First, we need to find the total fraction of her raisins she used:

1/4 + 3/8 = 2/8 + 3/8

She used 5/8 of her supply.

Knowing this:

5/8x = 5

We multiply by 8 (the LCD)

5x = 40

x = 8

Her supply was 8 pounds, and after making the food, she now has 3 pounds

ki77a [65]

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

With regards to the above, since 1/4 of the volunteers are teenagers, the fraction of the volunteers would be

= 1 - 1/4

= 3/4

It therefore means that 3/4 of the volunteers are teenagers.

Find the value of x so that the function has the given value
True [87]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are looking for the value of x so that the function has the given value in the following:

1) h(x) = -7x; h(x)=63

From the function given above,

If h(x) = 63, then,

h(x) = 63 = -7x

-7x = 63

Dividing the left hand side and right hand side of the equation by -7, it becomes

-7x/-7 = 63/-7

x = - 9

2) m(x) = 4x + 15; m(x)=7

From the function given above,

If m(x) = 7, then,

m(x) = 7 = 4x + 15

7 = 4x + 15

4x = 15 - 7 = 8

Dividing the left hand side and right hand side of the equation by 4, it becomes

4x/4 = 8/4

x = 2

3) q(x) = 1/2x - 3; q(x) = -4

From the function given above,

If q(x) = - 4, then,

q(x) = - 4 = 1/(2x - 3) =

Cross multiplying,

-4(2x-3) = 1

-8x +12 = 1

Collecting like terms,

-8x = 1 - 12

-8x = -11

Dividing the left hand side and right hand side of the equation by -8, it becomes

-8x/8 = -11/-8

x = 11/8

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
