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.

Jorge wants to find the most popular way for teens to volunteer in the community. He cannot decide between two methods. Option 1
ale4655 [162]
Option 2 would be biased.  Asking people participating in a walkathon means you are asking people that are already volunteering.  To get a non-biased sample, you have to be sure that you are including people that are not guaranteed to be volunteers; you don't have that in this situation.

Evaluate g(x) = 0.023x3 + 0.4x2 − 2.1x + 8.3 for x = 2 and x = 4.
vivado [14]

Plug in 2 and 4 for every instance of x in the function g(x).

g(x) = 0.023x³ + 0.4x² − 2.1x + 8.3

g(2) = 0.023(2)³ + 0.4(2)² − 2.1(2) + 8.3 = 5.884

g(4) = 0.023(4)³ + 0.4(4)² − 2.1(4) + 8.3 = 7.772

answer: 5.884 and 7.772
