Algebra.Com's Answer #81923 by scott8148(6628)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! revenue=(tickets)*(price) ___ let x=\"price increase\"\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "r=(2000-100x)(10+x) ___ r=20000+1000x-100x^2\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the graph of this is a downward opening parabola ___ the maximum is on the axis of symmetry\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x=-b/2a ___ x=-1000/((2)(-100))\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if you want, you can find the revenue by substituting the x value into the r equation \n" ); document.write( " |
