Algebra.Com's Answer #301665 by stanbon(75887) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! R(x)=200x-0.01x^2 \n" ); document.write( "C(x)= 38x+0.01x^2 \n" ); document.write( "Producing and selling how many units will give maximum profit? \n" ); document.write( "What is the maximum possible profit? \n" ); document.write( "I tried P(x)=R(x)-C(x) but I can't get it to a quadratic equation I can solve. \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "P(x) = (200x-0.01x^2)-(38x+0.01x^2) \n" ); document.write( "= 162x-0.02x^2 \n" ); document.write( "================ \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "================ \n" ); document.write( " |
