The quantity demanded x for a product is inversely proportional to the cube of the price p for

Harrizon [31]

X = k/p^3
125 = k/10^3 = k/1000
1000 x 125 = k
k = 125000

x = 125000/p^3

The profit is given by G = px - (125 + 2x) = p(125000/p^3) - 125 - 2(125000/p^3) = 125000/p^2 - 250000/p^3 - 125
For maximum profit:
dG/dp = 0
dG/dp = -250000/p^3 + 750000/p^4 = 0
750000 - 250000p = 0
p = 750000/250000 = 3

Therefore the price that will yeaild maximum profit is $3.

Answer:

$x=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

$~~~~~x = \dfrac{1}{2 - \dfrac 1{2-\dfrac{1}{2-x}}}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{1}{2 - \dfrac 1{\dfrac{4-2x-1}{2-x}}}\\\\\\\implies x= \dfrac{1}{2 - \dfrac{2-x}{3-2x}}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{1}{\dfrac{6-4x-2+x}{3-2x}}\\\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{3-2x}{4-3x}\\\\\\\implies 4x -3x^2 = 3-2x\\\\\\\implies 3x^2 -4x +3-2x = 0\\\\\\\implies 3x^2 -6x +3 = 0\\\\\\\implies 3(x^2 -2x +1) =0\\\\\\\implies x^2 -2x +1 = 0\\\\\\\implies (x-1)^2 = 0\\\\\\\implies x -1 = 0\\\\\\\implies x = 1$
