Demand Equation
1. **State the problem:** We are given the marginal revenue function $$\frac{dR}{dq} = 100 - \frac{3}{2}\sqrt{2q}$$ and need to find the corresponding demand equation.
2. **Recall the relationship:** Marginal revenue $$\frac{dR}{dq}$$ is the derivative of the revenue function $$R(q)$$ with respect to quantity $$q$$. Revenue $$R(q)$$ is price $$p(q)$$ times quantity $$q$$, i.e., $$R(q) = p(q) \times q$$.
3. **Integrate marginal revenue to find revenue:**
$$R(q) = \int \left(100 - \frac{3}{2}\sqrt{2q}\right) dq = \int 100 dq - \int \frac{3}{2} \sqrt{2q} dq$$
4. **Calculate each integral:**
- $$\int 100 dq = 100q$$
- For $$\int \frac{3}{2} \sqrt{2q} dq$$, rewrite $$\sqrt{2q} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{q} = \sqrt{2} q^{1/2}$$:
$$\int \frac{3}{2} \sqrt{2} q^{1/2} dq = \frac{3\sqrt{2}}{2} \int q^{1/2} dq = \frac{3\sqrt{2}}{2} \times \frac{2}{3} q^{3/2} = \sqrt{2} q^{3/2}$$
5. **Combine results:**
$$R(q) = 100q - \sqrt{2} q^{3/2} + C$$ where $$C$$ is the constant of integration.
6. **Express revenue in terms of price:**
Since $$R(q) = p(q) q$$, we have
$$p(q) = \frac{R(q)}{q} = \frac{100q - \sqrt{2} q^{3/2} + C}{q} = 100 - \sqrt{2} q^{1/2} + \frac{C}{q}$$
7. **Interpretation:** Usually, for demand functions, the constant $$C$$ is zero or determined by boundary conditions. Assuming $$C=0$$,
**Demand equation:**
$$p(q) = 100 - \sqrt{2} \sqrt{q}$$
This is the demand function corresponding to the given marginal revenue.
**Final answer:** $$p(q) = 100 - \sqrt{2} \sqrt{q}$$
