3. A monopolist chooses output (x) to maximize profit (T) where r(x) = p(x)x-c(x) In this equation, p(x) denotes the price of x and c(x) is the cost of producing x. Since demand curves are downward sloping, we assume that p,(x) <0. In addition, we will assume that marginal cost is positive and non-decreasing; that is, c'(x) > 0 and c"(x) 2 0. Derive a condition on the demand curve such that marginal revenue is downward sloping. Derive the first...

Problem 1e. The slope
of the demand curve indicates that if the price of Fluff increases
by 20 cents, consumers will buy one less unit. Determine what
happens to profit if price is increased by calculating the new
profit level for Fluff when price is set 20 cents higher than the
profit-maximizing price.
