Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 1 - x.....so sub 1 - x in for y back into the other equation and solve for x
5x + 4y = 1
5x + 4(1 - x) = 1
5x + 4 - 4x = 1
x + 4 = 1
x = 1 - 4
x = -3
y = 1 - x
y = 1 - (-3)
y = 1 + 3
y = 4
solution : x = -3 and y = 4 or (-3,4)
Answer:
$3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
p = 8 - ln(x) when 5 < x < 500
where;
x = The total number of dogs sold
Then;
The total revenue = x * p
R = x(8 - ln(x))
R = 8x - xln(x)
The Company thus pays 1 dollar per dog
i.e.
The total cost C = 1 * x = x
Then: Profit = R - C
P = 8x - xln(x) - x
P = 7x - xln(x)
Differentiating P in respect to x
dP/dx = 7 - d/dx(xln(x))
dP/dx = 7 - x*d/dx(ln(x)) - ln(x)*d/dx(x)
dP/dx = 7 - x(1/x) - ln(x)
dP/dx = 6 - ln(x)
Since this must be maximized, dP/dx is set to be equal to 0
6 - ln(x) = 0
ln(x) = 6
x = e^6
Now, p = 8 - ln(x)
Plug in the value of x :
p = 8 - ln(e^5)
p = 8 - 5
p = 3
Therefore, each dog must be priced at $3 to maximize the profit.
The answer you want is going to be A.
