OpenStudy (misty1212):

HI!!

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

hi :))

OpenStudy (misty1212):

i think you are supposed to subtract right?

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

I'm really not sure :/

OpenStudy (misty1212):

that is what is says for sure

OpenStudy (misty1212):

\[R(x)-C(x)=1.25x-0.6x-1500\]

OpenStudy (misty1212):

you get \[P(x)=0.65x-1500\]

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

do I just plug in 500,000 in for the x's and subtract r from c to get p?

OpenStudy (misty1212):

for the second part replace \(x\) by \(500,000\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just plug in 1.25X for R(x) and .6x +15,000 for C(x)

OpenStudy (misty1212):

yeah\\[P(x)=0.65x-1500\\ P(500,000)=0.65\times 500,000-1500\]

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

isn''t it .6 and the 15000 is positive? I'm sorry i'm trying to process this lol

OpenStudy (misty1212):

hey it is ok i subtracted first, plugged in the number second

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

yeah I got it thanks :)))) can you help me on other problems, please?
