document.write( "r(p) = =-2.5p^2 + 800p \r\n" );

document.write( "It will happen when  p = \"%28-800%29%2F%282%2A%28-2.5%29%29\" = \"800%2F5\" = 160 dollars.\r\n" );

document.write( "It is optimal price for dvd player.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "And the maximum revenue then will be  then  -2.5*160^2 + 800*160 = 64000 dollars.\r\n" );
