I really need help in math, can anyone please help me...
The revenue of Portside Fish Shanty, located at a popular summer resort, is approximately
R(t) = 2(5 -4 cos 6(π/6) t;
where 0≤ t ≤12, t is measured in weeks with t = 1 corresponding to the first week of June, and R is measured in thousands of dollars.The cost function, over the same interval of time, is given by
C(t) = 1 + (2π/3) t ;
and it is also measured in thousands of dollars.
(a) Find the intervals of increase and decrease of R(t).
(b) Find the intervals of increase and decrease of C(t).
(c) Find the intervals of increase and decrease of the profit functionP(t).
(d) At what value of t is the prot maximized? What is this maximum profit? You must fully justify your answer .
For this question, part a, do i have to change the cos to a actual number so i can solve for the critial numbers?
and for this, there is only one critial number? So what to do with one critial number?
Thanks!
