In this example problem, we use the given information to create a revenue function and a cost function. We then use those to create a profit function. We take its derivative and set it equal to zero, then solve down to find our critical value (number). We then use the 2nd derivative test to verify that our critical number will give us a maximum profit. We then work the problem a second way, by taking the derivative of the revenue function and the cost function to give us the marginal revenue and marginal cost functions. These are set equal to each other and we solve the resulting equation to find the same value of q that will maximize our profit.
