You work for a company producing cell phones. The cost C for producing x cell phones is C(x)=240x+50,000. The revenue R received from selling x phones is modeled with the function R(x)=2000x−10x2. What is the profit function? (Hint: Profit = Revenue - Cost) For what number of cell phones does your company have no profit or loss? Round to the nearest whole number if necessary.
