A) A local shoe store buys shoes at a wholesale price and then marks them up 80% to calculate the retail price. The wholesale pr

ice varies, depending on the quantity of shoes purchased. (2 points)
Quantity 0-20 pairs 21-40 pairs 41-60 pairs 61-80 pairs 81 or more pairs
Wholesale Price
(per pair) $25.00 each $23.00 each $21.00 each $19.00 each $17.00 each

Write an equation that could be used to find the retail price for each range. How do you know the equation will work consistently for each range?

In this question, the buying price will be lower if the quantity bought is higher. But the markup ratio for retail price is constant at 80% of buying price. If the price of the range is x, then the equation of retail price would be: 
Retail price= x * (100%+80%)
Retail price= x * 180%=
Retail price=  1.8 x

The equation should be same because the markup ratio is same. Only the buying price that will be different based on the quantity of shoe purchased.

A=500\left(1+\frac{0.04}{1}\right)^{1\cdot t}\implies A=500(1+0.04)^t

\textit{after 5 years }t=5\qquad A=500(1.04)^5

the example on your picture uses A(n) and n = years, but is pretty much the same, in this case is t = years.

Suppose that lower production costs increases the supply of wheat, such that more wheat is supplied at each price level. After t
just olya [345]

When the demand and supply curve intersect, that is, where the quantity demanded and quantity supplied are equal, the market is said to be in equilibrium. Thus, the given quantity is equilibrium quantity.

From the graph, we see that when the production cost of wheat is $4, the equilibrium quantity is 600 units.

When the production cost lowers from $4 to $3, the supply of wheat increases, such that the equilibrium quantity increases from 600 units to 800 units.

Thus, after an increase in supply, the equilibrium quantity increases.

So, Option A is the correct answer.

<span>The number of dollars collected can be modelled by both a linear model and an exponential model. To calculate the number of dollars to be calculated on the 6th day based on a linear model, we recall that the formula for the equation of a line is given by (y - y1) / (x - x1) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1), where (x1, y1) = (1, 2) and (x2, y2) = (3, 8) The equation of the line representing the model = (y - 2) / (x - 1) = (8 - 2) / (3 - 1) = 6 / 2 = 3 y - 2 = 3(x - 1) = 3x - 3 y = 3x - 3 + 2 = 3x - 1 Therefore, the amount of dollars to be collected on the 6th day based on the linear model is given by y = 3(6) - 1 = 18 - 1 = $17 To calculate the number of dollars to be calculated on the 6th day based on an exponential model, we recall that the formula for exponential growth is given by y = ar^(x-1), where y is the number of dollars collected and x represent each collection day and a is the amount collected on the first day = $2. 8 = 2r^(3 - 1) = 2r^2 r^2 = 8/2 = 4 r = sqrt(4) = 2 Therefore, the amount of dollars to be collected on the 6th day based on the exponential model is given by y = 2(2)^(5 - 1) = 2(2)^4 = 2(16) = $32</span>
