Answer:


-x^2+63x-130

Explanation:

When you put that into an equation:


x(88-x)-(130+25x)

Next, solve.


\mathrm{Apply\:the\:distributive\:law}:\quad \:-\left(a+b\right)=-a-b


-\left(130+25x\right)=-130-25x


=x\left(88-x\right)-130-25x


x(88-x):88x-x^2


=88x-x^2-130-25x


88x-x^2-130-25x =-x^2+63x-130

Therefore, the profit if the cost of producing
x units is
-x^2+63x-130, and there may be restrictions depending on conditions.
