Question

The profit a business earns by selling aa items is given by the polynomial function: p(x) =x(160 − x) − (100x +500). What is the last term in the standard form of this polynomial? What does it mean in this situation?

Answer 1

Answer:

The last rem of the polynomial is -500          

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given that the profit a business earn by selling items is given by polynomial $p(x)=x(160-x)-(100x+500)$

We have to find the last term of the polynomial when it is written in standard form

For writing in standard form first we have to do operation on the polynomial

So $p(x)=x(160-x)-(100x+500)=160x-x^2-100x-500=-x^2+60x-500$

So the last rem of the polynomial is -500
