The Industry demand function for bulk plastics is represented by the following equation: P=800-20Q Where Q represents millions of pounds of plastic. The total cost function for the industry, exclusive of a required return on invested capital, is:

TC=300+500Q+10Q^2

where Q represens millions of pounds of plastic
