Option C is correct P (q) = - 0.005q^{2} + 2.25q - 100

Explanation:

Profit P (q) = R (q) - C (q)

Profit = Revenue - Cost

So,

P (q) = - 0.005q^{2} + 2.5q - 100 - 0.25q

P (q) = - 0.005q^{2} + 2.25q - 100

In order to find break even, you should plug 50 and 400 into the formula P (q) = - 0.005q^{2} + 2.25q - 100
