Question

An accountant is examining the profits for a company. The company's revenues are represented by the function R(x) = 21x + 125 and the costs with C(x) = 7x , where x is the number of units soldWhat is the company's profit when 11 units are sold? (HintProfit can be found by subtracting cost from the revenue, or P(x)=R(x)-C(x).) (1 point) The company's profit after 11 units are sold is

Answer 1

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(11) = (21(11) + 125) - (7(11))
P(11) = (231 + 125) - 77
P(11) = 356 - 77
P(11) = 279

Therefore, the company's profit after 11 units are sold is $279.
