Answer:

75 $

Step-by-step explanation:

According to problem statement p(300) = 600

And we know that with a rebate of 40 $, numbers of units sold will increase by 80 then if x is number of units sold, the increase in units is

(  x  - 300 )  , and the price decrease

(1/80)*40  =  0,5

Then the demand function is:

D(x)  =  600  - 0,5* ( x - 300 )  (1)

And revenue function is:

R(x) =  x * (D(x)   ⇒   R(x) =  x* [  600  - 0,5* ( x - 300 )]

R(x) = 600*x  - 0,5*x * ( x - 300 )

R(x) = 600*x - 0,5*x² - 150*x

R(x) = 450*x  - (1/2)*x²

Now taking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get

R´(x) =  450  - x

R´(x) =  0       ⇒   450  - x = 0

x = 450 units

We can observe that for   0 < x  < 450  R(x) > 0 then R(x) has a maximum for x = 450

Plugging this value in demand equation, we get the rebate for maximize revenue

D(450)  =  600  - 0,5* ( x - 300 )

D(450)  =  600 - 225 + 150

D(450)  =

D(450)  =  600 - 0,5*( 150)

D(450)  =  600 - 75

D(450)  = 525

And the rebate must be

600 - 525  = 75 $

Answer:

1. Mode = 7

2. Range = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The following set of data were obtained from the question:

4, 6, 5, 9, 3, 2, 7, 7, 1, 8

Mode =?

Range =?

1. Determination of the mode of the data.

Mode is simply defined as the mark (score) with the highest frequency. Thus we can obtain the mode as follow:

Scores >>>>>>> Frequency

4 >>>>>>>>>>>> 1

6 >>>>>>>>>>>> 1

5 >>>>>>>>>>>> 1

9 >>>>>>>>>>>> 1

3 >>>>>>>>>>>> 1

2 >>>>>>>>>>>> 1

7 >>>>>>>>>>>> 2

1 >>>>>>>>>>>> 1

8 >>>>>>>>>>>> 1

From the above illustration, we can see that the mark 7 has the highest frequency. Therefore, 7 is the mode of the data .

2. Determination of the range of the data.

Range of a given data is simply obtained by calculating the difference between the highest and the lowest score. The range can be obtained as follow:

Highest score = 9

Lowest score = 1

Range = Highest – Lowest

Range = 9 – 1

Range = 8
