If the price of pizza is p, and the number of pizzas sold is q the pizza shop will observe the following relation 4p2+q2=324p^2+q^2 = 32. What price should the pizzas be sold at in order to maximize revenue (r), r = pq.
Law of Demand
A manufacturing company produces a variety of products, but prices them at $3 per unit. Every month, the company sells 25,000 units and for every $0.5 increase in price, the number of products sold decreases by 1,500. There is a flat maintenance cost of $100,000 for the factory, and each unit requires $1 to make. However, the Province of BC subsidizes the company $20,000 every month (i.e. the company gets $20,000 every month, no matter how many products they sell).
a) Find the linear demand equation of these products. Use pp for unit price and qq for monthly demand.
b) Find the monthly cost function C(q)C(q) as a function of qq .

Producing qq motherboards has a cost function of C(q)=4q2125+60q+112500.C(q)=\frac{4q^2}{125}+60q+112500. The price at which these motherboards can be sold is $120, when 10,000 units are sold. For every extra 1,000 units sold, the price of the motherboard drops by $8.
a) Find the linear demand of motherboards. Use pp for unit price, and qq for weekly demand.
b) Find the weekly revenue function R(q)R(q) as a function of qq .
Law of Demand
The Regno: Custom Millwork Co. manufactures and sells custom furniture. For desks, the monthly demand is 40 units at a price of $800. When the cost of the desk increases by $50, the number of desks sold decreases by 2. Assume that it costs $300 to produce each desk and that the fixed monthly cost is $20,000.
a) Find the linear demand equation for the Regno: Custom Millwork's desk. Use pp for the unit price and qq for the monthly demand.
b) Find the monthly revenue function R(q)R(q) as a function of qq .

The total cost of producing x pairs of shoes is C(x)=0.5x3+x2C\left(x\right)=0.5x^3+x^2
The total revenue of producing x pairs of shoes is R(x)=x4+0.5x3+2x2R(x)=x^4+0.5x^3+2x^2
a) Determine the average cost function and evaluate it at 4 pairs of shoes.

Q:\bf{Q:} A small manufacturer wholesales leather jackets to a number of specialty stores. The monthly demand from these stores for the jackets is described by the demand equation
p=400−80qp=400-80q
Here pp is the wholesale price, in dollars per jacket, and qq is the monthly demand, in thousands of jackets. Note that the demand equation makes no sense if q≥5q ≥ 5. The manufacturer's marginal cost function is given by the equation
