QUESTION

(20 points) Suppose a rm's inverse demand for their product is P = 200 4Q + 6A", where Q is the number of units sold and A is the dollar amount...

For this question, the solution that I keep getting is -268P+20023.4

My teacher's solution shows that the answer should be -268P+19976.6

Can anyone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong, or is my teacher's solution wrong?
