Let D(x) be the demand (in units) for a new product when the price is x dollars. D(5.25) = 800 D'(5.25) = −40 Formula for the revenue R(x) generated from the sale of the product when the price is x dollars is R(x) = x · D(x). Assume demand is equal to the number sold. 1. Calculate R'(x) when x = 5.25. R'(5.25) = $______ per dollar

Find the constant of proportionality. y is directly proportional to x. If x=30, then y=15.
Suppose that a company’s marginal revenue from the manufacture and sale of eggbeaters is dr/ dx = 2 - 2/(x + 1)2, where r is measured in thousands of dollars and x in thousands of units. How much money should the company expect from a pro-duction run of x = 3 thousand eggbeaters? To find out, integrate the marginal revenue from x = 0 to x = 3.
Suppose a tank initially contains 10 pounds of dissolved salt in 100 Gallons of water. At time t = 0, water containing 0.2 pounds of salt per gallon begins flowing in at a rate of 2 gallons per minute. At the same time, a drain opens allowing the perfectly- stirred mixture to also flow out at 2 gallons per minute. One hour later (t=60), what is the amount of salt in the tank, and what is the concentration of salt in the mixture?
A cultureinitially has No numberof bacteria. At t = 1, time in hour, the numberofbacteria is measured to be 1/2No.If the rate of growth is proportional to the numberof bacteria N(t) present at time t, determine the time necessary for the number ofbacteria to triple.
A tank initially holds 10 gal of fresh water. At t = 0, a brine solution containing ¼pounds of salt per gallon is poured into the tank at a rate of 2 gal/min, while the well-stirred mixture leaves the tank at the same rate. Find (a) the amount and (b) the concentration of salt in the tank after half an hour.
Under certain conditions, cane sugar with water is converted into dextrose at a rate which is proportional to the amount unconverted at any time t. If initially there was 75 grams of cane sugar with water and that 8 grams are converted during the first 30 minutes, find (a) the amount converted in 1.5 hours, in grams; (b) the time at which 99% of sugar cane with water had been converted to dextrose.
