The cost in dollars to produce X designer dog leashes is C(x)=4x+8 and the price demand function in dollars per leash is p(x)=116-4x find the revenue function R(x)

Respuesta :

Answer:

The Revenue function is 116x - 4x²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the Price function, p(x) = 116 - 4x,

Revenue function is given as

R(x) = x.p(x)

= x(116 - 4x)

= 116x - 4x²

...................................

We can even go ahead to determine what the maximum profit would be,

The profit function P(x) is the Revenue function minus the Cost function.

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = (116x - 4x²) - (4x + 8)

= 116x - 4x² - 4x - 8

= 112x - 4x² - 8

P(x) = -4x² + 112x - 8

The Maximum Profit is determined using the value of x at

dP/dx = 0

dP/dx is the first derivative of P(x) with respect to x.

dP/dx = -8x + 112

Max P: -8x + 112 = 0

x = -112/-8 = 14

At dP/dx = 0, the value of x is 14.

Using this in P(x), we obtain the maximum profit

P(14) = -4(14²) + 112(14) - 8

= 776

the expression for revenue function R(x) = 116x-4x²

what is a revenue function?

Revenue function is the product of the number of units and the demand price per unit.

it is given that,

cost to produce 'x' designer leashes = 4x+8

price demand function per leash  = 116-4x

as we know,

revenue function = total number of units* demand function

revenue function = x(116-4x)

revenue function = 116x-4x²

hence, revenue function R(x) = 116x-4x²
