Answer:
The total profit after 5 seasons is 12 ⇒ 3rd answer
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets explain how to solve the problem
- Revenue is the total amount of income by the sale of something
- Cost is total production expenses of something
- Profit is the difference between the total income minus the total cost
- Ex: If R(x) is the revenue function and C(x) is the function of the cost
then the profit function is P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
* Lets solve the problem
- The revenue each season from tickets at the theme part is
represented by t(x) = 3x
∴ The revenue function is t(x) = 3x
- The cost to pay the employees each season is represented by
[tex]r(x)=(1.25)^{x}[/tex]
∴ The cost function is [tex]r(x)=(1.25)^{x}[/tex]
∵ The profit function is the difference between the revenue function
and the cost function
∵ The profit function is p(x)
∴ p(x) = t(x) - r(x)
∴ [tex]p(x)=3x-1.25^{x}[/tex]
- The graph attached is represented the function of the profit p(x)
- The x-axis represent the number of seasons
- The y-axis represent the profit amount
- From the graph the total profit after 5 seasons is 12
- By calculation:
∵ x = 5
∴ [tex]p(5)=3(5)-(1.25)^{5}=11.948[/tex]
∴ The profit ≅ 12
∴ The total profit after 5 seasons is 12
