F(x) = x² increases at a faster rate than g(x) = 2x.
f(x)
Reason:
x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
f(x) = 0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49
g(x) = 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14.
Comparing the values of f(x) and g(x), we can see that that of f(x) are far higher than that of g(x) for the same values of x.
So f(x) increases at a faster rate.

Let the CP be ₹x,
SP = ₹2400
Profit = SP – CP
= 2400 – x
Profit % = {(2400–x)/ x} × 100%
According to the question,
{(2400–x)/ x} × 100 = 25
=> (2400–x)/ x= 25 /100
=> 100(2400–x) = 25x [ cross multiplication]
=> 240000 – 100x = 25x
=> 240000 = 25x + 100x
=> 240000 = 125x
=> 240000/125 = x
=> x = 1920
So, CP = ₹1920
case 2,
SP = ₹2040
Profit = SP – CP
= 2040 – 1920
= ₹120
profit % = 120/1920 × 100%
= 16%
<h3>Thus, his profit would be 16% if he had sold his goods for ₹2040.</h3>
