An amusement park has estimated the following demand equation for the average park guest
Q=16-2P
Where Q represents the number of rides per guest and P the price per ride. The total cost of providing rides to a guest is
TC=2+0.5Q
If a one-price policy is used, how much should it charge per ride if the park wishes to maximize its profit?
What is the park's profit for each guest?
If a two-part tariff policy is used, what admission fee should the park charge to maximize its profit?
What is the park's profit for each guest?
(please show work as I am confused. Thanks!!)

An amusement park, whose customer set is made up of two markets, adults and children, has developed demand schedules as follows: Qa = 20 – Pa where a is adult market Qc = 30 – 2 Pc Where c is children market QT = 50 – 3 PT where T is the two markets combined Assume that the marginal cost of each unit of quantity is $5 (constant), the owners of the park want to maximize profit: A) Calculate the price, quantity and profit if the amusement park charges a different price in each market. B) Calculate the price, quantity and profit if the amusement park charges the same price in the two markets combined.

Testing at the 0.05 level, is there enough evidence to support the strategist's claim?
Step 4 of 7:
Determine the P-value of the test statistic. Round your answer to four decimal places.
