A retailer of boom boxes knows that a price of "p" dollars each, he can sell 900-3p boom boxes per month. Find:
-----
A.) A polynomial that represents the monthly revenue for the boom boxes.
-----
formula for revenue is:
R = (900 - 3p) * p
where R = monthly revenue and p = price per boom box
-----
B.) How many boom boxes will he sell if the price is $200 each?
-----
R = (900 - 600) * $200.00 = 300 * $200.00 = $60,000.00
he will sell 300 boom boxes and earn $60,000.00 for the month.
-----
C.) How many boom boxes will he sell if the price is $300 each?
-----
R = (900 - 900) * $300.00 = 0 * $300.00 = $0.00
he will sell 0 boom boxes and earn $0.00 for the month.
