Please Help Me!! Last Question! Fan and Medal!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Please show me the right way to do this. NOT THE ANSWER!! Lara sells cakes and sandwiches. The daily cost of making cakes is $610 more than the difference between the square of the number of cakes sold and 40 times the number of cakes sold. The daily cost of making sandwiches is modeled by the following equation: C(x) = 3x2 - 50x + 500 C(x) is the cost in dollars of selling x sandwiches. Which statement best compares the minimum daily cost of making cakes and sandwiches? It is greater for sandwiches than cakes because the approximate minimum cost is $210 for cakes and $292 for sandwiches. It is greater for sandwiches than cakes because the approximate minimum cost is $110 for cakes and $190 for sandwiches. It is greater for cakes than sandwiches because the approximate minimum cost is $292 for cakes and $210 for sandwiches. It is greater for cakes than sandwiches because the approximate minimum cost is $190 for cakes and $110 for sandwiches.

What kinda math is this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The kind that requires your brain. Lol. Jk. It's Algebra I. Final Exam. :-/ UGH

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Damn, i dont remeber this at all, and Im done with algebra I and II and Geometry

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

I can do it but do you have a certain amount of time?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah 5 minutes. Lol

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

hahaha let me stop my other homework and do this then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm sorry. I really appreciate the help though!

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

3x^2-50x+500 x^2-40x+610 are your equations right?

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

sorry for the second one i meant it with a c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We've been pondering over this question for like, 2 hours and I don't get it at all. My cousin is a professor and he doesn't understand it either. Haha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We did end up with those equations though. It's just, that's as far as we got.

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

now do like (0,0) to get your minimum daily cost

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

let me recheck my notes but im pretty sure

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

oh shoot i forgot you need a function that represents the daily cost unless that works without it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay so let's just take a good guess.

OpenStudy (stefrheart):

you sure?
