A company Inc. finds that it costs $200 to produce each motorized scooter and that the forced costs are $1,000 per day yielding the cost function C(x) = 200x + 1,000 The price is given by p=600 - 5x, where p is the price in dollars at which exactly x scooters will be sold. Find the quantity of scooters that the company Inc. should produce and the price it should charge to maximize profit. Find the maximum profit How many...
its in hours 2. A manufacturer of vacuum cleaners produces three models of canister-style vacuum cleaners-the X-100, X-200, and X-300-on a production line with three stations-motor assembly, final assembly, and test. The line is highly automated and is run by three operators, one for each station. Data on production times, material cost, sales price, and bounds on demand are given in the following tables: Product Material Cost ($/Unit) Price $/Unit) Minimum Demand Maximum Demand (Units per Month) (Units per Month)...

The weekly demand function for x units of a product sold by only one firm is p = 600 – 3x dollars, and the average cost of production and sale is 7 = 400 + 2x dollars. (a) Find the quantity that will maximize profit. units (b) Find the selling price at this optimal quantity. per unit (c) What is the maximum profit?
14. Suppose that when the price of a certain commodity is p dollars per unit, then x hundred units will be purchased by consumers, where = -0.05 x + 38 The cost of producing x hundred units is hundred dollars is C(x) = 0.02x2 + 3x + 574.77 hundred dollars a. Express the profit P obtained from the sale of x hundred units as a function of x. Sketch the graph of the profit function. b. Use the profit curve...
Problem 1: An ice cream shop finds that its weekly profit P (measured in dollars) as a function of the price x (measured in dollars) it charges per ice cream cone is given by the function k, defined by kx)-125x2 +670x 125 where P k(x). a) Determine the maximum weekly profit and the price of an ice cream cone that produces that maximum profit b) The cost of the ice cream cone is too low then the ice cream shop...
The demand x for a web camera is 35,000 units per month when the price is $20 and 40,000 units when the price is $15. The initial investment is $275,000 and the cost per unit is $14. Assume that the demand is a linear function of the price. Find the profit P, in dollars, as a function of x. P(x) = Using the differential approximate the change in profit for a one-unit increase in sales when x = 22,000. dP...
