Answer:

  • $150 and $56250

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a quadratic function with negative leading coefficient.

The graph opens down and its maximum is at vertex.

The x-coordinate of the vertex is given by x = -b/2a:

  • x = -750/(-2.5*2) = 150

The $150 price will maximize revenue:

  • R(150) = -2.5*150² + 750*150 = 56250
