    gives the maximum revenue.

    IV. Income: xp( x) = 5.00 x − 0.002 x 2 , marginal income: 5.00 − 0.004 x ,

    Marginal cost: C ' ( x) = 1.10 .

    Revenue: Income – Cost: 5.00 x − 0.002 x 2 − ( 3.00 + 1.10 x )


    = −3.00 + 3.9 x − 0.002 x 2 .

    Marginal revenue: 3.9 − 0.004 x .

    Maximum revenue: x = 975 .

    VI.

    Volume: V = w2 x Objective equation.


    w = 16 − 2 x Constraint equation.
    V = (16 − 2 x ) x We substitute the expression for w (constraint
    2
    equation) in the expression for the volume
    (
    V = 256 − 64 x + 4 x 2 x ) (objective equation). That way, the expression
    for the volume depends on just one variable,
    V = 256 x − 64 x 2 + 4 x 3 x.
    V ' = 256 − 128 x + 12 x 2 We want to find the maximum of the function
    for the volume, so we find its derivative, and
    V '= 0 set it equal to zero.
    256 − 128 x + 12 x 2 = 0
    64 − 32 x + 3 x 2 = 0
    − ( − 32 ) ± ( 32) 2 − 4( 3)( 64) We can’t solve this equation using
    x= factorization, so we use the general formula
    2( 3) for second degree equations:
    32 ± 16 − b ± b 2 − 4ac .
    x= x=
    6 2a
    x1 = 8, x 2 ≈ 2.7.

    Finally, we choose x = 2.7 as our final answer, the other value (x = 8), is a minimum, because if
    we evaluate the second derivative of the volume ( V ' ' = −128 + 24 x ) with x = 8, we obtain a
    positive value, which means that the function is concave up at x = 8.
