The valid solution for the positive demand is (6,3)
How to determine the valid solutions?
The equation of the function is given as:
[tex]C(t) = -\sqrt{t^2 - 4t - 12} + 3[/tex]
Next, we test the options::
Option (a): (t, C(t)) = (2,3)
This gives
[tex]-\sqrt{2^2 - 4*2 - 12} + 3 = 3[/tex]
Evaluate the radicand
[tex]-\sqrt{-16} + 3 = 3[/tex] ---- this is not true (square root of -16 is a complex number)
Option (b): (t, C(t)) = (6,3)
This gives
[tex]-\sqrt{6^2 - 4*6 - 12} + 3 = 3[/tex]
Evaluate the radicand
[tex]-\sqrt{0} + 3 = 3[/tex]
Evaluate the root
0 + 3 = 3
Evaluate the sum
3 = 3 ---- this is true
Hence, the valid solution for the positive demand is (6,3)
