9 3 Math 115 Off-Line Homework Section 4.2 WebAssign Section 4.2 #11 (ebook Section 4.2#17) Assume the demand equation for tuna in a small coastal town is given by p = 20,000 q 1.5 when 200 q 800 where p is the price (in dollars) per pound of tuna, and q is the weight (in pounds) of tuna that can be sold at the price p in one month. a. Calculate the price that the town's fishery should charge for tuna in order to produce a demand of 400 pounds of tuna per month. b. Find the monthly revenue R as a function of he number of pounds of tuna q. c. Find the marginal revenue function. d. Calculate the revenue and marginal revenue at a demand level of 400 pounds per month and interpret the result. e. If the town fishery's monthly tuna catch amounted to 400 pounds of tuna, and the price is at the level in part (a), would you recommend that the fishery raise or lower the price of tuna in order to increase its revenue? Hint: Since R'(400) =, the revenue is increasing / decreasing when the demand is for 400 pounds of tuna. So to increase revenue, you should make demand higher than 400 / lower than 400. What should you do to the price to make that happen? Revenue (dollars) Quantity of Tuna (pounds)
