Question

If the profit is the difference between the revenue and the cost, what expression represents the profit?

Answer 1

3x + 140 I believe is your answer there was another person who asked this question yesterday and that was the answer attached. I hope this may help in some way.

Answer 2

5x – 260

Explanation:

The following information is missing:

The revenue, in dollars, of a company that makes toy cars can be modeled by the polynomial 3x² + 4x – 60. The cost, in dollars, of producing the toy cars can be modeled by 3x² – x + 200. The number of toy cars sold is represented by x.

Given that:

profit = revenue - cost

Replacing with data:

profit = 3x² + 4x – 60 - (3x² – x + 200)

which can be expressed as:

3x² + 4x – 60

-

3x² – x + 200

--------------------

0x² + 5x - 260
