Respuesta :

Answer:

  • C(x) = 98000+12.30x
  • R(x) = 17.98x
  • P(x) = 5.68x -98000

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost function is the sum of fixed costs and the cost of making x number of pet rocks:

  C(x) = 98000 +12.30x

The revenue is generated by the sale of the rocks. It is the product of selling price and the number sold.

  R(x) = 17.98x

Profit is the difference between revenue and cost.

  P(x) = R(x) -C(x) = 17.98x -(98000 +12.30x)

  P(x) = 5.68x -98000
