Answer:
<u>Given</u>:
- R(x) = 59x - 0.3x²
- C(x) = 3x + 14
<u>Find the following</u>:
- P(x) = R(x) - C(x) = 59x - 0.3x² - 3x - 14 = -0.3x² + 56x - 14
- R(80) = 59(80) - 0.3(80²) = 2800
- C(80) = 3(80) + 14 = 254
- P(80) = 2800 - 254 = 2546
Answer:
18 cents per ounce
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to identify the unit. In this case, you are told you have 16-ounces. Therefore, your unit is an ounce.
To find the price of one ounce, just divide your price of $2.88 by 16.
Unit rate = $2.88 / 16 = 0.18 or 18 cents per ounce.
