sold at that price (y):

$I(y)=y*P(y)\\I(y)=y\,(200-2y)\\I(y)= 200y-2y^2$

Therefore, the net profit (N) for the monopolist would be the difference between the Income and Cost functions (Income minus Cost):

$N(y)=I(y)-C(y)\\N(y)=(200\,y-2y^2)-(2y+0.5y^2)\\N(y)=198\,y\,-\,2.5\,y^2$

The measure of an angle is seventeen times the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

levacccp [35]

Answer:

The measure of each angle will be 10° and 170°.

Step-by-step explanation:

A supplementary angle refers to an angle that has the sum to be equal to 180°.

Let the small angle be represented by x

Therefore, the big angle will be: = 17 × x = 17x

Therefore, the value of both angles will be:

x + 17x = 180

18x = 180

Divide both side by 18

18x/18 = 180/18

x = 10

Therefore, the bigger angle will be:

17x = 17 × 10 = 170

Therefore, the angles are 10° and 170°
