P(t) = 2t 3 – 15t 2 + 24t + 2 where 0 t 12 (a) Find (b) For which values of t is the profit decreasing? | 2. | A travel agent charters an aircraft and offers cheap flights to Hong Kong. The advertised price for the trip is $600 per person if 120 people or less sign up. For every person above 120 the price for each person will be reduced by $2. [For example if 123 people sign up then each person on the flight pays $594]. (a) If n is the number of persons above 120 signing up show that the total revenue,R (in dollars), received by the agent is given by R(n) = 72 000 + 360n – 2n 2 (b) How many passengers will provide the agent with the maximum possible revenue? (c) What is the maximum revenue the agent can obtain? (d) What restrictions, if any, need to be placed on the domain of n? | | |
