A profit function is a function that focuses on business applications. The primary purpose for a business is to sell a product or service in order to make a profit, which is the revenue a company receives for selling a product or service less the cost for creating a product or service.

X/2+1=6
- 1 from both sides cause we take the opposite sign like if it was x/2-1 we will +1
So it will be x/2=5
Then multiple 2 both sides cause division will turn to multiplication and if it was 2 times x we will divide
So it will be x=10 the final answer.
Hope you understood the steps and I hope it is right

Step 1

Revenue (sometimes referred to as sales revenue) is the amount of gross income produced through sales of products or services. This, in the context of the question, means that the revenue generated from the sales of tickets is given by the function below. We are now required to find the price that tickets will be sold at in a day based on the function that will make the revenue to be equal to $0.

The revenue is given by the function;

$\begin{gathered} f(p)=150p-5p^2 \\ f(p)\text{ is the revenue and should be equal to 0 according to the question.} \\ p=\text{ The price of tickets for the day for the revenue to be 0} \end{gathered}$

To solve this problem or to find this price at which tickets will be solved to give us zero revenue, we must equate the given function for the revenue to 0 and find the value of p, the price of the tickets that make the function to be equal to 0.

For the theatre to make $0 in revenue, this means f(p)=0.

Therefore, we will equate f(p) to 0

Step 2

Equate f(p) to 0

$\begin{gathered} 0=150p-5p^2 \\ p(150-5p)=0----(\text{factorize)} \\ p=0 \\ 0r \\ 150-5p=0 \\ 150=5p \\ \frac{5p}{5}=\frac{150}{5} \\ p=30 \\ p=0\text{ or 30} \end{gathered}$

Therefore the revenue to be zero, the price of the ticket will be $0 or $30 but the question asked us how high the ticket price will be to get a revenue of 0. Both 0 and 30 gave us revenue of 0 but $30 is higher therefore, the answer will be $30.

Check;

$\begin{gathered} 150p-p^2=0 \\ \text{If the price of tickets=0} \\ 150(0)-5(0^2)=0 \\ \text{If p=30} \\ 150(30)-5(30^2)=4500-4500=0 \end{gathered}$

Both give us 0 revenue but $30 is higher and the right answer.

Step 3

The equation you can write for revenue of $700 is;

$\begin{gathered} 700=150p-5p^2 \\ 5p^2-150p+700=0_{} \end{gathered}$

How to solve this equation equal to zero

hjlf

3x² -16x-12 =0

We can solve this equation using formula.

a=3, b=-16, c=-12

$x= \frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} 
\\ \\ x= \frac{16+/- \sqrt{16^{2}+4*3*12} }{2*3} = \frac{16+/- \sqrt{400} }{6} = \frac{16+/-20}{6} 
\\ \\ x_{1}= \frac{16+20}{6} =6
\\ \\x_{2}= \frac{16-20}{6} =- \frac{4}{6} = -\frac{2}{3}$

You can use any data set in this table (except the row with x) to get the ratio.

so 20/196 is the ratio which equals about .102041

then multiply that decimal by the weight in the x row to see what x is

so 1078(.102041) = 110.000198 just round that to 110. you can also verify that ratio by checking other data points. for instance

490(.102041) = 50.00009 or 50

so you know x is 50 so answer is either b or d

then you know the ratio .102041, so does (10/98) = .102041

or does (98/10) = .102041

if you do the division you will see that (10/98) = .102041

so the answer is D
