Answer: -x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x-15 . Both 3 and 15 are variables of 3, this means they can both be divided by 3. -3/3= -1 and -15/3=-5. So -1x-5, or -x-5

Hope this helped! :)

What two numbers add to 9 and multiply to -70

Alborosie

X, y - the numbers

The numbers add to 9 and multiply to -70.
$x+y=9 \\
xy=-70 \\ \\
y=9-x \\
xy=-70 \\ \\
\hbox{substitute 9-x for y in the second equation:} \\
x(9-x)=-70 \\
9x-x^2=-70 \\
-x^2+9x+70=0 \\
-x^2+14x-5x+70=0 \\
-x(x-14)-5(x-14)=0 \\
(-x-5)(x-14)=0 \\
-x-5=0 \ \lor \ x-14=0 \\
x=-5 \ \lor \ x=14 \\ \\
y=9-x \\
y=9-(-5) \ \lor \ y=9-14 \\
y=14 \ \lor \ y=-5 \\ \\
(x,y)=(-5,14) \hbox{ or } (x,y)=(14,-5)$

The numbers are -5 and 14.

The Cool Company determines that the supply function for its basic air conditioning unit is S(p) = 10 + 0.002p3 and that its dem

Radda [10]

Answer: At $21.85, the supply will equal to demand.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Demand function is given by

$D(p) = 50 - 0.04p^2, \text{where p is the price.}$

Supply function is given by

$S(p) = 10 + 0.002p^3$

According to question, we need to find the price for which the supply equals the demand, i.e. Equilibrium price and quantity.

$D(p)=S(p)\\\\50-0.04p^2=10+0.002p^3\\\\50-10=0.002p^3+0.04p^2\\\\40=\frac{2}{1000}p^3+\frac{4}{100}p^2\\\\40=\frac{2}{100}p^2(\frac{1}{10}p+2)\\\\\frac{40\times 100}{2}=p^2(\frac{1p+20}{2})\\\\\mathrm{The\:Newton-Raphson\:method\:uses\:an\:iterative\:process\:to\:approach\:one\:root\:of\:a\:function}\\\\p\approx \:21.85861\dots$

So, at $21.85, the supply will equal to demand.
