Answer:
km
Step-by-step explanation:
It's A. First of all, one of the only 2 things in math that will NEVER be negative is distances/lengths and times. You have a distance here, so because one of your 2 numbers is negative, you have to take the absolute value of the difference. -8-5 = -11, but the absolute value of that is 11. Put the numbers on a number line and count the units between -8 and +5 and there are 11 units between those 2 numbers.
Whenever there is no exponent on a variable,
you can give it an exponent of 1.
So we can rewrite the x's in this problem as x¹.
When we multiply two terms together
with like bases, we add their exponents.
So now just add their exponents to get x².
A) The peak of the curve has coordinates (3, 45). Thus the maximum is 45 hundred dollars. It occurs when 3 hundred dollars are spent on advertisiing.
The maximum possible monthly profit of the shop is about $4500.
b) The x interval over which P(x) is greater than zero appears to be 0 to 10 hundred dollars. What is not clear from the question is whether the expected answer is (0, 10) or (0, 1000).
c) The maximum profit is earned when $300 is spent on advertising.
