I'm soo confused x( "Spider Industries is a U.S.-based company that test-marketed an electronic cobweb destroyer in Japan. The company's revenue, R, is a function of the number of destroyers sold, x, using the following formula R = 160x -0.2x2. How many destroyers must the company sell to maximize its revenue? (Hint: Think about the graph of this function and the information it gives. What properties of this graph can help answer the question?)" ??? I don't really understand the question???

Nevermind! I graphed it online instead of my calculator, and I got a parabola! So, for anyone else needed help with this question in the future, graph it and you will see that the max is at 400!
