Answer: y=-1/3x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation that contains the given point and has the same slope, we can plug it into slope-intercept form to find the y-intercept.

3=-1/3(-6)+b [multiply]

3=2+b [subtract both sides by 2]

b=1

Now that we know the y-intercept, we know that the equation is y=-1/3x+1.

Suppose customers in a hardware store are willing to buy N(p) boxes of nails at p dollars per box, as given by the following f

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

a) -15 unites per dollar

b) -12 units per dollar

c) -18 units per dollar

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

$N(p) = 100-3p^2, 1\leq p \leq 4$

where N(p) is the number of boxes of nails at p dollars per box.

a) average rate of change of demand for a change in price from $2 to $3.

Average rate of change =

$\displaystyle\frac{N(3) -N(2)}{3-2}\\\\=\frac{100-3(3)^2-(100 - 3(2)^2)}{1}\\\\= -15\text{ units per dollar}$

b) instantaneous rate of change of demand when the price is $2

Instantaneous rate =

$N'(p) = \displaystyle\frac{d(N(p))}{dp} = -6p$

$N'(2) = -6(2) = -12$

The instantaneous rate of change of demand when the price is $2 is decreasing at 12 units per dollar.

c) instantaneous rate of change of demand when the price is $3

Instantaneous rate =

$N'(3) = -6(8) = -18$

The instantaneous rate of change of demand when the price is $3 is decreasing at 18 units per dollar.
