: CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM:
Total profit is defined as total revenue minus total cost. R(x) and C(x) are the revenue and cost from the sale of x televisions. If R(x) = 240x - 0.9x^2 and C(x) = 4000 + 0.6x^2, find the profit from the sale of 100 televisions.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Total profit is defined as total revenue minus total cost. R(x) and C(x) are the revenue and cost from the sale of x televisions. If R(x) = 240x - 0.9x^2 and C(x) = 4000 + 0.6x^2, find the profit from the sale of 100 televisions.
---------------------------------
Sub 100 for x
----------------
R(x) = 240x - 0.9x^2
R(100) = 240*100 - 0.9*100*100
R(100) = 24000 - 9000
R(100) = $15,000
-----------------
C(x) = 4000 + 0.6x^2
C(100) = 4000 + 0.6*100*100
C(100) = $6,400
---------------
Profit = R - C = $8,600
