Question:

A company manufactures memory chips for microcomputers. Its marketing research department, using statistical techniques, collected the data shown in Table 8, where p is the wholesale price per chip at which x million chips can be sold. Using special analytical techniques (regression analysis), an analyst produced the following price– demand function to model the data:

p(x) = 75 - 3x 1 ≤  x ≤ 20

(A) Plot the data points in Table 8, and sketch a graph of the price demand function in the same coordinate system.
(B) What would be the estimated price per chip for a demand of 7 million chips? For a demand of 11 million chips?
