Suppose that a revenue function is given as $R(x) = 6681x$ and a cost function is given as $C(x) = x^3 + 22x^2 - 2892x + 42941$ for $x > 25$, where $x$ is the number of items. What production level $x$ maximizes profit? Your answer should be the whole number that corresponds to the highest profit.

Suppose that a revenue function is given as R(x) = 7741x and a cost function is given as C(x) = x^3 + 380x^2 - 1428x, where x is the number of items. What production level x maximizes profit? Your answer should be the whole number that corresponds to the highest profit.

Suppose the product's revenue function is given by R(q) = 5q^2 + 6004, where R(q) is in dollars and q is the number of units sold. Also, its cost function is given by C(q) = 62q + 1800, where C(q) is in dollars and q is the number of units produced. Find the maximum profit possible. NOTE: If necessary, round the quantity that maximizes profit to the nearest whole value and use that to compute profits.
