P x R x C x
The revenue, cost, and profit for a product, each in terms of dollars for sales of x units, are given below:
Revenue
Cost
Profit
P x R C x We can refer to the function P as the difference of functions R and C
It can also be seen from the graph that profit is the difference of revenue and cost

Expected temperature T(h) for August 24 is a function of hour of day:
Evaporation rate E(T) of a small lake is a function of outside temperature:
Define evaporation rate as a function of hour of day:
E h E T h We can refer to the function P as the composition of functions E and T
