(a)
Answer to Problem 100E
The equation is
Explanation of Solution
Given data:
The relation between the rent and number of rooms occupied is a linear function.
Formula used:
Linear equation:
Calculation:
Let the rent of the house be p and number of rooms occupied be s.
If rent is 600$ then 50 rooms will be occupied and when rent is 625$ then 48 rooms will be occupied .
As it is a linear function and for every 50$ the rooms is decreased by 2. So,
Conclusion:
The equation is
(b)
To find: Equation of the line giving demand x in terms of the rent p .
(b)
Answer to Problem 100E
44 rooms will be occupied when rent is 675$.
Explanation of Solution
Given data:
The relation between the rent and number of rooms occupied is a linear function.
Formula used:
Linear equation:
Calculation:
Graph for given equation will be:
x | 50 | 48 | 46 | 44 | 42 | 40 |
p | 600 | 625 | 650 | 675 | 700 | 725 |
No. Of room occupied at the rent of 675$
No. Of room occupied at the rent of 675$
44 rooms will be occupied.
Conclusion:
44 rooms will be occupied when rent is 675$.
(c)
To find: Equation of the line giving demand x in terms of the rent p .
