Answer:
a because a variable cannot be a variable
A) Demand function
price (x) demand (D(x))
4 540
3.50 810
D - 540 810 - 540
----------- = -----------------
x - 4 3.50 - 4
D - 540
----------- = - 540
x - 4
D - 540 = - 540(x - 4)
D = -540x + 2160 + 540
D = 2700 - 540x
D(x) = 2700 - 540x
Revenue function, R(x)
R(x) = price * demand = x * D(x)
R(x) = x* (2700 - 540x) = 2700x - 540x^2
b) Profit, P(x)
profit = revenue - cost
P(x) = R(x) - 30
P(x) = [2700x - 540x^2] - 30
P(x) = 2700x - 540x^2 - 30
Largest possible profit => vertex of the parabola
vertex of 2700x - 540x^2 - 30
When you calculate the vertex you find x = 5 /2
=> P(x) = 3345
Answer: you should charge a log-on fee of $2.5 to have the largest profit, which is $3345.

Hey there! :)
Answer:
y = 11.
Step-by-step explanation:
Set both of the equations equal:
5x - 9 = x² - 3x + 7
Rearrange the equation:
0 = x² - 3x - 5x + 9 + 7
Combine like terms:
0 = x² - 8x + 16
Factor:
0 = (x -4)²
Solve for x:
0 = x - 4
x = 4.
Plug this into an equation to solve for 'y':
y = 5(4) - 9
y = 20 - 9
y = 11.
