Question 168569: Hello,
I have solved this question and compared to another student, and we had different answeres. I've done it again, and got the same answer as before. Could you please confirm that it is correct, or help me solve it corectly? Thank you in advance.
[(12x^3)/5)] / [(4x^2)/(10(y+3)]
= [(12x^3)/5y] x [(10(y+3))/(4x^2)]
= [(12x^3)/5y] x [(10y+30)/(4x^2)]
= [3x(10y+30)] / 5y
= [(30xy+90x)] / 5y
= [(6xy+18x)] / y

Question 168341: Demand for pools. Tropical Pools sells an aboveground
model for p dollars each. The monthly revenue for this
model is given by the formula
R(p)= -0.08p2 + 300p.
Revenue is the product of the price p and the demand
(quantity sold).
a) Factor out the price on the right-hand side of the
formula.
b) Write a formula D(p) for the monthly demand.
c) Find D(3000).
d) Use the accompanying graph to estimate the price at
which the revenue is maximized. Approximately how
many pools will be sold monthly at this price?
