Question

The profits of a company are found by subtracting the company's costs from its revenue. If a company's cost can be modeled by 10x+130,000 and its revenue can be modeled by 50x-0.0004x6^2, what is an expression for the profit?

 

so lost. desperate. help.

Answer 1

Brandon,

              Earnings or profit P = R-C as you stated above so P=50x-.0004*x²-10x-130,000 =40x-.0004*x²-130,000

Hope this helps
