Question

The revenue from manufacturing and selling x units of toaster ovens is given by:

R(x) = –.03x^2 + 200x – 82,000
How much revenue should the company expect from selling 3,000 toaster ovens?

Answer 1

$248,000.

Explanation:

We have been given that the revenue from manufacturing and selling x units of toaster ovens is given by
`R(x)=-0.3x^2+200x-82,000`.

To find the amount of revenue earned from selling 3,000 toaster, we will substitute
`x=3,000` in the given formula as:

`R(3,000)=-0.03(3,000)^2+200(3,000)-82,000`

`R(3,000)=-0.03*9,000000+600,000-82,000`

`R(3,000)=-270,000+518,000`

`R(3,000)=248,000`

Therefore, the company should expect revenue of $248,000 from selling 3,000 toaster ovens.
