Answer:
<u>First, find the cost function of DoItRight Housekeeping:</u>
- Slope(m) = cost per hour =
<em>The y-intercept(b), representing the initial cost, can be calculated by substituting in values to the function:</em>
<u>Therefore, the function for two companies are:</u>
- The function for DoItRight is
- The function for CleanIt is
When comparing the two functions, it's shown how CleanIt has a greater y-intercept than DoltRight, meaning that CleanIt has a greater initial cost than DotRight. The y-intercept is when the graph intercepts the y-axis, therefore, the coordinates there would be (0, y-value), which, in this case for CleanIt company, will be (0, 16). While CleanIt has a greater y-intercept(initial cost), DoItRight has a greater slope, meaning they cost more per hour.
The extra amount that Mary would pay for apples under a monopoly instead of perfect competition is B. $3
<h3>Calculations and Parameters:</h3>
From the complete information,
There are images of the prices that can be gotten under a monopoly and the ones that can be gotten in a perfect competition by Mary.
The marginal cost which is graphed against the pound of apples and the price shows Mary would pay $15 and the marginal revenue shows that Mary would pay $12.
Hence, the difference between them, which is the extra amount to be paid would be $15-$12
=$3

Boba all the way, it is delicious and I can't live without it
3/4 times 1 1/2 = 1 1/8
Hope this helps!
if we have a number like say hmm 4, and we say hmmm √4 is ±2, it simply means, that if we multiply that number twice by itself, we get what's inside the root, we get the 4, so (+2)(+2) = 4, and (-2)(-2) = 4, recall that <u>minus times minus = plus</u>.
so, any when we're referring to even roots like ![\bf \sqrt[2]{~~},\sqrt[4]{~~},\sqrt[6]{~~}....](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Csqrt%5B2%5D%7B~~%7D%2C%5Csqrt%5B4%5D%7B~~%7D%2C%5Csqrt%5B6%5D%7B~~%7D....)
, the positive number, that can multiply itself an even amount of times, will produce a valid value, BUT the negative number that multiply itself an even amount of times, will also produce a valid value.
now, that's is not true for odd roots like ![\bf \sqrt[3]{~~},\sqrt[5]{~~},\sqrt[7]{~~}....](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B~~%7D%2C%5Csqrt%5B5%5D%7B~~%7D%2C%5Csqrt%5B7%5D%7B~~%7D....)
, because the multiplication of the negative number will not produce a valid value, let's put two examples on that.
![\bf \sqrt[3]{27}\implies \sqrt[3]{3^3}\implies 3\qquad because\qquad (3)(3)(3)=27 \\\\\\ however\qquad (-3)(-3)(-3)\ne 27~\hspace{8em}(-3)(-3)(-3)=-27 \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \sqrt[3]{-125}\implies \sqrt[3]{-5^3}\implies -5\qquad because\qquad (-5)(-5)(-5)=-125 \\\\\\ however\qquad (5)(5)(5)\ne -125~\hspace{10em}(5)(5)(5)=125](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B27%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B3%5E3%7D%5Cimplies%203%5Cqquad%20because%5Cqquad%20%283%29%283%29%283%29%3D27%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0Ahowever%5Cqquad%20%28-3%29%28-3%29%28-3%29%5Cne%2027~%5Chspace%7B8em%7D%28-3%29%28-3%29%28-3%29%3D-27%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%0A%5Crule%7B34em%7D%7B0.25pt%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B-125%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B-5%5E3%7D%5Cimplies%20-5%5Cqquad%20because%5Cqquad%20%28-5%29%28-5%29%28-5%29%3D-125%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0Ahowever%5Cqquad%20%285%29%285%29%285%29%5Cne%20-125~%5Chspace%7B10em%7D%285%29%285%29%285%29%3D125)
so, when the root is an odd root, you will always get only one number that will produce the radicand.
