Find the quantity q that maximizes profit if the total revenue, R(q), and total cost, C(q) are given in dollars by R(q)=3q−0.002
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

The value of q that maximize the profit is q=200 units

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The profit is equal to the revenue minus the cost

we have

R(q)=3q-0.002q^{2} ---> the revenue

C(q)=200+2.2q ---> the cost

The profit  P(q) is equal to

P(q)=R(q)-C(q)

substitute the given values

P(q)=(3q-0.002q^{2})-(200+2.2q)

P(q)=3q-0.002q^{2}-200-2.2q

P(q)=-0.002q^{2}+0.8q-200

This is a vertical parabola open downward (because the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex represent a maximum

The x-coordinate of the vertex represent the value of q that maximize the profit

The y-coordinate of the vertex represent the maximum profit

using a graphing tool

Graph the quadratic equation

The vertex is the point (200,-120)

see the attached figure

therefore

The value of q that maximize the profit is q=200 units

An Adult ticket at an amusement park costs $24.95 and a child's ticket costs $15.95. A group of 10 people paid $186.50 to enter
leva [86]

Answer:

There were 3 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Derive the first expression

a+c=10...equation 1

where;

a=number of adults

c=number of children

And total number of people=10

Step 2: Derive the second expression;

Total cost of tickets=(price per child ticket×number of children)+(price per adult ticket×number of adults)

where;

Total cost of tickets=$186.50

price per child ticket=$15.95

price per adult ticket=$24.95

number of children=c

number of adults=a

replacing;

(15.95×c)+(24.95×a)=186.5

24.95 a+15.95 c=186.5....equation 2

Step 3: Combine equation 1 and 2 and solve simultaneously

24.95 a+15.95 c=186.5

-

24.95(a+c=10)

(24.95 a-24.95 a)+(15.95 c-24.95 c)=186.5-(24.95×10)

-9 c=-63

c=-63/-9

c=7

replace the value for c in equation 1

a+c=10

a+7=10

a=10-7

a=3

There were 3 adults
