Problema Solution

A company that manufactures ink cartridges finds that they can sell x cartridges each week at a price of p dollars each, according to the formula x=3800-100p. What price should they charge for each cartridge if they want to sell 900 cartridges each week?

Answer provided by our tutors

we are given this formula: x=3800-100p

and asked to solve for 'p' when x=900


900 = 3500-100p

p = 26


they should charge $26 for each cartridge
