Answer:
(-24, -8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us recall that when we have a function f

<em>if the gradient of f at a given point (x,y) exists, then the gradient of f at this point (x,y) gives the direction of maximum rate of increasing and minus the gradient of f at this point gives the direction of maximum rate of decreasing</em>. That is

at the point (x,y) gives the direction of maximum rate of increasing

at the point (x,y) gives the direction of maximum rate of decreasing
In this case we have

and we want to find the direction of fastest speed of decreasing at the point (-3,-2)

at the point (-3,-2) minus the gradient equals

hence the vector (-24,-8) points in the direction with the greatest rate of decreasing, and they should start their descent in that direction.
Answer:
25% of 30% of 400 = 30
33% decrease in value
Step-by-step explanation:
You can either get 30% of 400 first then 25% of 400 or you can get the total percentage of 400.
Method 1:
30% of 400 = 0.3 of 400 = 0.3 * 400 = 120
25% of 120 = .25 of 120 = .25 * 120 = 30
Method 2:
30% of 25% = 0.3 * 0.25 = 0.075 = 7.5% of 400
7.5% of 400 = 0.075 of 400 = 0.075 * 400 = 30
5.) To find the percentage of the new price, you can build the equation below.




The percentage decrease in price is then 100% of the original price - 66.667% of the original price = 100% - 66.67% = 33.33% = 33% decrease.
In triangle ABC, two angles angle A and C are already given
Angle A =33.7
Angle C = 26.4
We know that the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degree
Angle A + B + C = 180
33.7 + angle B + 26.4 = 180
60.1 + angle B = 180
Angle B = 119.9 degrees
Now we use sin angle formula to find b. Given a=24



b = 37.4979
Round answer to two decimal places
b = 37.50
Answer:
a. Using the inverse demand for each, solve for the social marginal benefit curve.
Bob: Scott:
Q = 40-P Q = 30 – P
(-1)Q – 40 = -P(-1) (-1)Q – 30 = -2P
40 – Q = P 30 – Q = 2P
((30 – Q) = 2P)/2
15 – 1/2Q = P
P = 15 – 1/2Q + 40 – Q
P = 55 – 1.5Q
Scott is no longer willing to pay anything when Q >30
Social Marginal Benefit curve: Q = 40 - P
b. What is the socially efficient amount of plowing?
SMB = SMC
35 = 55 – 1.5Q
Subtract from both sides and rearrange
1.5Q = 20
Q = 13.33
c. Suppose the input costs of plowing fell and marginal costs of plowing were now constant at $5.
55 – 1.5Q = 5
55-5 = 1.5Q
50 = 1.5Q
33.3 = Q*
