Write a let statement for the independent variable you would use to model this relation (where Revenue is the dependant variable)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$18*350 is current revenue
let x=number of $0.50 price reductions in the price, and therefore let 15x=the increased number of shirts sold.
So R=($18-$0.50x)*(350+15x)
