In a certain kingdom, the demand function for rye bread was q = 381 − 3p and the supply function was q = 5 + 7p, where p is the

price in zlotys and q is loaves of bread. The king made it illegal to sell rye bread for a price above 32 zlotys per loaf. To avoid shortages, he agreed to pay bakers enough of a subsidy for each loaf of bread so as to make supply equal demand. How much would the subsidy per loaf have to be?

Answer:

  8 zlotys

Step-by-step explanation:

At Z32 per loaf, the demand will be ...

  q = 381 -3(32) = 285 . . . . loaves

In order to produce 285 loaves, bakers must enjoy a price of ...

  285 = 5 +7p

  280/7 = p = 40 . . . . . zlotys per loaf

Since the loaves are sold for Z32, and bakers are expecting to be paid Z40, the subsidy they receive must be ...

  Z40 -Z32 = Z8

The subsidy per loaf would have to be 8 zlotys.

attashe74 [19]

OK, so this is assuming we are considering that the first three kids to solve ARE NOT in the first day.


So we have 3 kids and it doubles

Day 1 : 6

Day 2 : 12

Day 3 : 24

Day 4 : 48

Day 5 : 96

Day 6 : 192

Day 7: 384


So it should take 7 days or a week to solve all the problems.

The equation:

(3 * 2)^x = 384

A group of 18 people ordered soup and sandwiches for lunch. Each person in the group had either one soup or one sandwich. The sa
sergeinik [125]
X - the number of sandwiches ordered
y - the number of soups ordered

There were 18 people, and each person ordered either one soup or one sandwich.
x+y=18

The sandwiches cost $7.75 each, the soups cost $4.50 each. The total cost was $113.50.
7.75x+4.5y=113.5

Set up a system of equations:
x+y=18 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\times (-4.5) \\&#10;7.75x+4.5y=113.5 \\ \\&#10;-4.5x-4.5y=-81 \\&#10;\underline{7.75x+4.5y=113.5} \\&#10;3.25x=32.5 \\&#10;x=\frac{32.5}{3.25} \\&#10;x=10

10 sandwiches were ordered.
The answer is D.

to eliminate the y-terms and solve for x in the fewest steps, by which constants should the equations be multiplied? first equat
Mazyrski [523]

Answer: The first equation should be multiplied by 9 and the second equation by −4, to eliminate the y-terms and solve for x in the fewest steps.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Equation (1) 5x − 4y = 28

Equation (2) 3x - 9y = 30

to eliminate the y-terms and solve for x in the fewest steps, we should multiply  equation (1) by 9 and equation (2) by -4 such that

9(5x − 4y) =9 (28)⇒45x-36y=252

-4(3x - 9y) = -4(30)⇒ -12x+36y= -120

Now adding both equations, y-term eliminated and we get, 45x-12x=132

⇒33x=132⇒x=4.
