The demand function for a type of portable radio is given by the model d=85−6x2, where d is measured in dollars and x is measure

d in millions of units. The production cost is $25.00 per radio. Given that profit = revenue - costs answer the following parts. (Hint: Revenue is demand times number sold. Costs are productions costs per number sold.)
Part A: Write an equation giving profit as a function of x million radios sold. Part B: The company currently produces 3 million radios and makes a profit of $18,000,000, but would like to scale back production. What lesser number of radios could the company produce to yield the same profit?
Part C: Give a graph for the profit and label the parts of the graph.

Answer:

Part A : The required Profit equation : \text{Profit}= 60x-6x^3

Part B : 0.303 million radios the profit became 18 million.

Part C : The graph is attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The demand function for a type of portable radio is given by the model d=85-6x^2, where d is measured in dollars and x is measured in millions of units. The production cost is $25.00 per radio.  

Note: Given that profit = revenue - costs

Revenue is demand times number sold.

Costs are productions costs per number sold.

To find :

Part A: Write an equation giving profit as a function of x million radios sold.

Solution : Let x be the number of radios.

Revenue is demand times number sold

\text{Revenue}= x\times (85-6x^2)

\text{Revenue}= 85x-6x^3

Let the cost of x number of radios is 25x.            

Profit = Revenue - Costs

\text{Profit}= 85x-6x^3-25x

P(x)= 60x-6x^3

The required Profit equation : P(x)= 60x-6x^3

 

Part B : The company currently produces 3 million radios and makes a profit of $18,000,000, but would like to scale back production. What lesser number of radios could the company produce to yield the same profit?

Solution :  It is shown graphically which is attached in part c

When we scale back production we get that,

When we sold 0.303 million radios the profit became 18 million.

Part C : Give a graph for the profit and label the parts of the graph.

The graph is attached below which shows the profitable radios points.

1.What is the ratio of v to v max expressed as a percentage when [s] = 30 km
Helga [31]

Answer:

(a)96.77%

(b)3.23%

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with the Michaelis-Menten equation which is used to model biochemical reactions:

Dividing both sides by V_{\max }}

\dfrac{v}{V_{max}}=\dfrac{[S]}{K_M + [S]}

Where: V_{\max }} = maximum rate achieved by the system

K_{\mathrm {M} }}=The Michaelis constant

{\displaystyle {\ce {[S]}}}= Substrate concentration

(a) When [S]=30K_M

\dfrac{v}{V_{max}}=\dfrac{[S]}{K_M + [S]}\\\dfrac{v}{V_{max}}=\dfrac{30K_M}{K_M + 30K_M}\\\dfrac{v}{V_{max}}=\dfrac{30}{1 + 30}\\\dfrac{v}{V_{max}}=\dfrac{30}{31}\\$Expressed as a percentage\\\dfrac{v}{V_{max}}=\dfrac{30}{31}X100=96.77\%

(b)When K_M=30[S]

\dfrac{v}{V_{max}}=\dfrac{[S]}{K_M + [S]}\\\dfrac{v}{V_{max}}=\dfrac{[S]}{30[S] + [S]}\\\\=\dfrac{1[S]}{30[S] + 1[S]}\\=\dfrac{1}{30 + 1}\\\dfrac{v}{V_{max}}=\dfrac{1}{31}\\$Expressed as a percentage\\\dfrac{v}{V_{max}}=\dfrac{1}{31}X100=3.23\%
