QUESTION 3 [10 MARKS] A bakery finds that the price they can sell cakes is given by the function p = 580 − 10x where x is the nu

Harman [31]

Answer:

(a)Revenue function, $R(x)=580x-x^2$

Marginal Revenue function, R'(x)=580-2x

(b)Fixed cost =900 .

Marginal Cost Function=300+50x

(c)Profit, $P(x)=-35x^2+280x-900$

(d)x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

Price Function $= 580 - 10x$

The revenue function

$R(x)=x\cdot (580-10x)\\R(x)=580x-x^2$

The marginal revenue function

$\dfrac{dR}{dx}= \dfrac{d}{dx}(R(x))=\dfrac{d}{dx}(580x-x^2)=580-2x\\R'(x)=580-2x$

Part B

(Fixed Cost)

The total cost function of the company is given by $c=(30+5x)^2$

We expand the expression

$(30+5x)^2=(30+5x)(30+5x)=900+300x+25x^2$

Therefore, the fixed cost is 900 .

Marginal Cost Function

If $c=900+300x+25x^2$

Marginal Cost Function, $\frac{dc}{dx}= (900+300x+25x^2)'=300+50x$

Part C

Profit Function

Profit=Revenue -Total cost

$580x-10x^2-(900+300x+25x^2)\\580x-10x^2-900-300x-25x^2\\$Profit,P(x)=-35x^2+280x-900$

Part D

To maximize profit, we find the derivative of the profit function, equate it to zero and solve for x.

$P(x)=-35x^2+280x-900\\P'(x)=-70x+280\\-70x+280=0\\-70x=-280\\$Divide both sides by -70\\x=4$

The number of cakes that maximizes profit is 4.

In a fruit basket containing apples and oranges,1/4 of the fruit are oranges.

Oxana [17]

None of these answers can be the answer okay so it should be 1/6
Therefore the answer is a.
To get this first you add 3+15=18
Next you divide it by 6, 18 divided by 6 =3
Therefore 1/6=3
I hope that this helped

Guys help me with the number 1 please

Damm [24]

4y-y is NOT equivalent to 4.
4 is multiplied by 'y', and then 'y' is subtracted from that equation. Even if y=1, your equation would look like 4x1-1=3.

Hope that made sense:)
