You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The price of an item is given by p=2x^2 - 100
\n" ); document.write( "Find the polynomial that represents the revenue generated from the sale of x items.
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "They don't want to solve it, just write an equation that will give you the amt of revenue for a given number of items sold (x)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "They tell you two things
\n" ); document.write( "Price (p) = 2x^2 - 100
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "The number of items is given as the value of x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "We know that revenue (R) = number of items sold (x) * the price (p), therefore:
\n" ); document.write( "R = x * (2x^2 - 100)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply what's inside the brackets and you have:
\n" ); document.write( "R = 2x^3 - 100x; this is what they want
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Did this help you?
