Solve the problem.
-Given the cost function, C(x), and the revenue function, R(x), write the profit function from producing and selling x units of the product. $$\begin{array} { l }
C ( x ) = 6000 x + 24,000 \
R ( x ) = 8000 x
\end{array}$$
A) $P ( x ) = 2000 x - 24,000$
B) $P ( x ) = - 2000 x + 24,000$
C) $\mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { x } ) = - 2000 \mathrm { x } - 24,000$
D) $P ( x ) = 2000 x + 24,000$

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Profit function, $P(x)$, is calculated by subtracting the cost function, $C(x)$, from the revenue function, $R(x)$: $P(x) = R(x) - C(x) = 8000x - (6000x + 24000) = 2000x - 24000$.

Solve the Problem C(x)=6000x+24,000R(x)=8000x\begin{array} { l } C ( x ) = 6000 x + 24,000 \\R ( x ) = 8000 x\end{array}C(x)=6000x+24,000R(x)=8000x​

Solve the Problem $\begin{array} { l } C ( x ) = 6000 x + 24,000 \\R ( x ) = 8000 x\end{array}$
