Answer:

  • The formula for P(t) in terms of R(t) and A(t) is:

        [tex]P(t)=\frac{R(t)}{A(t)} =\frac{5000(1.111)^t}{200(1.1)^t}[/tex]

  • It can be simplified in terms of t as:

         [tex]P(t)=25(1.01)^t[/tex]

           

Explanation:

I will rewrite the question removing the errors, for better understanding:

  • If all goes according to plan, the function A(t)=200(1.1)^t will model the amount of potatoes, A, in bushels, produced by Burian's farm t years from now, and the function R(t)=5000(1.111)^t will model the revenue, R, in dollars, earned from selling these potatoes. Let P be the proposed price of a single bushel of potatoes t years from now. Write a formula for P(t).

You must depart from the equation that relates revenue (R), price (P), and number of items sold.

  • Revenue = Price × Number of items
  • R (t) = P(t) × A(t)

There you see that you can solve for P(t), which is the unknown function:

  • P(t) = R(t) / A(t)

Substituting you get:

  • [tex]P(t)=\frac{R(t)}{A(t)} =\frac{5000(1.111)^t}{200(1.1)^t}[/tex]

Divide the coefficients (5,000 / 200) and apply the power properties for the quotients of powers with the same power:

  • [tex]P(t)=25(1.111/1.1)^t=25(1.01)^t[/tex]
