Question

A store uses the expression –2p + 50 to model the number of backpacks it sells per day, where the price, p, can be anywhere from $9 to $15. Which price gives the store the maximum amount of revenue, and what is the maximum revenue? (Revenue = price mc023-1.jpg number of backpacks.) $9.00 per backpack gives the maximum revenue; the maximum revenue is $32.00. $12.00 per backpack gives the maximum revenue; the maximum revenue is $312.00. $12.50 per backpack gives the maximum revenue; the maximum revenue is $312.50. $15.00 per backpack gives the maximum revenue; the maximum revenue is $20.00.

Answer 1

Revenue = price * number of backpacks
number of backpacks = -2p + 50

p = 9 ; -2(9) + 50 = -18 + 50 = 32
revenue = 9 * 32 = 288

p = 12 ; -2(12) + 50 = -24 + 50 = 26
revenue = 12 * 26 = 312

p = 12.50 ; -2(12.50) + 50 = -25 + 50 = 25
revenue = 12.50 * 25 = 312.50   GIVES THE MAXIMUM REVENUE

p = 15 ; -2(15) + 50 = -30 + 50 = 20
revenue = 15 * 20 = 300
