− − ⩾ In other words, the sign of the change in the maximizing x is the same as the sign of the change in p. If replaces in (1), then the sign of the change in x is the opposite of the sign of the change in ⩽ ⩾ p. For minimization rather than maximization the sign of the efect is reversed. Proof : By definition of maximization, we have

q = 196 = 49. profit-maximizing level of production i 1 If mπ = mr – mc = 0, then mr = mc. This is known as the first-order condition for a profit maximum. Second, find the firm’s profit-maximizing price p by substituting q* = 49 into the inverse demand function (Equation 4): = 200 49 = 200 − 98
