Answer: See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The price elasticity of demand will be calculated as:

q = 860 − 20p.

dq/do = -20

p = 38

Elasticity E(p) = (p/q) × dq/dp

= [38 /(860 - 20p)] × (20)

=38 × 20/(860 - 760)

= 7.6

Therefore, the price elasticity of demand when the price is $38 per orange is 7.6

Revenue = price × quantity

= p × q

= p × (860 − 20p)

= 860p - 20p²

Differentiating with respect to p

= 860 - 40p

40p = 860

p = 860/40

p = 21.50

Maximum Revenue = 860p - 20p²

= 860(21.50) - 20(21.50)²

= 18490 - 9245

= 9245

Quiz 3.1
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Leading coefficient -1 and Degree 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Leading coefficients mean the number associated with the variable that has the highest degree in your question

Y=7x^2-x^6+3

The highest degree is 6 and the leading coefficient would the number associated with x^6 which is -1 so the last option is correct

Is this a geometric sequence: 256, 192, 144, 108.
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

For GP, Tn = ar^(n-1), where a = first term and r = common ratio, again,

r = Tn/Tn-1

All we will do is to verify

if T2/T1 = T3/T2

 192/256 = 144/192

 0.75       =  0.75


Conclusion:

 As T2/T1 = T3/T2 which is 0.75  =  0.75, therefore, It is a Geometric Progression (GP)

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is x-3y=-18
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: y = 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation: Convert the equation to slope intercept form to get y = –1/3x + 2.  The old slope is –1/3 and the new slope is 3.  Perpendicular slopes must be opposite reciprocals of each other:  m1 * m2 = –1

With the new slope, use the slope intercept form and the point to calculate the intercept: y = mx + b or 5 = 3(1) + b, so b = 2

So y = 3x + 2
