    The revenue for selling x candles is given by f(x)=12x. The teams profit is $40 less than 80% of the revenue of selling x candles. write a function g to model the profit.

    Profit = Revenue - Cost

    We are given the revenue function f(x) = 12x. We are told the profit is 0.8(Revenue) - 40. Our profit function P(x) is:
    P(x) = 0.8(12x) - 40

    Simplifying, we have:
    P(x) = 9.6x - 40
