Linear Function
A linear function can be expressed in the form
( )f x mx b
where m and b are fixed numbers.

Graph of a Linear Function
The graph of a linear function is a straight line.
( )y f x mx b
m is called the slope of the line and
b is the y-intercept of the line.
This means that we need only two points to completely determine its graph.

The Role of m (slope)
f changes m units for each one-unit change in x.
The Role of b (y-intercept)
when x = 0, f (0) = b
Role of m and b in f (x) = mx + b
![Page 6: Sections 4.1 and 4.2 Linear Functions and Their Properties Linear Models.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061508/5697bf771a28abf838c817cb/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
To see how f changes, consider a unit change in x.
( )f x mx b ( 1) ( 1)f x m x b
Then, the change in f is given by
( 1) ( )f x f x ( 1)m x b ( )mx b ( 1) ( )f x f x mx m b mx b ( 1) ( )f x f x m
Role of m and b in f (x) = mx + b

First,General Definitions
![Page 22: Sections 4.1 and 4.2 Linear Functions and Their Properties Linear Models.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061508/5697bf771a28abf838c817cb/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Cost Function
A cost function specifies the cost C as a function of the number of items x produced. Thus, C(x) is the total cost of producing x items.
The cost functions is made up of two parts: C(x)= “variable costs” + “fixed costs”
![Page 23: Sections 4.1 and 4.2 Linear Functions and Their Properties Linear Models.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061508/5697bf771a28abf838c817cb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
If the graph of a cost function is a straight line, then we have a Linear Cost Function.
If the graph is not a straight line, then we have a Nonlinear Cost Function.

Revenue Function
The revenue function specifies the total payment received R from selling x items. Thus, R(x) is the revenue from selling x items.
A revenue function may be Linear or Nonlinear depending on the expression that defines it.
![Page 27: Sections 4.1 and 4.2 Linear Functions and Their Properties Linear Models.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061508/5697bf771a28abf838c817cb/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

Profit Function The profit function specifies the net proceeds P.
Thus P represents what remains of the revenue when costs are subtracted. Thus, P(x) is the profit from selling x items.
A profit function may be linear or nonlinear depending on the expression that defines it.
Profit = Revenue – Cost
![Page 30: Sections 4.1 and 4.2 Linear Functions and Their Properties Linear Models.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061508/5697bf771a28abf838c817cb/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

The Linear Models are
Cost Function: 1( )C x m x b
* m1 is the marginal cost (cost per item), b is fixed cost.
Revenue Function: 2( )R x m x* m2 is the marginal revenue.
Profit Function: ( ) ( ) ( )P x R x C x
where x = number of items (produced and sold)

Break-Even Analysis
The break-even point is the level of production that results in no profit and no loss.
To find the break-even point we set the profit function equal to zero and solve for x.

Example: A shirt producer has a fixed monthly cost of $3600. If each shirt has a cost of $3 and sells for $12 find:
a. The cost function
b. The revenue function
c. The profit from 900 shirts
C (x) = 3x + 3600 where x is the number of shirts produced.
R (x) = 12x where x is the number of shirts sold.
P (x) = R(x) – C(x)
P (x) = 12x – (3x + 3600) = 9x – 3600
P(900) = 9(900) – 3600 = $4500
![Page 36: Sections 4.1 and 4.2 Linear Functions and Their Properties Linear Models.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061508/5697bf771a28abf838c817cb/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
C (x) = R (x)
Example: A shirt producer has a fixed monthly cost of $3600. If each shirt has a cost of $3 and sells for $12 find the break-even point.
The break even point is the solution of the equation

Therefore, at 400 units the break-even revenue is $4800

Demand Function
A demand function or demand equation expresses the number q of items demanded as a function of the unit price p (the price per item).
Thus, q(p) is the number of items demanded when the price of each item is p.
As in the previous cases we have linear and nonlinear demand functions.
![Page 41: Sections 4.1 and 4.2 Linear Functions and Their Properties Linear Models.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061508/5697bf771a28abf838c817cb/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Supply Function
A supply function or supply equation expresses the number q of items, a supplier is willing to make available, as a function of the unit price p (the price per item).
Thus, q(p) is the number of items supplied when the price of each item is p.
As in the previous cases we have linear and nonlinear supply functions.
![Page 44: Sections 4.1 and 4.2 Linear Functions and Their Properties Linear Models.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061508/5697bf771a28abf838c817cb/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

To find the Equilibrium price set the demand equation equal to the supply equation and solve for the price p.
To find the Equilibrium demand evaluate the demand (or supply) function at the equilibrium price found in the previous step.

Example: The maker of a plastic container has determined that the demand for its product is 400 units if the unit price is $3 and 900 units if the unit price is $2.50.
The manufacturer will not supply any containers for less than $1 but for each $0.30 increase in unit price above the $1, the manufacturer will market an additional 200 units. Assume that the supply and demand functions are linear. Let p be the price in dollars, q be in units of 100 and find:
