The following function shows the relationship between the selling prices and profit P(s), in dollars, for a company; P(s) -20s^2 + 1,400 - 12,000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which statement best describes the intervals where he company profit increases, decreased or records a maximum?

iYuko (iyuko):

s is the independent variable. Negative a means the parabola opens down. The vertex is at: s = -b/(2a) = -1400 / -40 = 35 Since the parabola open downward P(s) is a maximum at s=35 From left to right the function increases to that maximum at s=35 then decreases after so it increases from 10 to 35 and decreases from 35 to 100

iYuko (iyuko):
