Answer:
a is not a linear equation
W=-3m+205
m=number of months
205= weight at first to start the diet
w=weight
a)
m=0
so;
w=-3(0)+205=205
Answer: Chris weight at the start of the diet 205 pounds
b)
W=-3m+205
The weight lost each month is the number beside "m", in this case is -3 pounds
Answer: Chris lose 3 pounds per month
c)
w=205-45=160
so
160=-3m+205
-3m+205=160
-3m=160-205
-3m=-45
m=-45/-3=15
Answer: 15 months.
Answer: Therefore the demand function can be given as;
q = -3/2p + 1590
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that at;
$900 the monthly demand is 240. ....1
$850 the monthly demand is 315. ....2
Since, the function is a linear function. The demand function would be of the form;
q = mp + c ....5
Where q = quantity demanded
p = price m = slope and c = intercept
Substituting conditions 1 and 2 to the equation.
240 = 900m + c. ...3
315 = 850m+ c ...4
Subtracting eqn 4 from 3
-75 = 50m
m = -75/50
m = -3/2
Substituting m = -3/2 into equation 3;
We have,
240= -3/2(900) + c
c = 240 + 3/2(900)
c = 1590
Therefore the demand function can be given as; substituting m and c into equation 5, we have;
q = -3/2p + 1590
