Question 9

If $$p = 1000 + \frac{1000}{q} is $$the price-demand function, what is the revenue function $$R(q)$$?

Accepted Answer

$$R(q) = 1000q + 1000$$

Question 10

Given $$f(x, y) = 200 - 10x + 5y^2$, what is S_y(5$$, 4)$$ and its interpretation?

Accepted Answer

$$40$$,\ meaning\ sales\ increase\ by\ 40\ units\ for\ each\ additional\ thousand\ dollars\ spent\ on\ advertising$

Question 11

For the function $$f(x, y) = x^2$ y^3$ - 6x + 4y$$, what is the partial derivative $$f_x(x, y)$$?

Accepted Answer

$$2x y^3$ - 6$$

Question 12

A company’s cost function is $$C(x) = 80x^2$ + 3x + 1. $$What is the average cost function $$AC(x)$$?

Accepted Answer

$$AC(x) = 80x + 3 + \frac{1}{x}$$

Question 13

Given the price-demand function $$p = 60e$$^{-0.025q}$$, what is the revenue function R(q$$)$$?

Accepted Answer

$$R(q) = 60q e$$^{-0.025q}$$

Question 14

For the function $$f(x) = 2x^2$ - 5x + 7$$, what is the second derivative $$f''(x)$$?

Accepted Answer

$$f''(x) = 4$$
