document.write( "Question 166260: Helen’s Health Foods usually sells 400 cans of ProPac Muscle Punch per week when the price is $5 per can. After experimenting with prices for some time, Helen has determined that the weekly demand can be found using the equation\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "d = 600 – 40 p\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "where d is the number of cans and p is the price per can.
\n" ); document.write( "a.) Will Helen sell more or less Muscle Punch if she raises her price from $5.00?
\n" ); document.write( "b.) What happens to her sales every time she raises her price by $1.00?
\n" ); document.write( "c.) Graph the equation.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a. d=600-40(5)=400 d=600-40(5.50)=380
\n" ); document.write( " as the price increases the the # of cans decrease
\n" ); document.write( "b. sales at $5 is 400(5)=2000
\n" ); document.write( " sales at $6 is 360(6)=2160
\n" ); document.write( " sales at $7 is 320(7)=2240
\n" ); document.write( " sales at $7.50 300(7.5)=2250
\n" ); document.write( " sales at $8 is 280(8)=2240
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " so sales rise on each $1 raise up to $7.50 then they begin to fall again.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c.I have no way to graph this
\n" ); document.write( "
