Answer:

Profit maximising price = 48

Explanation:

Total Cost : C (x) = 8x + 3

Demand Curve : p (x) = 88 − 2x

Total Revenue = p (x). x  =  x (88 - 2x) = 88x - 2x^2

Profit maximisation is where Marginal Cost (MC) = Marginal Revenue (MR)

MC = d TC / d Q  =   d (8x + 3) / d x = 8

MR = d TR / d Q = d (88x - 2x^2) / d x = 88 - 4x

Equating MR & MC ,

88 - 4x = 8  , 88 - 8 = 4x

x = 80 / 4 , x = 20

Putting value in demand curve,

p = 88 - 2x = 88 - 2 (20) = 88 - 40

p = 48

Delicious77 [7]

I believe the answer is: by informing readers of the education options being described

By putting the phrase  "After high schools" ,  readers would know that the information that being put below the phrase would include the set of options/paths that can be done after graduation. In most career planning forms, it would contain information regarding college, scholarships, and the type of careers that can be taken with current high school diploma.

amid [387]

Answer: $80

Explanation:

Since the fixed costs are $180,000 and variable costs are $540,000, then the total cost will be:

= Fixed cost + Variable cost

= $180000 + 540000

= $720000

Since there are 9000 units, then the unit sales price will be:

= $720000 / 9000

= $80

The unit sales price is $80
