Sybil grows and sells watermelons. The function C = 4n + 15 represents her cost, in

dollars, for producing n watermelons. Her revenue, or the amount she receives for

selling n watermelons, can be represented by the function R = 6n. Which function

represents Sybil's profit, P, for selling n watermelons?

    Profit = revenue - cost

    So your function is

    Profit = 6n - (4n+15)

    Which you can simplify to

    6n-4n-15

    =2n-15

    Answer: Sybil's profit is represented by the expression P = 2n+15

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the Profit formula:

    Profit (P) = Revenue (R) - Cost (C)

    Since:

    C = 4n + 15 R = 6n

    Replacing with the values given

    P = (6n) - (4n + 15)

    Subtracting alike terms

    P = 6n - 4n + 15

    P = 2n+15

    Sybil's profit is represented by the expression P = 2n+15

    Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
