Sagot :

ATQ

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 1800x+10=0.08x[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto 1800x-0.08x=-10[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x(1800-0.08)=-10[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x(1799.92)=-10[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=|\dfrac{10}{1799.92}|[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto x=0.005[/tex]

Now

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto CP=0.005(2000)=10[/tex]
