Question

7 The graph of p = 400 and the graph of p = 50s - 200 intersect at the point (12,400).

Answer 1

Answer:

B When the sales are 12, the profit is 400.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p = 500s - 200$

$p = 400$

$(s,p) = (12,400)$

Required

Interpret the intersection

From the intersection, we have the following parameters.

$(s,p) = (12,400)$

Literally, it means

$s = 12$ when $p = 400$

From the question, we understand that

s represents sales while p, profit.

So, the interpretation of $(s,p) = (12,400)$ is when sales = 12, profit = 400
