We have the following data for Demand Price and Costs for our product. Quantity Demand Price 100 Costs 500 $35.35 $21.63 $17.25 $2347.67 $5040.00 $7481.67 300 1000 1500 $12.70 $12469.67 $10.26 $16196.00 We have reason to believe that the Demand Price is a power (exponential) function of some kind. Our Cost function is close to linear, but we expect, from some market analysis, that it is in fact quadratic. Approximate this data with a Demand Price function and a Cost function. Explain how confident you are; that is, how much error do you think is reasonable in this type of scenario?
