Economists use demand functions to describe how much of a commodity can be sold at varying prices. For example, the demand function \(D(p)=500-10 p\) says that at a price of \(p=10,\) a quantity of \(D(10)=400\) units of the commodity can be sold. The elasticity \(E=\frac{d D}{d p} \frac{p}{D}\) of the demand gives the approximate percent change in the demand for every \(1 \%\) change in the price. a. Compute the elasticity of the demand function \(D(p)=500-10 p\) b. If the price is \(\$ 12\) and increases by \(4.5 \%,\) what is the approximate percent change in the demand? c. Show that for the linear demand function \(D(p)=a-b p\) where \(a\) and \(b\) are positive real numbers, the elasticity is a decreasing function, for \(p \geq 0\) and \(p \neq a / b\) d. Show that the demand function \(D(p)=a / p^{b}\), where \(a\) and \(b\) are positive real numbers, has a constant elasticity for all positive prices.
Given the following velocity functions of an object moving along a line, find the position function with the given initial position. Then graph both the velocity and position functions. $$v(t)=6 t^{2}+4 t-10 ; s(0)=0$$
Show that \(x^{x}\) grows faster than \(b^{x}\) as \(x \rightarrow \infty,\) for \(b>1\).
The graph of \(f^{\prime}\) on the interval [-3,2] is shown in the figure. a. On what interval(s) is \(f\) increasing? Decreasing? b. Find the critical points of \(f .\) Which critical points correspond to local maxima? Local minima? Neither? c. At what point(s) does \(f\) have an inflection point? d. On what interval(s) is \(f\) concave up? Concave down? e. Sketch the graph of \(f^{\prime \prime}\) f. Sketch one possible graph of \(f\)
