Answer:

3) -19 - 17i is our answer

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve A - BC we plug in the values given

A= -3 + 5i

B = 4 - 2i

C = 1 + 6i

-3 + 51i - (4 - 2i)(1 + 6i) is our expression. we can FOIL (4 - 2i)(1 + 6i) this expression out. FOIL stands for:

First

Outside

Inside

Last

i will highlight the terms i am using in the current step in bold and put the result next of those two terms next to the expression

F: (4 - 2i)(1 + 6i) = 4

O: (4 - 2i)(1 + 6i) = 24i

I: (4 - 2i)(1 + 6i) = -2i

L: (4 - 2i)(1 + 6i) = 12 < --- the reason why its 12 and not -12i or 12i is because <em>i</em> = √-1 and i² = -1

when we multiply -2i * 6i, we would have gotten a -12i², and i² = -1, so we are multiplying -12 by -1, which gives us 12 as the result

combining all these terms together and we have:

4 + 24i - 2i + 12

in the expression this is:

-3 + 5i - (4 + 24i - 2i + 12) < we need to distribute the negative sign into (4 + 24i - 2i + 12) and we now get:

-3 + 5i -4 - 24i + 2i - 12 < combine like terms (ex: i terms together)

-3 - 4 - 12 = -19

5i - 24i + 2i = -17i

the result of the expression is:

-19 - 17i

we cannot simplify this any further so this is our answer. the answer choice that matches this is 3, so 3) -19 - 17i is our answer

ella [17]

The demand equation illustrates the price of an item and how it relates to the demand of the item.

  • The slope of the demand function is -1/2
  • The equation of the demand function is: R(x) = (300 - 10x) \times (20 + 5x)
  • The price that maximizes her revenue is: Ghc 85

From the question, we have:

Plates = 300

Price = 20

The number of plates (x) decreases by 10, while the price (y) increases by 5. The table of value is:

\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {300} & {290} & {280} & {270} & {260} \ \\ y & {20} & {25} & {30} & {35} & {40} \ \end{array}

The slope (m) is calculated using:

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

So, we have:

m = \frac{25-20}{290-300}

m = \frac{5}{-10}

m = -\frac{1}{2}

The equation of the demand is as follows:

The initial number of plates (300) decreases by 10 is represented as: (300 - 10x).

Similarly, the initial price (20) increases by 5 is represented as: (20 + 5x).

So, the demand equation is:

R(x) = (300 - 10x) \times (20 + 5x)

Open the brackets to calculate the maximum revenue

R(x) =6000 + 1500x - 200x - 50x^2

R(x) =6000 + 1300x - 50x^2

Equate to 0

6000 + 1300x - 50x^2 =0

Differentiate with respect to x

1300 - 100x =0

Collect like terms

100x =1300

Divide by 100

x =13

So, the price at maximum revenue is:

Price= 20 + 5x

Price= 20 + 5 * 13

Price= 85

In conclusion:

  • The slope of the demand function is -1/2
  • The equation of the demand function is: R(x) = (300 - 10x) \times (20 + 5x)
  • The price that maximizes her revenue is: Ghc 85
