Answer:

- 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(4 +4 x²)(3x² - 5)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

4(3x² - 5) + 4x²(3x² - 5) ← distribute parenthesis

= 12x² - 20 + 12 $x^{4}$ - 20x² ← collect like terms

= 12 $x^{4}$ - 8x² - 20

with coefficient of x² term being - 8

larisa [96]

4.70, all the others can be simplified to 4.07 by taking away the zeroes after the 7 because they are not significant, The one before the 7 stays because it is significant as it is holding the tenths place value.

Total profit P is defined as total revenue R minus total cost C, and is given by the function P(x)=R(x)−C(x). Find the total pr

satela [25.4K]

Given:

The revenue function is

$R(x)=126.98x-0.5x^2$

The cost function is

$C(x)=3809.40+0.7x^2$

To find:

The profit function.

Solution:

We know that, the total profit P is defined as total revenue R minus total cost C.

So, the profit function is

$P(x)=R(x)-C(x)$

$P(x)=126.98x-0.5x^2-(3809.40+0.7x^2)$

$P(x)=126.98x-0.5x^2-3809.40-0.7x^2$

$P(x)=-3682.42-1.2x^2$

Therefore, the profit function is $P(x)=-3682.42-1.2x^2$ .
