PLEASE HELP!!! This is a last minute homework help!!!
A computer software company models the profit on its latest video game using the relation: p(x) = -4x^2+20x-9, where x is the number of games produced in hundred thousands and p(x) is the profit in millions of dollars.
c) what is the profit when 500 000 games are produced?
you know what guys, you guys are useless, i need help and you never help me, i waited 2 hours for the help and no one answered. please don't answer any question from anonymous
yeah, yeah
sorry that no one was here to tell you to, I don't know,
substitute x=5
into the function?
Geez, did you even read what they told you?
PS
don't forget that p(x) is in millions of $$$$
To find the profit when 500,000 games are produced, we need to substitute the value of x into the profit function p(x) = -4x^2 + 20x - 9.
Step-by-step solution:
1. Start with the given profit function: p(x) = -4x^2 + 20x - 9.
2. Replace x with the value of 500,000: p(500,000) = -4(500,000)^2 + 20(500,000) - 9.
3. Simplify: p(500,000) = -4(250,000,000,000) + 10,000,000 - 9.
4. Calculate: p(500,000) = -1,000,000,000,000 + 10,000,000 - 9.
5. Further simplify: p(500,000) = -999,990,000,009.
So, the profit when 500,000 games are produced is -999,990,000,009 million dollars.
