-The polynomial function $\mathrm { P } ( x ) = 0.95 x - 84$ models the relationship between the number of pretzels $x$ that a certain vendor sells and the profit the vendor makes, $\mathrm { P } ( \mathrm { x } )$. Find $\mathrm { P } ( 800 )$, the profit the vendor makes from selling 800 pretzels.
A) $- \$ 74.50$
B) $\$ 716$
C) $\$ 676$
D) $\$ 760$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the profit from selling 800 pretzels, substitute $x = 800$ into the function: $P(800) = 0.95 \times 800 - 84 = 760 - 84 = 676$.
