A company produces a specific good for which the revenue function in terms of the produced amount q
is given by the equation
TR(q) = √√4q² 0.25q5.
a) Find the equation of the inverse demand function p(q) and find its domain.
b) Use the result from a) to find an explicit function equation for the demand function q (p) and find
its domain and range.
The cost function C for this good in terms of the produced amount can be described by the equation
C(q) =
6q+8
9+8
c) For which amounts of q will the company make a profit? To this end, solve a proper inequality.
You may use the graphical calculator to find zeros of a function if needed.
