1 SETION 4.7 OTIMIZTION ROLEMS 331 and Ris called te revenue function. Te derivative R of te revenue function is called te marginal revenue function and is te rate of cange of revenue wit respect to te numer of units sold. If x units are sold, ten te total profit is and is called te profit function. Te marginal profit function is, te derivative of te profit function. In Exercises 57 6 you are asked to use te marginal cost, revenue, and profit functions to minimize costs and maximize revenues and profits. v EXMLE 6 store as een selling 00 lu-ray disc players a week at $350 eac. market survey indicates tat for eac $10 reate offered to uyers, te numer of units sold will increase y 0 a week. Find te demand function and te revenue function. How large a reate sould te store offer to maximize its revenue? SOLUTION If x is te numer of lu-ray players sold per week, ten te weekly increase in sales is x 00. For eac increase of 0 units sold, te price is decreased y $10. So for 1 eac additional unit sold, te decrease in price will e 0 10 and te demand function is Te revenue function is x R x x p x x x R x xp x 450x 1 x Since R x 450 x, we see tat R x 0 wen x 450.
