Suppose that the Best Custom Calendar Company models the coming year's revenuse and cost functions, in thousands of dollars, to be R(x)= -x^3+9x^2 and C(x)=2x^3-12x^2+30x, where x represents units of 1000 calendars and where teh model is thought to be accurate up to approximately x=5.5. Round the dollar amounts to the nearest dollar.
What is the profitable zone of calendar production levels?
What is the maximum profit and the level of production that will generate the maximum profit?
What is the maximum loss and the level of production generating this maximum loss when the ompnay is not in the profitable zone?

Do you agree with the statement that “ cubic functions must have at least 1x-intercept but not more than 3, whereas quadratic functions may or may not have x-intercepts.Provide evidence to support your position.arrow_forwardFor a certain company, the cost function for producing x items is C (x)=30x+100 and the revenue function for selling x items is R(x)=-0.5(x-90)^2+4,050. The maximum capacity of the company is 130 items. 1. Assuming that the company sells all that it produces, what is the profit function? 2. What is the domain of P(x)? 3. The company can choose to produce either 60 or 70 items. What is their profit for each case and which level of production should they choose? 4. Why does the company make less profit when producing 10 more units?arrow_forward
- For a certain company, the cost function for producing x items is C(x)=50x+200 and the revenue function for selling x items is R(x)=−0.5(x−90)2+4,050. The maximum capacity of the company is 110 items. The profit function P(x) is the revenue function R(x) (how much it takes in) minus the cost function C(x) (how much it spends). In economic models, one typically assumes that a company wants to maximize its profit, or at least make a profit! Answers to some of the questions are given below so that you can check your work. Assuming that the company sells all that it produces, what is the profit function? P(x)= What is the domain of P(x)? Hint: Does calculating P(x) make sense when x=−10 or x=1,000?arrow_forwardFor a certain company, the cost function for producing x items is C(x)=50x+150 and the revenue function for selling x items is R(x)=−0.5(x−130)2+8,450. The maximum capacity of the company is 190 items. The profit function P(x) is the revenue function R(x) (how much it takes in) minus the cost function C(x) (how much it spends). In economic models, one typically assumes that a company wants to maximize its profit, or at least make a profit! Answers to some of the questions are given below so that you can check your work. Assuming that the company sells all that it produces, what is the profit function? P(x)= . Hint: Profit = Revenue - Cost as we examined in Discussion 3. What is the domain of P(x)? Hint: Does calculating P(x) make sense when x=−10 or x=1,000? The company can choose to produce either 80 or 90 items. What is their profit for each case, and which level of production should they choose? Profit when producing 80 items = Profit when producing 90 items =…arrow_forwardA company manufactures and sells x pocket calculators per week. If the weekly cost and demand equations are given by: C(x) = 8000 + 5x p = 14 - x/4,000 , 0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 25,000 Find the production level that maximizes profitarrow_forward
