An electric utility company uses natural gas as fuel for a large multi-unit power plant. with all units in service, for a given hour the plant's fixed cost is $120,000 and its variable cost is $50 per megawatt demanded. Total revenue each hour in dollars varies with demand. TR is given by TR= 150D-0.02D^2 where D is megawatts demanded for a given hour.
a) What is the hourly demand in megawatts that will maximize the total revenue?
b) What is the hourly demand in megawatts that yields the maximum profit?
c) What is the maximum profit?
d) Which is the domain (range) of hourly megawatts demanded that will result in the plant being profitable (profit>0)?
