Website Profit You operate a gaming website, www.mudbeast.net, where users must pay a small fee to log on. When you charged $3 the demand was 1120 log-ons per month. When you lowered the price to $2.50, the demand increased to 1400 log-ons per month. (a) Construct a linear demand function for your website and hence obtain the monthly revenue R as a function of the log-on fee x. R(x) = = (b) Your Internet provider charges you a monthly fee of $50 to maintain your site. Express your monthly profit P as a function of the log-on fee x. P(x) = Determine the log-on fee you should charge to obtain the largest possible monthly profit (in dollars). X = $ What is the largest possible monthly profit (in dollars)? $ LA
