Document Summary

Please read the problems carefully and do all you are asked to do. You can use the back page as a scratch paper. A linear equation was used to generate the following table. Write the solution for part (a) here: y. A company producing jigsaw puzzles has xed cost of and variable cost of per puzzle. The company sells the puzzles for each. (a)(7 points). Find formulas for the cost function c(q) and the revenue function r(q). (b)(7 points). Suppose the population of an island is given by the following table. Do some calculations to justify your claim. (b)(8 points). Find a formula for the function in part (a) that ts the data better. The formula should predict the population of the island t decades after 1950. In each of the parts (a) - (d), determine whether or not the function is a power function. Solving the following equations for t using natural logarithms: (a)(6 points).
