Question 1115177
.
<pre>
The revenue will be maximized when the quadratic function 


r(p) = =-2.5p^2 + 800p 


will get the maximum.


It will happen when  p = {{{(-800)/(2*(-2.5))}}} = {{{800/5}}} = 160 dollars.


It is optimal price for dvd player.


And the maximum revenue then will be  then  -2.5*160^2 + 800*160 = 64000 dollars.
