First factor 20x^2
(4x and 5x)
(4x-1)(5x+4)=0
4x-1=0
x=1/4
5x+4=0
x=-4/5

For the following demand equation compute the elasticity of demand and determine whether the demand is elastic, unitary, or inel

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Demand is inelastic at p = 9 and therefore revenue will increase with

an increase in price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a demand function that gives q in terms of p, the elasticity of demand is

$E=|\frac{p}{q}\cdot \frac{dq}{dp} |$

If E < 1, we say demand is inelastic. In this case, raising prices increases revenue.
If E > 1, we say demand is elastic. In this case, raising prices decreases revenue.
If E = 1, we say demand is unitary.

We have the following demand equation $D(p)=-\frac{3}{4}p+29$ ; p = 9

Applying the above definition of elasticity of demand we get:

$E(p)=\frac{p}{q}\cdot \frac{dq}{dp}$

where

p = 9
q = $-\frac{3}{4}p+29$
$\frac{dq}{dp}=\frac{d}{dp}(-\frac{3}{4}p+29)$

$\frac{d}{dp}\left(-\frac{3}{4}p+29\right)=-\frac{d}{dp}\left(\frac{3}{4}p\right)+\frac{d}{dp}\left(29\right)\\\\\frac{d}{dp}\left(-\frac{3}{4}p+29\right)=-\frac{3}{4}$

Substituting the values

$E(9)=\frac{9}{-\frac{3}{4}(9)+29}\cdot -\frac{3}{4}\\\\E(9)=\frac{36}{89}\cdot -\frac{3}{4}\\\\E(9)=-\frac{27}{89}\approx -0.30337$

$|E(9)|=|\frac{27}{89}| < 1$

Demand is inelastic at p = 9 and therefore revenue will increase with an increase in price.

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that passes through the given points.

zmey [24]

Answer:

Slope=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope=y1-y2/x1-x2

Where x1,y1= (1, 1) and X2,y2=(-3, -3)

Slop=1+3/1+4

=4/4

So the slope is 1.

Answer:

1) The correct option is C. (2) The correct option is D. (3) The correct option is B. (4) The correct option is D. (5) The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

(1)

Two points are (-2,5) and (1,4).

$m=\frac{4-5}{1-(-2)}=\frac{-1}{3}tex]Therefore option C is correct.(2)Use the above mentioned formula for each pair of coordinates.[tex]m=\frac{10-13}{17-12}=\frac{-3}{5}$

$m=\frac{10-15}{13-16}=\frac{-5}{-3}=\frac{5}{3}$

$m=\frac{10-7}{3-0}=\frac{3}{3}=1$

$m=\frac{18-13}{8-11}=\frac{5}{-3}=\frac{-5}{3}$

Therefore option D is correct.

(3)

The pair of points (6, y) and (10, -1). The slope is $\frac{1}{4}$ .

$\frac{1}{4}=\frac{-1-y}{10-6}$

$\frac{1}{4}=\frac{-1-y}{4}$

$1=-1-y$

$y=-2$

Therefore option B is correct.

(4)

For vertical line the x coordinates always remains the same. Therefore when we subtract the same number we get zero in the denominator, therefore the value of slope is undefined for a vertical line.

Therefore option D is correct.

(5)

Two points from the table are (2,110) and (3,165).

$m=\frac{165-110}{3-2}=\frac{55}{1}$

Therefore option D is correct.
