An entrepreneur estimates that the total profit (profit = total revenue minus total cost) from his proposed company will be give
n by the function P(x) = x3 – 4x2 + 3x – 12, where P is in hundreds of dollars and x is the number of years elapsed after the company starts operations. In how many years (x) will the company break even (no profit, no loss)? 1 year

Answer:
hope this helps :))
Step-by-step explanation:
the break even point is when y = 0 because y is the profit. This is also the x-intercept so since the x-axis represents the years, the x-intercept is the break even point, in this case that number is 4. So 4 years is the correct answer. its an easier way to think about it i think. also, can i pretty pretty please get brainliest :))

For the largest area, half the fence is used parallel to the river, and the other half is used for the two ends of the rectangular space.
The dimensions are 475 m by 237.5 m.
_____
Let x represent the length along the river. Then the area (A) is found as
.. A = x*(950 -x)/2
This equation describes a parabola with its vertex (maximum) halfway between the zeros of x=0 and x=950. That is, the maximum area is achieved when half the fence is used parallel to the river.
