Question
use linear functions. The ABC Car Rental uses the function f (x) = 100 for any daily use of a car up to and including 200 miles. For driving more than 200 miles per day, ABC uses the function g(x) = 100 + 0.25(x - 200) to determine the charges. How much would ABC charge for daily driving of 150 miles? of 230 miles? of 360 miles? of 430 miles?

Let d=r(p) give the average number of daily downloads of a song as a function of the price of the song (in cents). Let p0 be the price currently being charged for the song (in cents).What does the statement p0⋅r(p0) tell you about the number of downloads from the store? The average daily revenue of the music store if the current price is doubled. The total number of times the song is downloaded at the current price. The average revenue earned per download at the current price. The average daily revenue of the music store from selling the song at the current price. The total revenue of the music store when p0 songs are downloaded in a day.arrow_forwardA farmer wants to fence an area of 24 million square feet in a rectangular field and then divide it in half with a fence parallel to one of the sides of the rectangle. Let y represent the length (in feet) of a side perpendicular to the dividing fence, and let x represent the length (in feet) of a side parallel to the dividing fence. Let F represent the length of fencing in feet. Write an equation that represents F in terms of the variable x. F(x) = Find the derivative F'(x). F'(x) = Find the critical numbers of the function.
