8.49/4 = 2.1225

Sunblock 1 costs $2.12 per ounce of sunblock.

10.29/5 = 2.058

Sunblock 2 costs $2.06 per ounce of sunblock.

Sunblock 2 is the better buy because it is cheaper ounce-per-ounce.

Solve the absolute value inequality: |x + 12| + 5 < 27 Isolate the absolute value by subtracting 5 from both sides.

Feliz [49]

Answer:

- 34 < x < 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities of the type | x | < a, always have a solution of the form

- a < x < a

given | x + 12 | + 5 < 27 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

| x + 12 | < 22, then

- 22 < x + 12 < 22 ( subtract 12 from all 3 intervals )

- 34 < x < 10

If you have a demand function of Qd=48-9P and a supply function of Qs=-12+6P,

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The equilibrium quantity is 26.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Q_d = 48 - 9P$

$Q_s = 12 + 6P$

Required

Determine the equilibrium quantity

First, we need to determine the equilibrium by equating Qd to Qs

i.e.

$Q_d = Q_s$

This gives:

$48 -9P = 12 + 6P$

Collect Like Terms

$-9P - 6P = 12 - 48$

$-15P = -36$

Solve for P

$P = \frac{-36}{-15}$

$P =2.4$

This is the equilibrium price.

Substitute 2.4 for P in any of the quantity functions to give the equilibrium quantity:

$Q_d = 48 - 9P$

$Q_d = 48 - 9 * 2.4$

$Q_d = 26.4$

<em>Hence, the equilibrium quantity is 26.4</em>
