Answer:

  20 rands/kg

  130,000 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The equilibrium quantity and price are the solution to the system of equations ...

  p = 120 -0.7q

  p = 3 + 0.2q

Setting these equal, we get ...

  0.2q +3 = p = -0.7q +120

  0.9q = 117 . . . . . . . add 0.7q-3 to both sides

  q = 117/0.9 = 130

  p = 3 +0.2·130 = 29

The equilibrium price of maize meal is 29 rands per kg; the market equilibrium quantity is 130,000 kg.

I need help finding surface area for both of these shapes with work
Alex73 [517]
For the base of the shape all you need to do is multiply 25x25=625ft²

then for the 4 sides you need to multiply 25x32=800ft²

and because there are 4 sides you multiply 800x4=3200

so now you add 3200 with 625 (3825) and there's your area
