Answer:

  • r = 12.5p(32 -p)
  • $16 per ticket
  • $3200 maximum revenue

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of tickets sold (q) at some price p is apparently ...

  q = 150 + 25(20 -p)/2 = 150 +250 -12.5p

  q = 12.5(32 -p)

The revenue is the product of the price and the number of tickets sold:

  r = pq

  r = 12.5p(32 -p) . . . . revenue equation

__

The maximum of revenue will be on the line of symmetry of this quadratic function, which is halfway between the zeros at p=0 and p=32. Revenue will be maximized when ...

  p = (0 +32)/2 = 16

The theater should charge $16 per ticket.

__

Maximum revenue will be found by using the above revenue function with p=16.

  r = 12.5(16)(32 -16) = $3200 . . . . maximum revenue

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The number of tickets sold at $16 will be ...

  q = 12.5(32 -16) = 200

It might also be noted that if there are variable costs involved, maximum revenue may not correspond to maximum profit.

150 - x = 87 what does x equal here ?
Ainat [17]

Answer:

x=63

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Subtract by 150 from both sides of equation.</em>

<em>150-x-150=87-150</em>

<em>Simplify.</em>

<em>87-150=-63</em>

<em>-x=-63</em>

<em>Divide by -1 from both sides of equation.</em>

<em>-x/1=-63/-1</em>

<em>Simplify, to find the answer.</em>

<em>-63/-1=63</em>

<em>x=63 is the correct answer.</em>

<em>I hope this helps you, and have a wonderful day!</em>

Find the volume of this object.
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

408 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find the volume of each object individually. You first find the volume of the sphere, so you input the radius, which is 3, into the equation which comes out to be 108 cm^3. You then have to find the volume of the cylinder, and since you have the diameter of the cylinder, and you need the radius, and the radius is half of the diameter, you would input 5 into the equation as the radius, since half of 10 is 5. That comes out to be 300 cm^3, so then you add the two volumes together, which is 408 cm^3
