Answer:
A) 96 + x ≤ 149
Step-by-step explanation:
The airplane can hold 149 passengers.
There are already 96 passengers on board.
They can add x additional passengers, as long as they bring the total to no more than 149.
The inequality is
96 + x ≤ 149
Answer:
4 bags of chocolate chips and 1 bag of walnuts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find how many ounces are in 3 pounds:
16 oz = 1 lb
16 oz × 3 = 3 lbs
48 oz = 3 lbs
Variable x = number of chocolate chips
Variable y = number of walnuts
4x + 1y = 15
Keep in mind it must equal up to 48 oz and be $15 or under.
4 bags × 12 oz = 48 oz
1 bag × 4 oz = 4 oz
48 oz + 4 oz = 52 oz > 48 oz
4 bags × $3 = $12
1 bag × $2 = $2
$12 + $2 = $14 < $15
Both requirements have been met.
Answer:
The monopolist's net profit function would be:

Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that perfect price discrimination means that the monopolist would be able to get the maximum price that consumers are willing to pay for his products.
Therefore, if the demand curve is given by the function:

P stands for the price the consumers are willing to pay for the commodity and "y" stands for the quantity of units demanded at that price.
Then, the total income function (I) for the monopolist would be the product of the price the customers are willing to pay (that is function P) times the number of units that are sold at that price (y):

Therefore, the net profit (N) for the monopolist would be the difference between the Income and Cost functions (Income minus Cost):
