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.

HELP I NEED TO FIND THE COORDINATES OF THE POINTS
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The coordinate of any given point can be written as (x, y), where x is the x coordinate, and y is the y coordinate.

For example, point A has an x coordinate (horizontal) of 5, and a y coordinate (vertical) of 6. So the ordered pair is (5, 6).

Similarly, for the rest we have:

B: (-5,5)

C: (-2,3)

D: (-2,-2)

E: (3,-4)

F: (3,-6)

butalik [34]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  

Please have a look at the attached photo.

My answer:

We need to find the total surface area of the building a skateboard ramp  without its bottom.

  • The Area of the slope: 10.5*25 = 262.5 ft^{2}
  • The Area of the two triangles: 2 (\frac{1}{2} 7*24) = 168 ft^{2}
  • The Area of the back: 10.5*7 = 73.5 ft^{2}

So the total surface area is: 262.5 + 168 +73.5 = 504 ft^{2}

Hence, the number quarts of paint will mario needs to buy is:

504/85 ≈ 6

Hope it will find you well
