Answer 1

Im not too awesome at them but I can try to help

Answer 2

ok ill post the problem

Answer 3

MS word is launching

Answer 4

the red is what you've solved

Answer 5

correct

Answer 6

or should i say what i think ive solvelol

Answer 7

haha well there are a couple pieces of info that are missing for example days sold

Answer 8

man I wish i had my old math book infront me

Answer 9

let see what wolframalpha says

Answer 10

so you got x=60 for the low so you plug in 60 into the equation and you should get your answer for how many tickets will be sold on the low

Answer 11

same with the high

Answer 12

there are 2 solutions to the equation

Answer 13

because of the quadratic equation only produces 2 answers

Answer 14

well correction one answer is probably negative so it would not work correctly

Answer 15

thats really all i remember

Answer 16

in the equation is this where i would divide 60 ?

Answer 17

x=60 you stated that for the low and stated it peaks at x=1

Answer 18

all you need to do is plug in x

Answer 19

most people dont realize that they can use that aspect of basic algebra in the problem

Answer 20

its still so confusing to me ive been working this problem for over a week and still not done

Answer 21

so for example if i were to give you the equation 2= 2x+1 and gave you x=1/2 you would just plug in the 1/2 instead of solving it correct? its the same concept

Answer 22

i hated intermediate algebra didnt do well in it but im a regular genius in trig

Answer 23

so i put in 60 for x and follow order of operation and that will be the answer?

Answer 24

\[0.2(60)^{2}+12(60)+11\]

Answer 25

is that correct?

Answer 26

exactly

Answer 27

im hoping i does give a 0 though

Answer 28

it shouldnt

Answer 29

-12+720+11

Answer 30

dont forget the negative!

Answer 31

1451?

Answer 32

it was a positive or does the sign change

Answer 33

the equation was -.2x^2+12x+11 correct?

Answer 34

you shouldve gotten 721 as an answer for the low if it is 60

Answer 35

\[0.2x ^{2}+12x+11\]

Answer 36

thats the original equation

Answer 37

why is it negative in the document?

Answer 38

it is my fault

Answer 39

the only problem with your work is that you are suppose to end up with less with the low then the high you end up with 22.8 on the high

Answer 40

or 23.2 with that new equation

Answer 41

so then which one is wrong

Answer 42

and when i use the quadratic equation im getting -.903 and 60.903

Answer 43

so are you saying everything i have so far is wrong?

Answer 44

the low is on the first day and the high is on the last day it seems

Answer 45

so the 721 is also wrong then

Answer 46

that your high is what imsaying

Answer 47

ok so 721 is the high

Answer 48

yes and 22.8 is the low based on the equation -.2x^2+12x+11

Answer 49

do we know how to get the point of vertex?

Answer 50

needs to be a vertex form

Answer 51

huh now im lost

Answer 52

i hate this stuff
