We are given the functions:
<span>S (p) = 40 + 0.008 p^3 --->
1</span>
<span>D (p) = 200 – 0.16 p^2 --->
2</span>
T o find for the price in which the price of supply equals
demand, all we have to do is to equate the two equations, equation 1 and 2, and
calculate for the value of p, therefore:
S (p) = D (p)
40 + 0.008 p^3 = 200 – 0.16 p^2
0.008 p^3 + 0.16 p^2 = 160
p^3 + 20 p^2 = 20,000
p^3 + 20 p^2 – 20,000 = 0
Calculating for the roots using the calculator gives us:
p = 21.86, -20.93±21.84i
Since price cannot be imaginary therefore:
p = 21.86

Answer: Yes, he makes a reasonable inference.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of students = 60
Number of chosen science students = 12
Percentage of students who chose science is given by
12/60 x 100
= 1/5 x 100
= 20%
Since Mr. Rodriguez used the data to draw the inference that about 20% of middle school students prefer to read science fiction.
So yes, he makes a reasonable inference.
