Question

From 2003 through 2008, the sales R1 (in thousands of dollars) for one of two restaurants owned by the same parent company can be modeled by

R1 = 470 − 8t − 0.8t2, t = 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

where t = 3 represents 2003. During the same six-year period, the sales R2 (in thousands of dollars) for the second restaurant can be modeled by

R2 = 294 + 0.78t, t = 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.
(a) Write a function R3 that represents the total sales of the two restaurants owned by the same parent company.
R3 =?
