Question

A certain company's main source of income is a mobile app.The company's annual profit (in millions of dollars) as a function of the app's price in dollars) is modeled byP(x) = -2(x - 3)(x - 11)What would be the company's profit if the app price is 0 dollars?[ ] million dollars

Answer 1

The company's annual profit (in millions of dollars) as a function of the app's price in dollars) is modeled by :

P(x) = -2(x - 3)(x - 11)

If the app price is zero : i.e. x = 0

Susbtitute x = 0 in the function of P(x)

P( x ) = -2( x - 3 )( x - 11 )

P( 0 ) = -2( 0 - 3 )( 0 - 11 )

P ( 0 ) = -2(-3)( -11)

P( 0 ) = 6( - 11 )

P( 0 ) = -66

There will be the loss of 66 dollars

Answer : -66 million dollars
