Last month an orange juice distributor found that the demand for juice was 500 litres each month when the price was $15 per litre. At that time, the price was going up at a rate of $0.50 per month, but due to increased advertising the demand was also going up, at a rate of 30 litres per month. How fast was the revenue increasing?

Let me see,

 

Last month the revenue was  500*15       =  $7500

This month the revenue will be  530*15.5 =  $8215

 

8215-7500 = $715/month

 

That sounds right to me......
