When a wholesaler sold a product at $50 per unit, sales were 184 units per week. After a price increase of $5, however, the aver

age number of units sold dropped to 164 per week. Assuming that the demand function is linear, what price per unit will yield a maximum total revenue?

Answer:

$48 per unit

Step-by-step explanation:

Increasing the price by $5 reduces demand by 20 units, so the slope of the curve is -4 units per dollar. This lets us write a demand equation as ...

q = -4(p -50) +184

q = -4p + 384

q = 4(96 -p)

The revenue is the product of price and demand:

r = pq = 4p(96 -p)

This is the equation of a quadratic curve that opens downward and has zeros at p=0 and p=96. The vertex (maximum) will be halfway between the zeros, at ...

p = (0+96)/2 = 48

A price of $48 per unit will yield a maximum total revenue.

A is the point (-2, 0) and B is the point (0, 4).Find the equation of the straight line joining A and B.
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

y = 2*x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a linear function can be written as:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We know that if this line passes through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) the slope can be written as:

a = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

So, here we know that our line must pass through the points (-2,0) and (0, 4)

Then the slope of this line is:

a = (4 - 0)/(0 - (-2))

a = 4/2 = 2

Then our line is something like:

y = 2*x + b

Now, to find the value of b we can use one of these two points, for example if we use the point (-2, 0), we know that, when x = -2, we must have y = 0.

0 = 2*(-2) + b

0 = -4 + b

4 = b

Then the equation for our line is:

y = 2*x + 4
