A manufacturer produces bolts of a fabric with a fixed width. The quantity q of this fabric (measured in yards) that is sold is a function of the selling price p (in dollars per yard), so we can write q = f(p). Then the total revenue earned with selling price p is R(p) = pf(p). A. What does it mean to say that f(20)= 10,000 and f firstderivative (20)= -350?
B. Assuming the values in part a, find R first derivative (20).

(A) the selling price is $20 per yards, and the expected yards to be sold is 10,000 yards

the derivative f'(20) is negative, which means the fabric producing company will sell 350 fewer yards when selling price is $20 per yard

(B) = R'(20) = $3000

∴the company will get extra $3000 revenue when selling price is $20 per yard

Step-by-step explanation:

A. given that

f(20)= 10,000

f'(20)= -350(first derivative)

the selling price is $20 per yards, and the expected yards to be sold is 10,000 yards

the derivative f'(20) is negative, which means the higher the price, it wil reduce the number of yards to be sold making it 350 fewer yards

(B) R(p) = p f(p)

f(20)= 10,000

f'(20)= -350(first derivative)

R(p) = p f(p)

differentiate with respect to p, using product rule

R'(p) = p f' (p) + f(p) (first derivative)

where p = 20

R'(20) = 20 f' (20) + f(20)

R'(20) = 20(-350) + 10,000

R'(20) = -7000 + 10,000

R'(20) = $3000

∴ the revenue is increasing by $3000 for every selling sold yard and increase in price per yard

what do you mean by fog

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
