Problem 1

Calculate total cost (disregarding any fixed costs) or total profit. Total profit from marginal profit. A concert promoter sells \(x\) tickets and has a marginal-profit function given by $$P^{\prime}(x)=2 x-150$$ where \(P^{\prime}(x)\) is in dollars per ticket. This means that the rate of change of total profit with respect to the number of tickets sold, \(x\), is \(P^{\prime}(x)\). Find the total profit from the sale of the first 300 tickets.
