Assignment:
Q1. Write a linear cost function for each situation. Identify all variable used. A parking garage charges 50 cents plus 35 cent per half-hour.
Q2. Find the cost function in each case. Marginal cost: $90; 150 items cost $16,000 to produce.
Q3. Supply and Demand: Let the supply and demand functions for butter pecan ice cream be given by p= S(q)=2/5q and p=D(q) = 100-2/5q where p is the price in dollars and q is the number of 10-gallon tubs
a). Graph these on the same axes
b) Find the equilibrium quantity and the equilibrium price.
