***We want to know how many <u>times</u> <u>farther</u> do the Knicks travel when they play the Los Angeles Lakers <u>compared</u> to the Miami Heat? ***
To do this, we just need to know the distance between the two and divide the bigger by the smaller (think if I told you distance from part A to B is 6 and the distance from part A to C is 3. And then ask you how many times farther the distance to C is from A than B. just <u>divide</u> 6/3 = 2)
1) Note the distance from <u>Madison</u> to <u>Staples</u> (2.8 × 103 miles) and <u>Madison</u> to <u>American A.</u> (1.4 × 103 miles).
We can associate Knicks with <u>Madison</u>, Los Angeles with <u>Staples</u>, and Miami Heat with <u>American A.</u>
2) Now divide 2.8 × 103/(1.4 × 103) = 2
So all your doing is going 3 jumps to the positive side and 4 jumps to the negative side.
Answer:
The profit function is p(x)=700x-1150.
Step-by-step explanation:
The monthly expenses, in dollars, for x months of operation is given by the function
The monthly revenue, in dollars, earned by the bakery is given by the function
The formula for profit:
Subtract the revenue and cost function to find the profit function.
On combining like terms we get
Therefore the profit function is p(x)=700x-1150.
