Q:

The cost of producing x soccer balls in thousands of dollars is represented by h(x) = 5x + 6. The revenue is represented byko 9x2 Which expression represents the profit, (k-1)(x) of producing soccer balls?

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:(k-h)(x) = 4x - 8Step-by-step explanation:We know Profit = Revenue - CostBasically we gotta subtract cost function from revenue function and get the profit function.The cost function is h(x) = 5x + 6The revenue function is k(x) = 9x - 2Hence, Profit is:(k-h)(x) = (9x - 2) - (5x + 6)(k-h)(x) = 9x -2 - 5x - 6(k-h)(x) = 4x - 8
