You have been hired as a marketing consultant to Johannesburg Burger Supply, Inc., and you wish to come up with a unit price for

its hamburgers in order to maximize its weekly revenue. To make life as simple as possible, you assume that the demand equation for Johannesburg hamburgers is linear. (a) Your market studies reveal the following sales figures: When the price is set at $2.00 per hamburger, the sales amount to 6000 per week, but when the price is set at $4.00 per hamburger, the sales drop to zero. Use these data to find the linear demand function q(p), where p is the price per hamburger and q is the number of hamburgers they sell at that price per week.

Answer:

q(p)= -3000p+12000

Step-by-step explanation:

For the function to be linear,

q(p)= mp + c

where

q(p): number of hamburgers sold

p: price per hamburger

m: gradient of the function

c: constant of the function

q(p)=6000 when p=2

6000=2m+c .................... equation I

0=4m+c

c=-4m........................ equation II

Substitute value of c in equation I

6000=2m-4m

m= -3000

c=12000

q(p)= -3000p+12000

How many solutions does this linear system have? y = y equals StartFraction 2 over 3 EndFraction x plus 2.x+ 2 6x – 4y = –10
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The system has one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the system of equations

y=\frac{2}{3}x+2 ----> equation A

6x-4y=-10 ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation A in equation B

6x-4(\frac{2}{3}x+2)=-10

6x-\frac{8}{3}x-8=-10

Solve for x

Multiply by 3 both sides to remove the fraction

18x-8x-24=-30

Combine like terms

10x=-30+24

10x=-6

x=-\frac{6}{10}

Simplify

x=-\frac{3}{5}

<em>Find the value of y</em>

y=\frac{2}{3}(-\frac{3}{5})+2

y=-\frac{6}{15}+2

y=\frac{24}{15}

Simplify

y=\frac{8}{5}

The solution of the system is the point (-\frac{3}{5},\frac{8}{5})

therefore

The system has one solution
