11. A store has been selling calculators at Rs 350 each. A market survey indicates that a reduction
in price (p) of calculator increases the number of units (x) sold. The relation between the price
and quantity sold is given by the demand function 𝑝
Based on the above information, answer the following questions:
(i) Determine the number of units (x) that should be sold to maximise the revenue R(x) = xp(x).
Also, verify result.
(ii) What rebate in price of calculator should the store give to maximise the revenue ?
