Answer:

p(x) = f(x) - g(x) = -0.04x² + 20.96x - 71

Explanation:

The sales are given by f(x) = 24.96x and the cost are represented by g(x) = 0.04x² + 4x + 71.

Then, the profit is equal to

p(x) = f(x) - g(x)

p(x) = 24.96x - (0.04x² + 4x + 71)

p(x) = 24.96x - 0.04x² - 4x - 71

p(x) = -0.04x² + 20.96x - 71

Therefore, the answer is

p(x) = f(x) - g(x) = -0.04x² + 20.96x - 71

Is the quotient of 3/5 ÷ 6/7 greater than or less than 3/5? Explain
Vikki [24]

The quotient of two fraction is the multiplication between the first and the inverse of the second:

\dfrac{a}{b} \div \dfrac{c}{d} = \dfrac{a}{b} \cdot \dfrac{d}{c}

So, in your case, you have

\dfrac{3}{5} \div \dfrac{6}{7} = \dfrac{3}{5} \cdot \dfrac{7}{6} = \dfrac{7}{10}

So, the question now is: which is larger, 7/10 or 3/5? To answer this question, transform the second fraction so that it will have denominator 10 as well:

\dfrac{3}{5} = \dfrac{3\cdot 2}{5 \cdot 2} = \dfrac{6}{10}

So, now it is clear that

\dfrac{7}{10} > \dfrac{6}{10}
