The trend line estimates that the price was $432 in November 2007 and $80 in September 2011. (That is an interval of 46 months.)
meriva

Answer:

slope = -7.65 per month

Explanation:

given data

2007 price p1 = $432

2011 price p2 = $80

time t2  = 46 months

solution

we consider here starting time t1 =  0 when price $432

so here slope will be

slope = \frac{p2-p1}{t2-t1}    .....................1

put here value and we will get  

slope = \frac{80-432}{46-0}  

slope = -7.65 per month

A car rental agency rents 180 cars per day at a rate of 30 dollars per day. For each 1 dollar increase in the daily rate, 5 fewe
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Rate = $33

Maximum Income = $5445

Explanation:

Let x be the amount of increase in rental to achieve maximum profit.

So, Rate = (30+x)

When rate increase by x, the quantity decreases by (180 -5x).

Income = (30+x) * (180 - 5x)

Income = 5400 - 150x + 180x - 5x²

Income = -5x² + 30x + 5400

The income will be maximized when derivative of Income is zero.

Taking derivative,

  • dI/dx = 2 * -5x + 1 * 30x° + 0
  • -10x + 30 = 0
  • -10x = -30
  • x = -30 / -10
  • x = 3

The rate at which cars should be rented to earn maximum income is 30 + 3 = $33 per day per car.

Maximum Income will be,

Rate = 33

Quantity = 180 - 5(3) = 165 cars

Max Income = 33 * 165 = $5445

inysia [295]

Answer:

Option A. $20

Explanation:

Marginal cost be MC, marginal revenue be MR and . We know that

MR = ∆TR ÷ ∆Q

or

MR = (P∆Q+Q∆P) ÷ ∆Q

Here,

P is Profit-maximizing price

or

MR = (P∆Q ÷ ∆Q) + (Q∆P ÷ ∆Q)

or

MR = P + (Q∆P ÷ ∆Q)

we can also write the above equation as

MR = P + P(\frac{Q}{P})(\frac{\Delta P}{\Delta Q})

also,

Price elasticity of demand PED =  (\frac{Q}{P})(\frac{\Delta P}{\Delta Q})

or

MR = P + [ P ÷ (PED) ]

We know MR = MC

Therefore,

MC = P +  [ P ÷ (PED) ]

(P − MC) ÷ P = −1 ÷ PED

Substituting the values provided in the question

MC = $10

PED = -2

we get

P = [ PED ÷ (1 + PED)] × MC

P = ( -2 ÷ -1) × 10

or

P =$20

hence,

Option A. $20
