Answer:

E = -2. The demand is going down by 2% per 1% increase in price at that price level.

The price that gives a maximum revenue is $22.5. The maximum revenue is $9112.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The overall demand formula: Q = aP + b

Q = 990 - 22P

<u>Demand elasticity:</u>

At P = $30, the Q = 990 - 22×30 = 330. a = \frac{dQ}{dP} = -22

The formula for demand elasticity: E = \frac{dQ}{dP}×\frac{P}{Q}

Demand elasticity at $30: E = -22 × \frac{30}{330} = -2

So, The demand will be going down by 2% if 1% increase in price.

<u>Revenue:</u>

R = P×Q = P×(990 - 22P) = -22P² - 990P

R' = -44P - 990. The revenue is maximum when R' = 0

⇔0 = -44P - 990 ⇔ P = $22.5

At the P = $22.5, the Q = 990 - 22×22.5 = 495.

The maximum revenue = $22.5×495 = $11,137.5

What is the slope of y=-1/2x+3
user100 [1]

Answer:

slope = - \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 3 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{1}{2}
