HELP PLEASE :) WILL MEDAL AND FAN A farmer estimates that if he plants x kilograms of seed in a plot of land , the yield per kilogram of seed will be 50-2x kilograms of produce . The total yield "y" from the plot is the number of kilograms of seed planted multiplied by the yield per kilogram. Find the equation of "y" and graph that portion of the equation for which x is greater than or equal to 0 and y is greater than or equal to 0. (if you cant make the graph the equation for y will suffice :)

OpenStudy (mertsj):

y=x(50-2x) Graph that parabola

OpenStudy (en):

so i'll have to input values for x to graph the parabola?

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Find the x intercepts by letting y =0

OpenStudy (mertsj):

y=-2x^2+50x y=-2x(x-25)

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Find the vertex. Sketch the part of the graph that is between the x intercepts.
