The sale price after both markdowns will be $336
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
The selling price of an item is $600. After 6 months of not selling, it is marked down by 30%
So, the marked down amount after 6 months
and the selling price after first 6 months will be:
After another 6 months of not selling , it is further marked down by 20%. So, the marked down amount now
Thus, the final selling price after all markdowns
A generic point on the graph of the curve has coordinates
The derivative gives us the slope of the tangent line at a given point:
Let k be a generic x-coordinate. The tangent line to the curve at this point will pass through and have slope
So, we can write its equation using the point-slope formula: a line with slope m passing through has equation
In this case, and
, so the equation becomes
We can rewrite the equation as follows:
We know that this function must give 0 when evaluated at x=0:
This equation has no real solution, so the problem looks impossible.
