The inverse of the demand function is; P = 9 - 0.25Q

The profit-maximizing price and quantity are; $8.5 and 2 units.

The maximum profit is; $1

<h3>How to find the inverse of a function?</h3>

A) The demand function we are given is;

Q = 36 - 4P

Making P the subject gives the inverse demand function;

P = (36 - Q)/4

P = 9 - Q/4

P = 9 - 0.25Q

B) The profit-maximization point is the point at which MR = MC.

MR refers to the marginal revenue and MC is the marginal cost.

MC can be calculated as the first derivative of the cost function:

C(Q) = 4 + 4Q + Q²

MC = C'(Q) = 2Q + 4

Total Revenue = Price * Quantity

Total Revenue = (9 - 0.25Q) * Q

Total Revenue = 9Q - 0.25Q²

MR is gotten by differentiating Total Revenue to get;

MR = 9 - 0.5Q

Applying the condition MR = MC, we have;

9 - 0.5Q = 4 - 2Q

Solving for Q gives Q = 2

Thus, profit maximizing quantity is 2.

Thus, profit maximizing price will be;

P(2) = 9 - 0.25(2)

P(2) = $8.5

C) Formula for Maximum Profit is;

Profit = Total Revenue - Total Cost

Total Revenue = 8.5 * 2

Total revenue = $17

Total Cost is;

C(2) = 4 + 4(2) + 2²

C(2) = $16

Thus;

Maximum Profit = 17 - 16 = $1

A rectangular garden has a perimeter of 172 feet. The length of the garden is 24 feet more than the width. What are the dimensio
Lilit [14]
Given width is 24 less than length.
W=L-24
Perimeter = 2(W+L)=2(L-24+L)=4L-48 
But we're also given perimeter = 172'
Therefore 4L-48=172
solve for L
4L=172+48=220
L=55'
W=55-24 =  31'
Check: Perimeter = 2(W+L)=2(31+55)=2*86=172'  good!

Answer: The dimensions of the garden are 31' * 55'

If you are currently making 6.75 per hour and you’re offered a new job that pays 7.47 per hour how much more would you make per
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

$0.72

Step-by-step explanation:

You are contrasting the numbers, so that means you are subtracting. When you subtract, the larger number goes on top..

7.47 - 6.75 = ?

So then you subtract and get $0.72.

I will make $0.72 more than I was at my current job.
