Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step1: find the interval of roots. Consider -3 and -2
Hence, the root must be on [-3,-2]
Step2: consider the middle point -2.5
Then, the root must be on [-3, -2.5]
Step 3: Repeat step 2 by finding the value of f at the middle point -2.75
Step 3: Repeat step 2 by finding the value of f at the middle point of the interval [-2.75,-2.5] which is -2.625
Step4: Repeat step 2 on [-2.75, -2.625]
Repeat step 2 until you got the root which is -2.701
it's x ≤ 3 :))) I found it out after realizing what you were asking
Answer:
a)
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost function = revenue function - profit function
= -0.3x² + 150x - [-0.5x² + 250x - 300]
= -0.3x² + 150x + 0.5x² - 250x +300
= -0.3x² + 0.5x² + 150x - 250x + 300 {Combine like terms}
= 0.2x² - 100x + 300
