The annual cost C (in thousands of dollars) and revenue R (in thousands of dollars) for a company each year from 2010 through 2016 can be approximated by the models C = 254 - 9t + 1.1t2 and R = 345 + 3.8t where t is the year, with t = 10 corresponding to 2010. (a) Write a function P that represents the annual profit of the company. P(t) =
