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.

Determine which system below will produce infinitely many solutions.
vesna_86 [32]
First task:
To determine this we need to make difference between system that doesn't have solution and system that has infinite number of solution. If when solving equations we get   0 = 0 that means system has infinite number of equations.
If we get 0 = some number that means that system doesn't have solution.

Multiplying first equation of second system by 2 and adding it to second equation we get 0=0 which means that this system has infinite number of solutions.

Answer is second system

Second task:
For this we need to set a system of equations and solve it. System looks like this:
x + y = 224
x*12 + y*8=2520
-------------------------
x represents older than 18 and "y" 18 and younger than that.
first equation we multiply with -12 and sum it with second.
-4y = -168
y=168/4 = 42

Answer is 42.
