Lynton runs a rental shop for dirt bikes. He currently charges $60 per bike rental, and he averages 25 rentals per day. Lynton has been experimenting with his rental price, and he knows that for every 5 dollars he raises the rental price, he loses 3 customers per day. Lynton wants to change his rental price in order to maximize his income. Lynton's profit can be estimated with the equation P(x)=(60+5x)(25−3x). Use the profit formula to answer Part A and Part B. Part A: Which answer choice correctly explains approximately how much Lynton should charge per bike rental to maximize his profit? Part B: How much will Lynton earn per day if he maximizes his profit? Select one answer for Part A and one answer for Part B.

Use the system {−9x5−5xy3=27−2y4+7x2=3 and its graph to answer the questions. A graph of the system given in the problem. The graph of the function negative 9 x to the 5th, minus 5x y to the third equals 27 is represented by two curves. The first goes down to negative infinity as x approaches negative infinity and goes up to infinity as x approaches zero. The second curve goes down to negative infinity as x approaches zero from the right, comes up to approximately negative two when x is 1, and goes back down to negative infinity as x approaches infinity. The other equation in the system, negative 2 y to the fourth, plus 7 x squared equals 3, is also represented by two curves that appear as parabolas flattened at the vertices. One is open to the left with a vertex at approximately (negative 0.7, 0). The other is open to the right with a vertex at approximately (0.7, 0). © 2017 FlipSwitch. Created using GeoGebra.

A magazine publisher produces magazines about different science topics. Two of the publisher's magazines are Cool Space Stuff and Mesmerizing Marine Biology. The publisher expects a monthly demand of at least 2000 copies of Cool Space Stuff and at least 1400 copies of Mesmerizing Marine Biology. The publisher is able to print no more than 2500 copies of Cool Space Stuff and 3400 copies of Mesmerizing Marine Biology monthly. However, the publisher must print at least 3800 magazines (of either title) every month to meet the terms of his printing contract. If Cool Space Stuff currently produces a $5 profit for each copy sold, and Mesmerizing Marine Biology produces a $1 loss for each copy sold, how many magazines of each title should the publisher print in order to maximize monthly profit?

The publisher should print 2500 copies of Cool Space Stuff and 1400 copies of Mesmerizing Marine Biology each month.
