The weekly sales of Honolulu Red Oranges is given by q = 896 − 20p.(A) Calculate the price elasticity of demand when the price i
vitfil [10]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

q = 896-20p

p = $32

.(A) Calculate the price elasticity of demand

As we know that

e=-\dfrac{dq}{dp}\times \dfrac{p}{q}\\\\e=-(-20)\times \dfrac{32}{896-20p}\\\\e=\dfrac{20\times 32}{896-20p}\\\\e=\dfrac{640}{896-20p}\\\\e=\dfrac{640}{896-640}\\\\e=\dfrac{640}{256}=2.5

(B) The demand is going down with increase in 15 increase in price at that price level, as we know that there is inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded.

(C)  Also, calculate the price that gives a maximum weekly revenue.

R=pq\\\\R=p(896-20p)\\\\R=896p-20p^2

We first find the first derivative:

R'(p)=896-400p

So, it becomes,

896-40p=0\\\\40p=896\\\\p=\dfrac{896}{40}=\$22.4

R=-40<0, so, it will give maximum revenue.

(D) Find this maximum revenue.

Maximum revenue would be R=pq\\\\R=22.4(896-20\times 22.4)\\\\R=\$10035.2

a bacteria triples it’s original population in 25 hours (A=3A0). How big will it’s population be in 100 hours
Maru [420]

Answer:

81 times the original size

Step-by-step explanation:

AA0ktA=3A0=?=?=25hours=A0ekt

Substitute the values in the formula.

3A0=A0ek⋅25

Solve for k. Divide each side by A0.

3A0A0=e25k

Take the natural log of each side.

ln3=lne25k

Use the power property.

ln3=25klne

Simplify.

ln3=25k

Divide each side by 25.

ln325=k

Approximate the answer.

k≈0.044

We use this rate of growth to predict the number of bacteria there will be in 100 hours.

AA0ktA=3A0=?=ln325=100hours=A0ekt

Substitute in the values.

A=A0eln325⋅100

Evaluate.

A=81A0

At this rate of growth, we can expect the population to be 81 times as large as the original population.

Let g be the function given by g(x)=x^2*e^(kx) , where k is a constant. For what value of k does g have a critical point at x=2/
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
G `( x ) =2x * e^{kx}  + k x^{2} *e^{kx} = \\  = xe^{kx}(2 + kx )
2 + k x = 0
k x = -2
k = -2: x = - 2 : 2/3 = - 2 * 3/2
k = - 3
Answer: for k= - 3, the function g ( x ) have a critical point at x = 2/3.
