Answer:
The lesser number of workbooks are 1,000
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct question is
The profit P (in thousands of dollars) for an educational publisher can be modeled by P=-b³+5b²+b where b is the number of workbooks printed (in thousands). Currently, the publisher prints 5000 workbooks and makes a profit of $5000. What lesser number of workbooks could the publisher print and still yield the same profit?
we have
For
substitute in the equation and solve for b
Remember that the profit and the number of workbooks is in thousands
so
P=5
Using a graphing tool
Solve the cubic function
The solutions are
x=-1
x=1
x=5
therefore
The lesser number of workbooks are 1,000
<u><em>Verify</em></u>
For b=1
-----> is in thousands
so
----> is ok
Fist plug in 7 in to the X values like so 12 (3 (7) +5 (7)) then solve in side the parenthesis 3×7 =21 and 5×7=35 then add them 35+21=56 and then you are left with 12(56) or 12×56= 672
