Let p= the price of a ticket
Let c= the cost to put on the show

Formula:
(profit) = (ticket price) * (number of people) - (cost to put on show)
We have two equations here:
500=120p-c
400=100p-c
Solve:
100=20p
⇒p=5
⇒400=100(5)-c
⇒400=500-c
⇒c=100

So the price of a ticket is $5, and the cost to put on the show is $100.

  • w is width

Derivative Notation

Implicit Differentiation

Differentiation with respect to time

Derivative Rule [Product Rule]:                                                                              \displaystyle \frac{d}{dx} [f(x)g(x)]=f'(x)g(x) + g'(x)f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<u />\displaystyle l = 10 \ meters<u />

<u />\displaystyle \frac{dl}{dt} = 4 \ m/day<u />

<u />\displaystyle w = 23 \ meters<u />

<u />\displaystyle \frac{dw}{dt} = 1 \ m/day<u />

<u />

<u>Step 2: Differentiate</u>

  1. [Area of Rectangle] Product Rule:                                                                 \displaystyle \frac{dA}{dt} = l\frac{dw}{dt} + w\frac{dl}{dt}

<u>Step 3: Solve</u>

  1. [Rate] Substitute in variables [Derivative]:                                                    \displaystyle \frac{dA}{dt} = (10 \ m)(1 \ m/day) + (23 \ m)(4 \ m/day)
  2. [Rate] Multiply:                                                                                                \displaystyle \frac{dA}{dt} = 10 \ m^2/day + 92 \ m^2/day
  3. [Rate] Add:                                                                                                      \displaystyle \frac{dA}{dt} = 102 \ m^2/day
