Photon Lighting Company determines that the supply and demand functions for its most popular lamp are as follows: S(p) = 400 - 4
BlackZzzverrR [31]
S(p) = 400 - 4p + 0.00002p^4
D(p) = 2800 - 0.0012p^3

S(p) = D(p)
400 - 4p + 0.00002p^4 = 2800 - 0.0012p^3
0.00002p^4 + 0.0012p^3 - 4p - 2400 = 0
p = $96.24

Solve the system using elimination. x + 2y = –6 3x + 8y = –20 (–4, –1) (–4, 4) (–1, –4) (3, 1)
Orlov [11]

x + 2y =  - 6 >  >  > 3x =  - 18 - 6y
- 18 - 6y + 8y =  - 20 >  >  > 2y =  - 2 >  > y =  - 1
so x=4

$290, 12.5%, 6 months
Veronika [31]
The information shown here only shows a principal sum, a rate of interest and a period or time. There is no question as to what is needed. But suppose the need is for simple interest, then we calculate using the given information and the formula: I = PRT where I is simple interest, P is the principal, R is the rate per year, and T is time P = 290, T is 6 months which is 0.5 years, R = 12.5 % which is written as 0.125 in decimal fraction. I = 290 × 0.125 x 0.5 → I = 18.125 Therefore after 6 months , the interest earned will be 18. 125 dollars

Emery looks out their apartment window to the building across the way. The building isknown to be 42 feet tall. The angle of dep
Amanda [17]

Answer:

x=44.5ft

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height h=42ft

Angle of depression \theta=27\textdegree

Angle of Elevation \alpha=23 \textdegree

Generally the equation for the vertical distance between Emery's distance x and the bottom of the building  is mathematically given by

Since the angle of depression and elevation are given as

27 and 23 respectively

Therefore

Emery's view of the 42 ft building is

\gamma=23+27

\gamma=50  \textdegree

Therefore Emery's distance x to the base of the building h' is

h'=\frac{27}{50}*42

h'=22.68ft

Generally the Trigonometric equation for Emery's distance x is mathematically given by

x=\frac{h'}{tan\theta}

x=\frac{22.68}{tan 27}

x=44.5ft
