Negative divided by negative makes a positive
We know that Step 1 is correct, because it is just a restatement of the equation. Therefore, we can eliminate Step 1:
2(5y – 2) = 12 + 6y
In Step 2, the student tried using the Distributive Property. The Distributive Property can be written as one of the two following formulas:
a(b + c) = ab + ac
a(b – c) = ab – ac
In this case, we'll use the second formula. Substitute any known values into the equation above and simplify:
2(5y – 2) = 2(5y) – 2(2)
2(5y – 2) = 10y – 4
In Step 2, the student calculated 2(5y – 2) to equal 7y – 4. However, we have just proven that 2(5y – 2) is equal to 10y – 4.
The student first made an error in Step 2, and the correct step is:
Step 2: 10y – 4 = 12 + 6y
I hope this helps!
The answer is B becuase if u take the reciplericle by the antiretroviral you would get B

Theres not enough info. given to solve the prob, post more info.

Answer:
Demand is Elastic when Price > 200 ; Demand is inelastic when Price < 200
Step-by-step explanation:
p = 400 - 4x
4x = 400 - p
x = (400 - p) / 4 → x = 100 - p/4
Elasticity of demand [ P ed ] = (Δx / Δp) x (p / x)
Δx / Δp [Differentiating x w.r.t p] = 0 - 1/4 → = -1/4
P ed = <u>-1</u> x<u> p </u>
4 (400 - p)/4
= <u>-1</u> x <u> 4p </u> = -p / (400-p)
4 (400 - p)
Price Elasticity of demand : only magnitude is considered, negative sign is ignored (due to negative price demand relationship as per law of demand).
So, Ped = p / (400 - p)
Demand is Elastic when P.ed > 1
p / (400-p) > 1
p > 400 - p
p + p > 400 → 2p > 400
p > 400 / 2 → p > 200
Demand is inelastic when P.ed < 1
p / (400-p) < 1
p < 400 - p
p + p < 400 → 2p < 400
p < 400 / 2 → p < 200
