Question

The cost, $$c$$, of manufacturing $$p$$ pots of clay is governed by the equation 

$$c = -0.5p^2 +10p+45$$ 

where $$p$$ is the number of pots produced, in thousands, in a week. 

The company wants the manufacturing cost to be below $$\$85 	ext{,}000$$. The attached graph shows the model. Which of the following is the correct constraint for the situation described?
