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

- 51.35

----------------

Invert the operation because since the result is a negative number, we cannot operate 51 of 45. Just keep in mind that the result is going to be negative because 51 is bigger than 45.

White raven [17]

Answer:

A. (2,-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

(×-2)²+(y+6)²=10

Equating it with

(×-h)²+(y -k)²=10

h = 2 & k = - 6

(h, k) = (2, - 6)

The question is an illustration of a division model.

The boxes will be completed with: 1650, 231, 50 and 7

The expression is represented as:

$\mathbf{1881 \div 33}$

Express 1881 as 1650 + 231.

$\mathbf{1881 \div 33 = (1650 + 231) \div 33}$

Split

$\mathbf{1881 \div 33 = 1650 \div 33 + 231 \div 33}$

Evaluate each division

$\mathbf{1881 \div 33 = 50 + 7}$

$\mathbf{1881 \div 33 = 57}$

The above illustration means that, the boxes will be completed with the following numbers

1650
231
50
7
