Let the revenue be R, the profit be P, and the cost be
C.
Then, we know that:
Profit
= Revenue - cost
==> Given that R=
x^2+100x
Also, given that C =
240x+500
==> P = x^2 +100x - 240x
-500
==> P = x^2 -140x
-500
We need to find x such that P=
10,000
==> x^2 - 140x -500 =
10,000
==> x^2 -140x -10,500 =
0
We will use the formula to find the
roots.
==> x1= ( 140+248.2)/2 = 194.1 (
approx.)
Then, the number of product must be
sold is 194.
