Step 1
The formula for elasticity of demand is: E = (% change in quantity demanded) / (% change in price) Since the demand function given is in terms of price (P), we need to find the derivative of the demand function with respect to price (P) to get the quantity Show more…

For the following demand function, find a. E, and b. the values of p (if any) at which total revenue is maximized. q = 35,100 - 8p^2 a. Determine the elasticity of demand, E. E = (dq/dp) * (p/q) b. Determine the value of p that maximizes the revenue. Select the correct choice below; and if necessary, fill in the answer box within your choice. A Total revenue is maximized at about p (Round to the nearest whole number as needed) B No values of p maximize total revenue.
