A bicycle company is manufacturing a new bicycle and trying to decide on a price that will maximize their profit The graph below represents profitP in thousands class=


Answer :

we have that

the company will make a profit when P(x) is greater than zero

P(x)>0

therefore

In the interval {2,10) ------> company will make a profit

10=10*100=$1,000

2=2*100=$200

prices less than $1,000 and greater than $200
