p (x) = 1,000 - 25x

C(x) = 2,150 + 250x

where p() is the wholesale price in United States dollars at which y thousand laptops can be sold and

C(x) is in thousands of dollars. The domain of both functions is, 1 < x < 10.

Formulate a revenue function (R (x), and a profit function P(x), assuming both are in

thousands of dollars.

Graph the functions C(x), R(x) and P(x) using the same cartesian plane.

Find the value of r that will produce the maximum revenue. What is the maximum revenue to

the nearest thousand dollars?

What is the wholesale price per computer (to the nearest dollar) that produces the maximum
