You need an equation system.
First, translate the text into equations :
y = total price for the bike
x = number of months
first bike :
y = 25x + 500
second bike :
y = 50x + 200
Then you have to solve the system by placing the two equations side by side and comparing them.
25x + 500 = 50x + 200
Solve to find the value of x
You multiply the two side lengths for area
To get 52x^3y
To find perimeter you add all the side lengths to get 8x^2+26x
Q(p) = k/p^3 . . . . . . . . we want to find k
q(10) = k/10^3 = 64
k = 64,000
Revenue = q(p)*p = 64000/p^2
Cost = 150 +2q = 150 +2*64000/p^3
Profit = Revenue -Cost = 64000/p^2(1 -2/p) -150
Differentiating to find the maximum profit, we have
.. dProfit/dp = -2(64000/p^3) +6(64000/p^4) = 0
.. -1 +3/p = 0
.. p = 3
A price of $3 per unit will yield a maximum profit.
