Question
Average Price of a Commodity The price of a certain commodity in dollars per unit at time $t$ (measured in weeks) is given by$$p=8+4 e^{-2 t}+t e^{-2 t}$$What is the average price of the commodity over the 4 -week period from $t=0$ to $t=4 ?$
Step 1
The price \( p \) as a function of time \( t \) is given by: \[ p(t) = 8 + 4e^{-2t} + te^{-2t} \] Show more…

Average Price of a Commodity The price of a certain commodity in dollars per unit at time t (measured in weeks) is given by p = 9 + 3e^(-2t) + te^(-2t). What is the average price (in dollars) of the commodity over the 4-week period from t = 0 to t = 4? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
The price of a certain commodity in dollars per unit at time $t$ (measured in weeks) is given by $$p=18-3 e^{-2 t}-6 e^{-t / 3}$$ What is the average price of the commodity over the 5 -week period from $(t=0)$ to $(t=5) ?$
