11. Correct The answer is false. For a linear demand curve marginal revenue is twice as steep as the inverse demand curve. The inverse demand is P = 70 - 5Q with MR = 70 - 10Q. This can be shown quite easily. Let the inverse demand curve be P = a - bQ. Then TR = (a - bQ)Q = aQ -bQ² and ∂TR/∂Q = a -2bQ.
