sales will drop. If the price is too low, the revenue brought in may not cover the cost to produce the shirts. After months of data
collection, the sales team determines that the monthly profit is approximated byf(p) =-50p +2050p-20,700, where p is the
price per shirt and f(p) is the monthly profit based on that price.
(a) Find the price that generates the maximum profit.
(b) Find the maximum profit.
