okay the problem states.
the price of an item is given by
p=2x^2-100
Find the polynomial that represents the revenue generated from the sale of x items.
So this is what i did so far:
First i tried solving for x using the equation.
so
p+100=2x^2
the rest i don't know what to do.
To find the polynomial that represents the revenue generated from the sale of x items, we need to multiply the price (p) by the number of items sold (x).
Given that the price of an item is given by p = 2x^2 - 100, we can express the revenue (R) generated from the sale of x items as follows:
R = p * x
Substituting the value of p from the given equation, we get:
R = (2x^2 - 100) * x
To simplify this expression, we can distribute the x to both terms inside the parentheses:
R = 2x^3 - 100x
Therefore, the polynomial that represents the revenue generated from the sale of x items is 2x^3 - 100x.
