R(x)= 360x - 0.04x^2
2 answers
R(4500) = 810,000
Rewrite: -o.o4x^2+360x
-0.04=a 360=b
Use the vertex equation: v= -b/2a
plug in: -360/2(-0.04) and solve
this is your x, so x=4,500
plug in this number into your original equation and replace it as the x:
-0.04(4,500)^2+360(4,500)
Solve:
-810,000+160,000= 810,000
x=810,000
maximum revenue = 810,000
-0.04=a 360=b
Use the vertex equation: v= -b/2a
plug in: -360/2(-0.04) and solve
this is your x, so x=4,500
plug in this number into your original equation and replace it as the x:
-0.04(4,500)^2+360(4,500)
Solve:
-810,000+160,000= 810,000
x=810,000
maximum revenue = 810,000
