Based on data from 1999 to 2001, the net sales (revenue) of Gatorade/Tropicana North America is

R(t) = -107t2+496t+3452 million dollars
and the operating profit is
P(t) = −18.5t2 + 85.5t + 433 million dollars
- where t is the number of years since 1999Profit = Revenue – Costs.

Find an expression representing the costs for this time period.
What was the revenue in 2000? (Years since 1999 = 1.)
What was the profit in 2000?

since P = R - C

C = R - P
= -107t^2 + 496t + 3452 - (-18t^2 + 85.5t + 433)
= -89t^2 410.5t + 3019

revenue in 2000
= R(1) = ...... just sub in t = 1
repeat for
P(1) = ....
