An airline sells all the tickets for a certain route at the same price. If it charges 200 dollars per ticket it sells 10,000 tickets. For every 15 dollars the ticket price is reduced, an extra thousand tickets are sold. This if the tickets are sold for 185 dollars each then 11,000 tickets sell. It costs the airline 100 dollars to fly a person. (a) Express the total profit P in terms of the number n of tickets sold. (b) Express the total profit P in terms of the price p of one ticket.

Answers

Answer 1

The function that gives the amount of profit at a given price and number

given are obtained from the relationship between the variables.

a) The profit in terms of the number of tickets sold, P = -0.015·n² + 250·n

(b) The profit in terms of ticket price, is P = -66.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]·p² + 3000·p + 2,333,333.[tex]\overline 3[/tex]

Reasons:

Number of tickets sold at x = $200, is y = 10,000 tickets

Number of extra tickets sold for every $15 price reduction = 1,000 tickets

Number of tickets sold at $185 = 11,000

The cost to fly a person = $100

(a) The rate of change, [tex]\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}[/tex], of the number of ticket sold wit price is given as

follows;

[tex]\dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} = \dfrac{11,000 - 10,000}{185 - 200 } = -66. \overline 6[/tex]

The equation in slope and intercept form is therefore;

n - 11,000 = -66.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]·(p - 185)

n = -66.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]·p + 12,333.[tex]\overline 3[/tex] + 11,000 =  -66.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]·p + 23,333.[tex]\overline 3[/tex]

Number of tickets sold, n = -66.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]·p + 23,333.[tex]\overline 3[/tex]

[tex]Price \ per \ ticket, \ p = \dfrac{23,333.\overline {3} - n}{66. \overline{6}}[/tex]

The revenue, R = n·x

Therefore;

[tex]R = \dfrac{23,333.\overline {3} \cdot n- n^2}{66. \overline{6}}[/tex]

The profit = Revenue - Cost

The cost = 100·n

[tex]Profit, P = \dfrac{23,333.\overline {3} \cdot n- n^2}{66. \overline{6}} - 100 \cdot n = -0.015 \cdot n^2 + 250 \cdot n[/tex]

Total profit, P = -0.015·n² + 250·n

(b) The total profit, P, in terms of the price p, for one ticket

Number of tickets sold, n = -66.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]·p + 23,333.[tex]\overline 3[/tex]

The revenue, R = n·p

∴ R = -66.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]·p² + 23,333.[tex]\overline 3[/tex]·p

Cost = 100·n

∴ Cost = 100·(-66.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]·p + 23,333.[tex]\overline 3[/tex])

Therefore, the profit is given as follows;

Profit = -66.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]·p² + 23,333.[tex]\overline 3[/tex]·p - (100·(-66.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]·p + 23,333.[tex]\overline 3[/tex]))

Therefore;

Total profit, P = -66.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]·p² + 3000·p + 2,333333.[tex]\overline 3[/tex]

Answer 2

We want to express the total profit in two different ways.

The answers are:

a) P(n) = n*[n - 23,333.3]*(-15/1,000) - n*100

b) P(p) =  n(p)*p - n(p)*100 = [ (-1,000/15)*p + 23,333.3]*(p - 100)

The given information is:

If the ticket price is $200, they sell 10,000 tickets.If the ticket price decreases $15, they sell 1,000 tickets more.It costs $100 to fly a person, then the cost of each ticket is $100.

a) We want to get the profit in terms of the number n of tickets sold.

The number of tickets sold depends on the price, we know that it is a linear relation like:

n(p) = a*p + b

where p is the price.

we know that:

n(200) = 10,000

n(185) = 11,000

If this is a linear relation, the slope is known:

a = -1,000/15$

Then the line is something like:

n(p) =  (-1,000/15)*p + b

We know that if k = 200, then n = 10,000

Replacing that we have:

n(200) = 10,000 =  (-1,000/15)*200 + b

               10,000 + (1,000/15)*200 = b = 23,333.3

Then the number of tickets sold as a function of the price is:

n(p) =  (-1,000/15)*p + 23,333.3

Then the revenue is given by the number of tickets sold times the price, this is:

r(n) = n*p

We can write k in terms of n as:

k = [n - 23,333.3]*(-15/1,000)

Then the revenue as a function of the number of tickets sold is:

r(n) = n*[n - 23,333.3]*(-15/1,000)

The profit is the difference between the revenue and the cost, then the profit function is:

P(n) = n*[n - 23,333.3]*(-15/1,000) - n*100

Where n*100 is the cost.

b) now we want to write the same equation, but this time as a function of the price.

now the revenue is:

r(p) = n*p = [ (-1,000/15)*p + 23,333.3]*p

Then the profit is:

P(p) =  n(p)*p - n(p)*100 = [ (-1,000/15)*p + 23,333.3]*(p - 100)

Sorry, I couldn't figure out the last one, it just takes a lot of trial and error and luck :(

You know that S times A is the digit N. Then, A squared plus whatever the first digit of the2 digit number XN is MA.

A cannot be five because if you were to do 5 times 5 it would be 25. A squared is 25 and the last digit is already A so added on to anything else the equation would be false. So the only considerable value for S would be one, but then A times S would be 5, but N is not A. I hope you get what I mean.

A cannot be 6 for the same reason (just change the 5 to six on my last pragraph).

If A were 7 then you'd have to find something to add to 49 to make it end in 7, which means adding 6. 7 times 9 is 63, so S could be 9. 79 times 7 is 573. That is the answer. A = 7, S = 9, M = 5, N = 3.

As for NINE - FOUR = FIVE, E - R is E so R must be 0.The only one digit number a number can be subtracted by to get itself is 0.

Now, N - U = V, or 1N - U = V

Let's say N is 3 and U is 6. V would be 7.

We've just took one from I. I - 1 - O = I. 1+O must be 10 or 0, but O must be positive, so O = 9. Let's say I is 5.

We just borrowed one form N. N-1 - F = F. N - 1 = 2 times F.

But we know that N is 3. 2 = 2 times F. F is 1.

Let's just make E = 8

My final answer is 3538 - 1960 = 1578

There are MANY other answers though.

N = 3, I = 5, E = 8, O = 9, U = 6, R = 0, V = 7.

What is an quadratic equation?

A quadratic equation is in the form:

y = ax² + bx + c

Let y represent the height after x seconds.

At point (0, 0):

0 = a(0)² + b(0) + c

c = 0

At (0.5, 20.5):

20.5 = a(0.5)² + b(0.5) +0

0.25a + 0.5b = 20.5

At point (2, 36.25):

30.41 = a(2)² + b(2) + 0

4a + 2b = 30.41

Hence:

a = -17.2, b = 49.6

Hence:

y = -17.2x² + 49.6x

At 5 seconds:

y = -17.2(5)² + 49.6(5) = -197

What is the average rate of change of the line whose equation is:


y−3=−12(x+4)?


PLEASE HELPPPP

Answers

Answer:

Rate of change = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

y − 3 = −12(x + 4)

Expanding, we have;

y - 3 = -12x - 48

y = -12x - 48 + 3

y = -12x - 45

Now, formula for rate of change is;

Rate of change = (y(x + h) - y)/h

y(x + h) is; y = -12(x + h) - 45

This gives;

Rate of change = (-12(x + h) - 45 + 12x + 45)/h

Rate of change = (-12x - 12h - 45 + 12x + 45)/h

Rate of change = -12h/h

Rate of change = -12

If mA = 130 + x and mB = 170 + x, what is the value of x? what are the functions of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum Help me please giving brainliest Breaking Even on PizzaSuppose the student organization you are apart of has decided to hold a pizza fund-raiser during finals week. Sure we have Cost + Markup = Selling Price, but this sounds more like Pizza + Finals = Success. Your club plans to purchase 50 pizzas and resell them in the student center. For your initial post, I'm hoping you'll get creative: tell us about your student group (and yes, you can make up one that you think you' be apart of).Next, choose a pizza store to purchase from. You can purchase from somewhere local, or you can choose a chain as well. Research their current promotions on pizzas and find the cost per pizza (you can decide what size of pizzas to purchase since specials will vary). It probably makes sense to explain why you made the choice you did. How much will it cost to purchase 50 pizzas?Lastly, calculate what you would need to charge per slice to break even. In other words, if you only wanted to sell pizza and not make a profit, what would you charge for each slice? For your first reply post, reply to your own post. Since this is a fund-raiser, what would you suggest charging for each slice and, based on this, what would the percent markup be? Also, what would the net profit be if you sold all 50 pizzas?For your second reply post, reply to someone else's post and decide if their cost per slice is too high. Would you pay that much for a slice of pizza? Suppose they only sold 40 pizzas. Will they still make a profit? Will they break even? If you think they should adjust the cost per slice, explain why.
