CAN SOMEONE HELP ME ASP!!

The profit function, P(x) , revenue function, R(x), and cost function, C(x), are related by the equation P(x)=R(x)-C(x) . Manuel has determined that the revenue and cost functions for a new product line at his business are given by these functions. R(x)=3x C(x)=600+2x. What is the profit function in standard form for Manuel's new product line

Answer 1

P(x) = 5x - 600

Explanation:

Given

Cost function C(x) = 600+2x

revenue function R(x) = 3x

If the profit function is related by the equation

P(x)=R(x)-C(x)

P(x)= 3x - (600-2x)

open the parenthesis

P(x) = 3x - 600 + 2x

P(x) = 3x+2x - 600

P(x) = 5x-600

Hence the profit function in standard form for Manuel's new product line is P(x) = 5x - 600
