The food concessionaire sold an average of 1,375 hamburgers on game night. When the price was raised to $3.00, hamburger sales dropped off to an average of 1,250 per night. The concessionaire's fixed costs were $1,133.60 per night and the variable cost was $2.60 per hamburger. Answer the following questions (A) through (F). (A) Assume that the relationship between price p and demand x is linear. Express p as a function of x and find the domain of this function. p=nothing The domain of p is nothing.
