3) Company produces very unusual CD's for which the variable cost is $ 9 per CD and the fixed costs are $ 30000. They will sell the CD's for $ 70 each. Let x be the number of CD's produced.
Write the total cost C as a function of the number of CD's produced.
C=$_______________.

 

Write the total revenue R as a function of the number of CD's produced.
R=$ _____________________.

 

Write the total profit P as a function of the number of CD's produced.
P=$____________________.

 

Find the number of CD's which must be produced to break even.
The number of CD's which must be produced to break even is ______________.

 

4) A baseball team plays in a stadium that holds 62000 spectators. With the ticket price at $11 the average attendance has been 27000. When the price dropped to $10, the average attendance rose to 31000.

C(x)=30000+9x

 

Revenue Function: 

R(x)=70x

 

Profit= Revenue-Cost

P(x)=61x-30000

 

Break even if Cost=Revenue

x=491.80 round off to 492 CDs to break even

 

4. D(x)=27000+4000x

 

Step-by-step explanation

3. Cost Function:

C(x)=Fixed Cost + Variable cost

C(x)=30000+9x

 

Revenue Function: 

R(x)=70x

 

Profit= Revenue-Cost

P(x)=70x-(30000+9x)

P(x)=70x-30000-9x

P(x=61x-30000

 

Break even if Cost=Revenue

C(x)=R(x)

30000+9x=70x

30000=61x

x=491.80 round off to 492 CDs to break even

 

4. Find the slope or rate of change: 

Two points are: (11,27000),(10,31000)

Use q=a-bx

31000=a-b(10)

27000=a-b(11)

Subtract 

4000=b

a=71000

 

Price is 11-x

D(x)=71000-4000(11-x)

D(x)=27000+4000x
