Annual profit in thousands of dollars is given by the function, P(x) = 100√ x - 5 + 3,000, where x is the number of items sold in thousands, x ≥ 5.
1. describe the meaning of the number 5 in the formula
2. describe the meaning of the number 3000 in the formula
3. find the profit for 5 different values of x
4. Graph the profit function over its given domain; use the 5 values calculated in part 3 to construct the graph and connect these points with a smooth curve in Excel or another graphing utility. Insert the graph in a Word file and attach the graph in a Word file to the class DB thread.

radar · Answer

$$P(x)= 100\sqrt{x}-5 +3000$$ or is it$$P(x)=100\sqrt{x-5} + 3000$$
