d. p = (-1/20)x + 1030
\n" ); document.write( "p(8800) = (-1/20)8800 + 1030
\n" ); document.write( "p = -440 + 1030 = $\"+highlight_green%28590%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "checking
\n" ); document.write( "3,869,000 = 590x - (150x + 3000)
\n" ); document.write( "3,872,000/440 = 8800
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
