Zinaida [17]

Answer:

a) p(x) = 300 - 3

b) P(x) = -3 x² + 285 x

c) Price of per room per day  = $ 157.5

when Number of rooms occupied , x = 47.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - A motel owner observes that when a room is priced at $60 per day, all 80 rooms of the motel are occupied. For every $3 rise in the charge per room per day, one more room is vacant. Each occupied room costs an additional $15 per day to maintain.

To find - a) Find the demand function, expressing p, the price charged for each room per day, as a function of x, the number of rooms occupied.

             b) Find the profit function P(x).

             c) Find the price of per room per day the motel should charge in order to maximize its profit.

Proof -

a)

Let

(x, y) be the point

where x represents number of rooms occupied

and y represents price of room per day.

Now,

Given that,

a room is priced at $60 per day, all 80 rooms of the motel are occupied.

So, point becomes (80, 60)

And  given that For every $3 rise in the charge per room per day, one more room is vacant.

So, point becomes (79, 63)

Now, we have two points (80, 60), (79, 63)

Let us assume that,

p(x) be the price charged for each room per day

Now,

By using point - slope formula , we get

p -60 = \frac{(63 - 60}{(79 - 80)} (x - 80)

⇒p -60 = (-3)(x-80)

⇒p-60 = 240 -3 x

⇒p(x) = 240 + 60 -3 x

⇒p(x) = 300 - 3 x

b)

Given that,

Each occupied room costs an additional $15 per day to maintain.

Let C(x) be the cost function,

Then C(x) =15 x

now,

Revenue function,

R(x) =x*p

      = x*(300 -3 x )

      = 300 x - 3 x²

⇒R(x) = 300 x - 3 x²

Now,

We know

Profit function = Revenue function - Cost function

⇒P(x) = R(x)-C(x)

⇒P(x) = (300 x -3 x²) -15 x

⇒P(x) = -3 x² + 285 x

c)

P'(x) = -6 x +285

For Maximize profit , Put P'(x) = 0

⇒-6 x+ 285 =0

⇒6 x= 285

⇒x = \frac{285}{6}

⇒x= 47.5

∴ we get

Maximize profit is when price, p = 300 - 3x

                                                      = 300 -3(47.5)

                                                      = $157.5

⇒Price of per room per day  = $ 157.5

when Number of rooms occupied , x = 47.5

Julie has a jewlery box shaped like a cube. The volume of the jewlery box is v cubic inches. Write an
Stolb23 [73]

Answer: ∛v

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know volume is measured height x width x length, we know the equation we'd use here would be:

___ x ___ x ___ =  v in³

If this was area, we would have ___ x ___ = v in², and it would be easy to find each blank. You would just find the square root of "v", making your answer √v.

When you have 3 things multiplied by each other (that are exactly the same, which is the situation here since this is a cube), you will want to find ∛x (if x is our unknown variable). This means that we are finding ONE-THIRD of the number ... sort of. So if x was equal to 8, then ∛x = 2, because 2 x 2 x 2 = 8.

In our situation here, x = v, and since we don't know the actual number, we will keep it as a square root, so the answer to your question is ∛v.

I really hope I was able to explain easy enough, feel free to ask anything else!
