where x represents the number of radios produced and sold weekly and P(x) represents the weekly profit in dollars.

(a) Determine MP, the marginal profit function. Evaluate MP(700) and interpret.


(b) If the Hanash Corporation is producing and selling 700 radios per week, is profit increasing or decreasing?
