A clothing retailer is going to mail out 10,000 catalogues. It costs $2 to mail out each catalogue. When a customer places an order from a catalogue assume a profit of $50 per order is earned. It is assumed that 5% of those who receive a catalogue will place an order however, this number can vary. Use the file below to help you with your tables. Assume that: [total profit = total profit made from the orders the amount spent on mailing out the catalogues].

a) Use a one-variable data table to determine how the total profit earned from the mailing will vary depending on a response rate between 4% and 10% (with increments of 2%).

b) Create a two-variable data table to show how the total profit changes with a varying response rate and number of catalogues mailed. Vary the response rate between 4% and 10% with increments of 2% and vary the number of catalogues mailed from 10,000 to 30,000 at increments of 5000.
