3) The demand function for televisions is: p(x)= -1/10x + 550. 1000 tvs are sold a week at $450 but when there is a rebate of $10, an additional 100 are sold. In order to maximize revenue, how large should the rebate be? If the company's cost is c(x) = 74000+120x, what should the size of the rebate be to maximize profit?
