please help
OpenStudy (alexwee123):
oh my did i hear the f word? XD
before we start did you make a mistake in the equation? is there supposed to be a t next to the 94?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
will give medal
OpenStudy (alexwee123):
ok first we need to find out where the maximum point is
the general equation to quadratics equations like this is y=Ax^2+bx+c
we'd use x=-b/2a to find the x coordinate of the maximum point
you following me?

yes
OpenStudy (alexwee123):
ok ill set it up for you then you can do the simplification
\[X=\frac{ -94 }{ 2\times-16 }\]
solve for x please
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how?
OpenStudy (alexwee123):
you divide -94 with (2 times -16)
you might need a calculator

yes good job
if we round the answer we'd get 3
now which of the answer choices contain 3?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the first one?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the last one
OpenStudy (alexwee123):
good job
ok now which one seems to be the answer?
remember* at x=3 is when the function is at its maximum

I think the last one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
am I correct I think its the last one
OpenStudy (anonymous):
please I will be your fan can you help me
OpenStudy (alexwee123):
no
if it's the last one then it's stating that at x=0 is the maximum and that it ends at x=3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so the first one?
