Agroup of artists is selling small prints to raise money for charity. they sell p prints, and make a profit of f(p) on the sales. if f(p) = 17p − 340, which statement is true? a. if the group sells 12 prints, they will lose $204. b. if the group sells 28 prints, they will lose $136. c. if the group sells 35 prints, they will make $935. d. if the group sells 15 prints, they will lose $85.

The correct answer is is D) If the group sells 15 prints they will loose $85.

To figure out which statement is true, we have to evaluate the function ,

for all the values given in options (A)-(D).  A negative output represents a loss and  a positive output will represent a profit.

In A so . In this case we gather that if they sell 12 prints, they will make a loss of $136. This tells us that option A is wrong.

In B, so . In this case we gather that if they sell 28 prints, they make a profit of $136. This tells us that option  B is wrong.

In C, so . In this case we gather that if they sell 35 prints, they make a profit of $225. This tells us that option  C is wrong.

Lastly, so . In this case we gather that if they sell 28 prints, they make a loss of 85 dollars. From this we gather that D is the correct option.
