Algebra.Com's Answer #772091 by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) You can put this solution on YOUR website! The profit (P), in dollars, for a company is modeled by the function P(x) = -750x² + 15000x, where x is the number of items produced. \n" ); document.write( " For what values of x will the company lose money? \n" ); document.write( "-750x² + 15000x < 0 \n" ); document.write( "Factor out -x \n" ); document.write( "-x(750x- 15000) < 0 \n" ); document.write( "multiply by -1, reverses inequality sign \n" ); document.write( "x(750x - 15000) > 20 \n" ); document.write( "750x > 15000 \n" ); document.write( "x > 15000/750 \n" ); document.write( "x > 20 \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Graphically, no of items on the x axis, profit on y axis \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x > 20 is the answer \n" ); document.write( " |
