2) The function P(n) = -n3 + 6n2 + 81n + 130 gives the profit, in...
4) The profit that a company earns in dollars is given by the function P(q) = -2q2 + 100q - 300 where q is the number of items that the company sells IN THOUSDANDS. Suppose that this company is ONLY capable of producing and selling 10 thousand items or fewer. (a) (4 points) Based on this mathematical model, what are the number of items this company needs to sell in order to break even? ROUND YOUR VALUE to the second...
2. Consider the following four consumers (C1,C2,C3,C4) with the following utility functions: Consumer Utility Function C1 u(x,y) = 2x+2y C2 u(x,y) = x^3/4y^1/4 C3 u(x,y) = min(x,y) C4 u(x,y) = min(4x,3y) On the appropriate graph, draw each consumer’s indifference curves through the following points: (2,2), (4,4), (6,6) and (8,8), AND label the utility level of each curve. Hint: Each grid should have 4 curves on it representing the same preferences but with different utility levels. 3. In the following parts,...
