Business Applications#
Question: Demand Function#
The demand, p = D(q), function shows how much of a product consumers want (q=quantity) and the price (p) they are willing to pay.
The demand function is given as the following linear relation: \(p = -2q+300\)
Determine the price if the number of items demanded is 75.
Use the variables \(q\) and \(p\).
Question: Demand Equation#
A store can sell 1200 ice creams at 3 dollars each. If the price is 5 dollars, they can sell 800 ice creams.
What will be the price if 500 ice creams are sold, assuming the demand is linear?
Hint:
Since the relation between
pandqis linear, we have \(p=mq+b\)The slope \(m\) is calculated using the formula \(\displaystyle m=\frac{p_2-p_1}{q_2-q_1}\) for given two points \((q_1,p_1)\) and \((q_2,p_2)\).
The y-intercept \(b\) can be found using one of the points \((q_1,p_1)\) or \((q_2,p_2)\) so \(b=p_1 - mq_1\) or \(b=p_2 - mq_2\)
Use the variables \(q_1, p_1, q_2, p_2\) for the given values in the question.
Question: Supply Function#
The supply function, \(p=S(q)\), shows how the price (p) affects the quantity (q) that producers want to supply.
The supply function is given by the linear relation \(p = 4q+100\).
Determine the price when 120 items are supplied.
Use the variables \(q\) and \(p\).
Question: Supply Equation#
A store can supply 2000 ice creams at 4 dollars each. If the price is 6 dollars, they can supply 6000 ice creams. How many ice creams can they supply at 5 dollars, assuming the supply is linear?
Hint:
Since the relation between \(p\) and \(q\) is linear, we have \(p=mq+b\)
The slope \(m\) is calculated using the formula \(\displaystyle m=\frac{p_2-p_1}{q_2-q_1}\) for given two points \((q_1,p_1)\) and \((q_2,p_2)\).
The y-intercept \(b\) can be found using one of the points \((q_1,p_1)\) or \((q_2,p_2)\) so \(b=p_1 - mq_1\) or \(b=p_2 - mq_2\)
Use the variables \(q_1, p_1, q_2, p_2\) for the given values in the question.
Question: Simple Interest#
Simple Interest Formulas: \(\displaystyle I=P r t\) and \(A = P + I\) where
A is the final amount
I is the interest amount
P is the initial (principal) amount
r is the annual interest rate (decimal form)
t is the number of years
You borrow 1,200 dollars for 8 months at a 24% annual simple interest rate.
How much interest will you pay?
What is the total amount you will repay after 8 months?
Hint:
Use the variables \(P, r, t\) for the given values.
Calculate the values of the variables \(I\) and \(A\).
t is 8/12 years.
Output:
a) I = 192.0
b) A = 1392.0
Question: Compound Interest#
Compund interest formula: \(\displaystyle A=P\left(1+{\frac {r}{n}}\right)^{nt}\) where
A is the final amount
P is the initial (principal) amount
r is the annual interest rate (decimal form)
n is the compounding frequency (anual: n=1, semi annual: r=2, quarter: r=4, monthly: r=12)
t is the number of years
If you deposit 800 dollars into a savings account with a 2.75 percent interest rate compounded monthly, what will be your balance after five years (Round your answer to the nearest hundredth)?
Hint:
Use the variables \(P, r, n, t\) for the given values.
Calculate the value of the variable \(A\).
Question: Continuous Compound Interest#
Continuous Compound Interest formula: \(\displaystyle A=Pe^{rt}\) where
A is the final amount
P is the initial (principal) amount
r is the annual interest rate (decimal form)
t is the number of years
If you deposit 500 dollars into a savings account with a 5.25 percent interest rate compounded continuously, what will be your balance after ten years (Round your answer to the nearest hundredth)?
Hint:
Use the variables \(P, r, t\) for the given values.
Calculate the value of the variable \(A\).
import the number e from the math module.
