Question 15 • FL-1200330-Algebra 2 CR

What do the zeroes mean in context?

Answer
A
If soccer balls are sold for $2.05 each, the store will make a daily profit of $14.61.
B
If soccer balls are sold for $14.61 each, the store will make a daily profit of $2.05.
C
If soccer balls are sold for $2.05 or $14.61 each, the store will maximize their daily profit.
D
If soccer balls are sold for $2.05 or $14.61 each, the store will break even but will not make a profit.

Explanation

A zero of a profit function is a price at which the profit equals zero. So selling soccer balls for either $2.05 or $14.61 means the store breaks even, rather than making a profit. The zeroes do not identify the price that maximizes profit.
