Let x be the number of increases of $1 a month.
Let y be the maximum profit.
The profit before the price increases:
$5-$3=$2
The profit when increasing the price:
y= (2+x x 1)(4000-400x)
y= 8000-800x +4000x -400x2             (x2: x square)
The vertex:
x= -3200/(-400 x 2) = 4
=> y= 14400
The price can maximize the profit is:
p= 3+ 2 +4x1= 9
The price can maximize the profit is $9
The maximum profit is $14400.

What is the quotient? startfraction n 3 over 2 n minus 6 endfraction divided by startfraction n 3 over 3 n minus 9 endfraction
bazaltina [42]

The quotient of the fraction n³ / (2n - 6) ÷ n³ / (3n - 9) is 2/3

<h3 /><h3>How to solve fraction</h3><h3 />

n³ / (2n - 6) ÷ n³ / (3n - 9)

  • multiply by the reciprocal of n³ / (3n - 9)

= n³ / (2n - 6) × 1 / n³ / (3n - 9)

= 2n - 6 / 3n - 9

= 2(n - 3) / 3(n - 3)

= 2/3

Therefore, quotient of the fraction n³ / (2n - 6) ÷ n³ / (3n - 9) is 2/3
