The revenue, in dollars, of a company that produces jeans can be modeled by 2x2 + 17x – 175. The cost, in dollars, of producing the jeans can be modeled by 2x2 – 3x – 125. The number of pairs of jeans that have been sold is represented by x. The profit is the difference between the revenue and the cost, 20x – 50.

If 75 pairs are sold, what's the company's profit?

a)$500
b)$1,450
c)$1,500
d) $2,250
