A company manufactures notebook computers. Its marketing research department, using statistical techniques, collected the data shown in the table, where p is the wholesale price per computer at which x thousand computers can be x(thousands) sold. Using special analytical techniques (regression analysis), an analyst produced the price-demand function p(x) = 2,500-50x, 1 x25 to model the data.
