At the end of 2007, the price of peanut butter was increasing by approximately
0.58 dollars per pound per year. The price continued to increase until midway
through 2009 (t =1.4); however, the rate of the increase was decreasing
because p is positive and decreasing between t = 0 and t = 1.4. Between t =
1.4 and t = 3.1, p is negative. This tells us that the price of peanut butter was
decreasing from midway through 2009 (t = 1.4) until early 2011 (t =3.1). The
rate of decrease varied but the most significant rate of decrease occurred in
early 2010 (t = 2.2) when the price was decreasing at a rate of approximately
0.10 dollars per pound per year. Between t = 3.1 and t = 5, p is positive and
increasing. This tells us that between early 2011 and the end of 2012, the price
of peanut butter was increasing at an increasing rate. At the end of 2011 (t =
4), the price was increasing at a rate of 0.33 dollars per pound per year.
However, at the end of 2012 (t = 5), the price was increasing at a rate of 0.95
dollars per pound per year.

25.

The graph of p is positive between t = 0 and t = 9. This indicates that the price
of wine was increasing from the end of 2002 through the end of 2011. However,
the rate of increase varied over this time period. At the end of 2002 ( t = 0) , the
price was increasing at 0.26 dollars per liter per year. The maximum rate of
increase occurred near the end of 2006 ( t = 3.9 ) when the price was increasing at
a rate of 0.59 dollars per liter per year. From the end of 2006 through the end of
2011, the rate of increase in the price decreased. At the end of 2008 ( t = 6) , the
rate of increase was 0.49 dollars per liter per year. At the end of 2009 ( t = 7 ) , the
rate of increase was 0.38 dollars per liter per year. At the end of 2010 ( t = 8) , the

rate of increase was 0.22 dollars per liter per year. At the end of 2011, the rate of
increase was 0.01 dollars per liter per year. The graph of p is negative between
t = 9 and t = 10. This means that from the end of 2011 to the end of 2012, the
price of wine decreased. At the end of 2012, the price was decreasing at a rate of
0.24 dollars per liter per year.

We solve this equation using the CALC, 2:zero function on the TI-84 calculator.
On the interval  0, 200 , the solution is q = 66.87 . Observe for q  66.87 ,
dP dP

at q = 66.87 . We evaluate P at this value.

P ( 66.87 ) = − 35 ( 66.87 )
0.00484 ( 66.87 ) + 0.152
 4984
According to the model, the maximum profit of 4984 million dollars will occur
when 66.87 million iPods are sold.

b. To determine the price, we evaluate the price function at q = 66.87 .

52.1
The price is p =  109.53 . When the price is $109.53 per
0.00484 ( 66.87 ) + 0.152

iPod, the profit is maximized.

4. a. Since the sum of the length plus girth is 130 inches, L + 4W = 130 . Solving this

equation for L yields L = 130 − 4W . The volume equation is

V = W 2L
= W 2 (130 − 4W )
= 130W 2 − 4W 3

Observe that V  changes from positive to negative at W  21.67 . Therefore, the
maximum volume occurs when the width is W  21.67 inches .
5. a. We solve the equation p = −0.10q +1.80 for q:

p = −0.10q + 1.80
0.10q = − p + 1.80
q = −10 p + 18

Thus = −10.

6. a. We solve the equation p = −0.16q + 9.60 for q:

p = −0.16q + 9.60
0.16q = − p + 9.60
q = −6.25p + 60

Thus = −6.25.

So

E ( 5.83) =  1.55
−6.25 ( 5.83) + 60
According to the model, the demand for cheddar cheese is elastic when the price is
$5.83 /lb.
b. We solve E ( p ) = 1.

6.25 p
=1
−6.25 p + 60
6.25 p = −6.25 p + 60
12.5 p = 60
p = 4.8
Revenue from cheddar cheese will be maximized when the price is $4.80/lb.
c. R ( p ) = p ( −6.25p + 60) = −6.25p 2 + 60 p
d. dR
= −12.5 p + 60
dp
= −12.5 ( 4.80 ) + 60

Because the graph of the revenue function is a concave down parabola, the
revenue function is maximized when the price is $4.80 per pound.

p=

c. Since E (199 )  1, the demand is elastic when the price is $199.

d. According to the model, a 1% increase in price will result in a 2.38% decrease in

demand.

8. a. Since the length plus the girth is 108, L + 6W = 108. Thus L = −6W +108.
The volume equation is
V = 2W 2 L

b. V  = −36W 2 + 432W

 PREFACE.

The writer of this volume, in the pursuit of his profession as an

editor, and throughout an active political life, has always felt the
need of a volume from which any important fact, theory or record
could be found at a moment’s glance, and without a search of many
records. He has also remarked the singular fact that no history of the
political parties of the country, as they have faced each other on all
leading issues, has ever been published. These things prompted an
undertaking of the work on his own part, and it is herewith presented
in the hope that it will meet the wants not only of those connected
with politics, but of all who take an interest in public affairs. In this
work very material aid has been rendered by the gentleman whose
name is also associated with its publication, and by many political
friends, who have freely responded during the past year to the calls
made upon them for records, which have been liberally employed in
the writing and compilation of this work.
