Answer:
A larger percentage of people in New York prefer coffee
A) Demand function
price (x) demand (D(x))
4 540
3.50 810
D - 540 810 - 540
----------- = -----------------
x - 4 3.50 - 4
D - 540
----------- = - 540
x - 4
D - 540 = - 540(x - 4)
D = -540x + 2160 + 540
D = 2700 - 540x
D(x) = 2700 - 540x
Revenue function, R(x)
R(x) = price * demand = x * D(x)
R(x) = x* (2700 - 540x) = 2700x - 540x^2
b) Profit, P(x)
profit = revenue - cost
P(x) = R(x) - 30
P(x) = [2700x - 540x^2] - 30
P(x) = 2700x - 540x^2 - 30
Largest possible profit => vertex of the parabola
vertex of 2700x - 540x^2 - 30
When you calculate the vertex you find x = 5 /2
=> P(x) = 3345
Answer: you should charge a log-on fee of $2.5 to have the largest profit, which is $3345.
Answer:
$1236.25
Step-by-step explanation:
We can convert the percentage to 0.075 to make it easier. Then, multiply 1150 by 1.075 to get 1236.25. We add the one because we need to include the initial $1150.
Answer:
6.51 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the sphere causes the water level in the cylindrical container to rise and thus increase by its own volume, the volume of the sphere is V = 4πr³/3 where r = radius of sphere. The volume rise of the container is thus V' = πR²h where R = radius of base of cylinder = 7 cm and h = height of water level = 7.5 cm.
Since V = V',
4πr³/3 = πR²h
dividing through by π, we have
4r³/3 = R²h
multiplying both sides by 3/4, we have
r³ = 3R²h/4
taking cube-root of both sides, we have
r = ∛(3R²h/4)
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
r = ∛(3(7 cm)² × 7.5 cm/4)
r = ∛(3 × 49 cm² × 7.5 cm/4)
r = ∛(1102.5cm³/4)
r = ∛(275.625 cm³)
r = 6.508 cm
r ≅ 6.51 cm to 2 decimal places
