Until recently, hamburgers at the city sports arena cost $ 2.50 each. The food concessionaire sold an average of 1750 hamburgers on game night. When the price was raised to $ 3.10 hamburger sales dropped off to an average of 1,450 per night. The? concessionaire's fixed costs were $1,903.00 per night and the variable cost was $1.44 per hamburger. Answer the following questions (A) through (F).(A) Assume that the relationship between price p and demand x is linear. Express p as a function of x and find the domain of this function. p=The domain of p is(Type a compound? inequality.)

  (A) p = -0.002x +6; 0 ≤ x ≤ 3000

  (B) R(x) = x(6 -0.002x); 0 ≤ x ≤ 3000

  (C) C(x) = 1.44x +1903

  (D) (550, 2695), (1730, 4394.20)

  (E) P(x) = -0.002x^2 +4.56x -1903

  (F) increasing at $2.16 per hamburger

Explanation:

(A) The two-point form of the equation for a line can be used.

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

The two points we have are ...

  (x, p) = {(1750, 2.50), (1450, 3.10)}

so the equation is ...

  p = (3.10 -2.50)/(1450 -1750)/(x -1750) +2.50

  p = 0.6/-300(x -1750) +2.50

  p = -0.002x +6

The domain of this function is where x and p are greater than 0. That will be for ...

  0 ≤ x ≤ 3000

__

(B) Revenue is the product of burgers sold (x) and their price (p).

  R(x) = xp

  R(x) = x(6 -0.002x)

The domain of R(x) is 0 ≤ x ≤ 3000. This is the same as the domain of p(x).

___

(C) The cost function is the sum of fixed costs and variable costs:

  C(x) = 1.44x +1903

__

(D) See the attachment for a graph of cost and revenue. The break-even points are (x, revenue) = (550, 2695), (1730, 4394.20).

__

(E) Profit is the difference between revenue and cost.

  P(x) = R(x) - C(x) = x(6 -0.002x) -(1.44x +1903)

  P(x) = -0.002x^2 +4.56x -1903

__

(F) The marginal profit is the derivative of the profit function:

  P'(x) = -0.004x +4.56

  P'(600) = -0.004(600) +4.56 = -2.40 +4.56 = 2.16

At a production level of 600, the profit is increasing at a rate of $2.16 per hamburger.
