Photon Lighting Company determines that the supply and demand functions for its most popular lamp are as follows: S(p) = 400 - 4

p + 0.00002p4 and D(p) = 2,800 - 0.0012p3, where p is the price. Determine the price for which the supply equals the demand.

S(p)=D(p)
400-4p+0.00002p4=2,800-0.0012p3
Solve for p
P=96.24

Answer:

<h2>When the price is approximately $92.35, the demand and supply are equal.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are

S(p)=400-4p+0.00002p^{4}\\ D(p)=2800-0.0012p^{3}

Where S(p) represents the supply, D(p) represents the demand and p the price.

So, to determine the price for which the supply equals the demand, we just need to use the given functions as,

S(p)=D(p)\\400-4p+0.00002p^{4}=2800-0.0012p^{3}

Then, we solve for p

400-4p+0.00002p^{4}=2800-0.0012p^{3}\\400-4p+0.00002p^{4}-2800+0.0012p^{3}=0\\0.00002p^{4}+0.0012p^{3}-2400=0

So, using a calculator, we have

p\approx 92.35\\p\approx -123.58

However, only the positive solution make sense to this problem, because we are looking for the price.

Therefore, when the price is approximately $92.35, the demand and supply are equal.

13. Given the volume, V, of the rectangular prism below, find h, the height of the prism. V = (x ^ 2 + 2x)/(x + 1) l= 2x + 4 w=
NikAS [45]

Given:

Volume of a rectangular prism is:

V=\dfrac{x^2+2x}{x+1}

Dimensions of the rectangular prism are:

l=2x+4

w=\dfrac{x}{8}

To find:

The height of the rectangular prism.

Solution:

The volume of a rectangular prism is:

V=l\times w\times h

After substituting the values, we get

\dfrac{x^2+2x}{x+1}=(2x+4)\times \dfrac{x}{8}\times h

\dfrac{x(x+2)}{x+1}=\dfrac{2x(x+2)}{8}\times h

\dfrac{x(x+2)}{x+1}\times \dfrac{8}{2x(x+2)}=h

\dfrac{1}{x+1}\times \dfrac{8}{2}=h

\dfrac{4}{x+1}=h

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Each face of a small cube has a surface area of 0.25 square meters. A larger cube has edges that are six times as long as the ed
bezimeni [28]
First, you need to find the length of the smaller cubes side. To do this you would need to find the square root of 0.25. then you find the volume with the new found side length of the smaller cube by cubing the new side length and once you have your volume of smaller cube right it down.
Now you need to find the big cube volume by cubing its side length. Once you have found both of these volumes you subtract the smaller cube's volume from the bigger cube's volume to get the difference in size. Hope this helps

If Rachel were to paint her living room alone it would take five hours her sister Barbara could do the job in eight hours how ma
viva [34]

Answer:

40/13 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 1 represent the room being painted.

1/5 would represent 1/5 of a room painted in 1 hour.

1/8 would represent 1/8 of a room being painted in 1 hour

But they are are working together so

(1/5)x + (1/8)x = 1

The lowest common denominator is 5 * 8 = 40

[(1/5)x * 40 + (1/8)x * 40] = 1

8x + 5x = 40

13x = 40

x = 40/13

x = 3.077 hours

But you want a fraction as your answer so it is 3 1/13 or 40/13

You should notice that 3.077 is smaller than the lowest amount of time both of them use. That always happens with these questions.
