-----------------------------------
A) if $60 is charged for a design fee,and the monthly studio rent is $1,500; write an equation for the profit,P,in terms of X
P(x) = -0.3x^2+60x - 1500
-----------------------------
B)how much profit when 50 award designs are sold in a month?
P(50) = -0.3*50^2+60*50-1500 = $750
-------------------------------------------
C)how many award designs must be sold in order to maximize the profit?
Max occurs when x = -b/2a = -60/(2(-0.3)) = 100
--
D0 what is the maximum profit?
P100) = -0.3*100^2+60*100-1500 = 1500
