Acarpool service has 2,000 daily riders. a one-way ticket costs $5.00. the service estimates that for each $1.00 increase to the one-way fare, 100 passengers will find other means of transportation. let x represent the number of $1.00 increases in ticket price. choose the inequality to represent the values of x that would allow the carpool service to have revenue of at least $12,000. then, use the inequality to select all the correct statements. the maximum profit the company can make is $4,125.00. the maximum profit the company can make is $15,625.00. the price of a one-way ticket that will maximize revenue is $12.50. the price of a one-way ticket that will maximize revenue is $7.50.

Total number of riders that ride on carpool daily = 2000

Total Cost of one way ticket = $ 5.00

Total Amount earned if 2000 passengers rides daily on carpool = 2000 × 5

                                                                                                            = $10,000

If fare increases by $ 1.00

New fare = $5 + $1    

               = $6

Number of passengers riding on carpool = 2,000 - 100 = 1,900

If 1,900 passengers rides on carpool daily , total amount earned ,if cost of each ticket is $ 6 = 1900 × $6 = $11400

As we have to find the inequality which represents the values of x that would allow the carpool service to have revenue of at least $12,000.

For $ 1 increase in fare = (2,000 - 1 × 100) passengers

For $ x increase in fare, number of passengers = 2,000 - 100·x

                                                         = (2,000 - 100·x) passengers

New fare = 5 + x

New Fare × Final Number of passengers ≥ 12,000

(5+x)·(2,000 - 100 x) ≥ 12,000

5 (2,000 - 100 x) + x(2,000 - 100 x) ≥ 12,000

10,000 - 500 x + 2,000 x - 100 x² ≥ 12,000

100 - 5 x + 20 x - x² ≥ 120

- x² + 15 x +100 - 120 ≥ 0

-x² + 15 x -20 ≥ 0

x² - 15 x + 20 ≤ 0

⇒ x = 1.495

x ≥ $ 1.495, that is if we increase the fare by this amount or more than this the revenue will be at least 12,000 or more .

Also, f'(x) = 0 gives x = 7.5

⇒ The price of a one-way ticket that will maximize revenue is $7.50

do it yourself this is easy

step-by-step explanation:

no oblique asymptote

step-by-step explanation:

to find the oblique asymptote of f(x)

here numerator has degree 1 and denomintor degree 2

degree of numerator < degree of denominator

hence there is no oblique asymptote

when the degree of the denominator > that of the numerator, we saw that the value in the denominator got so much bigger, so quickly,   giving us a horizontal asymptote of the x-axis. or we can write

f(x) = a polynomial of x + a proper fraction.

in this case only we have oblique asymptotes but not when numerator has less degree.
