Question

The math department is selling a new streaming homework service. The selling price per subscription for x thousands of subscriptions to the service is defined by the function: p(x)=0.1x2-6x+180 In the context of this problem, what is the domain and range of the price function? State your answers in interval notation. Why do your answers for the previous problem make sense in a real world scenario? Write your answer in complete sentences. Find the price per subscription if 100 thousand subscriptions are purchased.

The given function is a company's price function, where x is the quantity (in thousands) that will be sold at price p dollars. p = 10 - 2ln(x) (a) Find the revenue function R(x). [Hint: Revenue is price times quantity, p * x.] (b) Find the quantity (in thousands) and price (in dollars) that will maximize revenue. (Round your quantity to one decimal place, and round your price to the nearest cent.) quantity thousand price $

a-write-the-information-given-as-a-piecewise-defined-function-and-state-the-domain-for-each-piece-by

a. write the information given as a piecewise-defined function, and state the domain for each piece by inspecting the graph. b. Give the range of each. Due to heavy advertising, initial sales of the Lynx Digital Camera grew very rapidly, but started to decline once the advertising blitz was over. During the advertising campaign, sales were modeled by the function $S(t)=-t^{2}+6 t,$ where $S(t)$ represents hundreds of sales in month $t .$ However, as Lynx Inc. had hoped, the new product secured a foothold in the market and sales leveled out at a steady 500 sales per month.

00:01 So this question says the price demand equation and the cost function for the product of table saws is given respectfully.
00:07 So we have x equals 12 ,000 minus 40p and c of x is going to be 70 ,000 plus 50x.
00:23 And x is the number of saws that can be sold at a price of p per saw.
00:29 And c of x is the total cost and dollars of producing x laws.
00:36 And this question is asking us to use this equation.
00:41 And it says, express the price p as a function of the demand x and find the domain of this function.
00:47 So what we're going to do is we're going to solve for p...
