Answer:
12.0 tablet computers/month
Step-by-step explanation:
The average price of the tablet 25 months from now will be:
Next, we determine the rate at which the quantity demanded changes with respect to time.
Using Chain Rule (and a calculator)
![\dfrac{dx}{dp}= \dfrac{d}{dp}\left[{ \dfrac { 100 } { 9 } \sqrt { 810,000 - p ^ { 2 } } }\right] =-\dfrac{100}{9}p(810,000-p^2)^{-1/2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bdx%7D%7Bdp%7D%3D%20%5Cdfrac%7Bd%7D%7Bdp%7D%5Cleft%5B%7B%20%5Cdfrac%20%7B%20100%20%7D%20%7B%209%20%7D%20%5Csqrt%20%7B%20810%2C000%20-%20p%20%5E%20%7B%202%20%7D%20%7D%20%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D-%5Cdfrac%7B100%7D%7B9%7Dp%28810%2C000-p%5E2%29%5E%7B-1%2F2%7D)
![\dfrac{dp}{dt}=\dfrac{d}{dt}\left[\dfrac { 400 } { 1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { t } } + 200 \right]=-25\left[1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { t } \right]^{-2}t^{-1/2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bdp%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7Bd%7D%7Bdt%7D%5Cleft%5B%5Cdfrac%20%7B%20400%20%7D%20%7B%201%20%2B%20%5Cdfrac%20%7B%201%20%7D%20%7B%208%20%7D%20%5Csqrt%20%7B%20t%20%7D%20%7D%20%2B%20200%20%5Cright%5D%3D-25%5Cleft%5B1%20%2B%20%5Cdfrac%20%7B%201%20%7D%20%7B%208%20%7D%20%5Csqrt%20%7B%20t%20%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5E%7B-2%7Dt%5E%7B-1%2F2%7D)
Therefore:
![\dfrac{dx}{dt}= \left[-\dfrac{100}{9}p(810,000-p^2)^{-1/2}\right]\left[-25\left[1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt { t } \right]^{-2}t^{-1/2}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bdx%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D%20%5Cleft%5B-%5Cdfrac%7B100%7D%7B9%7Dp%28810%2C000-p%5E2%29%5E%7B-1%2F2%7D%5Cright%5D%5Cleft%5B-25%5Cleft%5B1%20%2B%20%5Cdfrac%20%7B%201%20%7D%20%7B%208%20%7D%20%5Csqrt%20%7B%20t%20%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5E%7B-2%7Dt%5E%7B-1%2F2%7D%5Cright%5D)
Recall that at t=25, 
Therefore:
![\dfrac{dx}{dt}(25)= \left[-\dfrac{100}{9}\times 446.15(810,000-446.15^2)^{-1/2}\right]\left[-25\left[1 + \dfrac { 1 } { 8 } \sqrt {25} \right]^{-2}25^{-1/2}\right]\\=12.009](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bdx%7D%7Bdt%7D%2825%29%3D%20%5Cleft%5B-%5Cdfrac%7B100%7D%7B9%7D%5Ctimes%20446.15%28810%2C000-446.15%5E2%29%5E%7B-1%2F2%7D%5Cright%5D%5Cleft%5B-25%5Cleft%5B1%20%2B%20%5Cdfrac%20%7B%201%20%7D%20%7B%208%20%7D%20%5Csqrt%20%7B25%7D%20%5Cright%5D%5E%7B-2%7D25%5E%7B-1%2F2%7D%5Cright%5D%5C%5C%3D12.009)
The quantity demanded per month of the tablet computers will be changing at a rate of 12 tablet computers/month correct to 1 decimal place.
100,000 30,000 7,000
the first one i believe
1. Y=X-4
2. Y=X*4
3. Y=X+3
4. Y=X/6
I'm going to use the slope formula which is
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points the line goes through
Slope of line PQ
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-6 - 8)/(-5 - (-7))
m = (-6 - 8)/(-5 + 7)
m = (-14)/(2)
m = -7
The slope of line PQ is -7
Slope of RS
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (0 - (-5))/(-2 - 3)
m = (0 + 5)/(-2 - 3)
m = (5)/(-5)
m = -1
The slope of line RS is -1
Because the slopes are NOT equal (one is -7 and the other is -1), this means the lines are NOT parallel.

Answer: Choice B) No, the lines have unequal slopes
