Answer:

P(x) = -0.32x² + 200x + (-52)

Explanation:

A company sells lab equipment. Daily revenue and costs are modeled by the function as given in the question.

Revenue: R(x) = -0.32x² + 270x

Cost : C(x) = 70x + 52

Here x = Number of units sold.

Now we have to determine the function P(x) for daily profit.

Since Profit = Revenue - Cost

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

P(x) = (-0.32x² + 270x) - (70x + 52)

= -0.32x² + 270x - 70x - 52

P(x) = -0.32x² + 200x - 52

Therefore, answer will be P(x) = -0.32x² + 200x + (-52)

Subtract the cost from the revenue:

(-0.32x^2+270x) - (70x+52)

270x - 70x = 200x


The answer would be -0.32x^2 + 200x + - 52
