b. Write a function that represents the total money you would make selling x number of t-shirts.
c. Using part a and b. Write a function rule for your profit.

Thank you very much. Found 2 solutions by Mathtut, josmiceli:Answer by Mathtut(3670) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! a) let C=cost ..where x is the number of shirts
:
b)Let let R=revenue ....
:
c)
:
d)I will leave the tables to you
:
I believe this is a direct variation
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let = cost of tee-shirts
Let = money made selling tee-shirts dollars dollars
Let where is profit
This is read: as a function of equals
This is a direct variation, since if increases 1% or
any percent, increases the same percent
----------
x -- p(x)
-----------
1 -- 4.5
2 -- 9
3 -- 13.5
Notice that when went from 2 to 3 it increased 50%
and p(x) went from 9 to 13.5, also increasing 50%
