Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
R(x) -.5(x-70)^2 +2450= -.5(x^2 -140x + 4900) + 2450=-x^2/2 +70x - 2450+2450 = -x^2/2 +70x
C(x) = 30x +100
max x = 130
p(x) = R(x)-C(x)= -x^2/2 +70x -30x -100= -x^2/2 +40x -100
p(40)= -1600/2 -+1600 -100= $700= maximum profit
p(50)=-2500/2 + 2000-100= -1350+2000= $650
max profit is when p'= 0 when -x+40=0. x=40
