19. A taxi service operates between two airports transporting
200 passengers a day. The charge is $15.00. The owner
estimates that 10 passengers will be lost for each $2
increase in the fare. What charge would be most profitable
for the service? What is the maximum income? VERTEX
Define the variable
x = number of $2
price increases
f(x) = income
x=
−b
2a
x=
−250
2 ( −20 )
x = 6.25
Income = Price ● Quantity
f(x) = ( 15 + 2x ) ( 200 – 10x )
f(x) = 3000 – 150x + 400x – 20x2
f(x) = – 20x2 + 250x + 3000
f(6.25) = – 20(6.25)2 + 250(6.25) + 3000
Vertex is:
f(6.25) = 3781.25
( 6.25,
3781.25)
So, price = (15 + 2x) = (15 + 2(6.25)) = 15 + 12.5 = $27.50
Maximum income = f(x) = $3781.25
