I cannot find the answer on my own, I need a lil' bit of help.

for any fraction a/b, the decimal format of it is just a ÷ b.

is the number rational?

well, a rational number is one we can write as a ration or fraction, well clearly is a fraction so it is rational.

can it be written as a repeating/recurring decimal? well, 9/20 is 0.45, so -9/20 is -0.45, no repeating decimal like 0.454545......... , just a plain vanilla -0.45, so nope.

is it less than -0.4?

well, let's recall that for the negative side on the number line, the closer to 0, the larger the number, so then -1,000,000 is much smaller than -1, because -1 is closer to 0.

who is closer -0.4 or -0.45?

|--------------------- -0.45 -------- -0.40 ------------------- 0 --------------- 1 -------------------|

so, -0.45 is farther from 0, and therefore is smaller than -0.4, so yes.

Answer: 360 = n

Step-by-step explanation:

1500= 5n - 300

+300 +300

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
