The profit P in dollars, gained by selling x computers is modeled by p = -5x²+1000x+5000. How many computers must be sold to obtain a profit of 55,000,00

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]p = - 5 {x}^{2} + 1000x + 5000 \\ 5500000 = - 5 {x}^{2} + 1000x + 5000 \\[/tex]

solve for x

Step-by-step explanation:

55,000,00=-5x²+1000x+5000

collect like terms

5x²-1000x= -55,000,00+5000

5x²-1000x = -45000

x²=-45000/5=-9000

x²=square root of 9000=3000

recall

5x²-1000x=3000

-1000x=3000

divide both side by coefficient of x

x= -3
