You have been hired as a marketing consultant to Johannesburg Burger Supply, Inc., and you wish to come up with a unit price for

its hamburgers in order to maximize its weekly revenue. To make life as simple as possible, you assume that the demand equation for Johannesburg hamburgers is linear. (a) Your market studies reveal the following sales figures: When the price is set at $2.00 per hamburger, the sales amount to 6000 per week, but when the price is set at $4.00 per hamburger, the sales drop to zero. Use these data to find the linear demand function q(p), where p is the price per hamburger and q is the number of hamburgers they sell at that price per week.

Answer:

q(p)= -3000p+12000

Step-by-step explanation:

For the function to be linear,

q(p)= mp + c

where

q(p): number of hamburgers sold

p: price per hamburger

m: gradient of the function

c: constant of the function

q(p)=6000 when p=2

6000=2m+c .................... equation I

0=4m+c

c=-4m........................ equation II

Substitute value of c in equation I

6000=2m-4m

m= -3000

c=12000

q(p)= -3000p+12000

Vijay has an annual salary of 47,000, and his company pays him twice a month. What is the gross income in each paycheck that Vij
leonid [27]
Alright, so he has an <em>annual </em>salary of 47,000 dollars. Which means that he is paid 47,000 dollars in 12 months. You'll first have to calculate the pay Vijay receives <em>each month</em>, which is \frac{47,000}{12 months}, or about $3,916.67 (I'll round up to 3917 for simplicity). 

Now, he gets paid twice a month. So each paycheck is half of $3917. 3917 x (1/2) = $1958.50. 

So each paycheck should be $1958.50 (this is a rounded figure).

Miyoko's goal is to earn more than \$950$950dollar sign, 950 this week. She earns \$250$250dollar sign, 250 for every day she wo
GrogVix [38]

$250 c+ $ 180 g > $ 950

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

As a cryptographer (c), Miyoko earns per day = $ 250

As a geologist (g) , Miyoko earns per day = $ 180

So the equation comes to be $250 c+ $ 180 g = $ 950

The equation can be rewritten to find c as, (950-180 g) / 250

The equation can be rewritten to find g as, (950 - 250 c) / 180

Plugin different values of c and g in the above 2 equations, we can find that ,

To achieve the goal, Miyoko requires to be a geologist for 3 days and crpytographist for 2 days.
