Question

please help

Answer 1

Sure. What's up?

Answer 2

The function f(x) = −x2 + 44x − 384 models the daily profit, in dollars, a shop makes for selling donut combos, where x is the number of combos sold and f(x) is the amount of profit.

Part A: Determine the vertex. What does this calculation mean in the context of the problem?
Part B: Determine the x-intercepts. What do these values mean in the context of the problem?

Answer 3

algebra 1

Answer 4

Hm.. I think I've seen this problem before.. ;)

Answer 5

Since I'm assuming this is a parabola, did you mean -x^2 or x times 2?

Answer 6

the first one

Answer 7

Okay, so -x squared. I was confused for a sec and I was like wuh... xD Okay, so I'm going to get the answer myself and then I'll lead you through it. I'll take a couple minutes.

Answer 8

oh sry i have the anseer is this right

Answer 9

i thought i posted it

Answer 10

A.
−(x2−44x+484−484+384)

−(x−22)2+100

Vertex is (22,100)
Since the equation is in the form -(x-a)^2 +b, meaning the vertex is the maximum point of the curve.
Relating to the situation, it just means that 100 is the maximum profit and 22 is the corresponding number of combos sold

B. To get the x-intercepts, just factor it out.
x-int is (x,0)
so. 0=(x-32)(X-12)
x-intercepts are 12 and 32
in these points, f(x)=0 which means the profit is also zero.

Answer 21

do you know how to find the vertex of a parabola?

Answer 22

no

Answer 23

teach me

Answer 24

no

Answer 25

Don't know sorry

Answer 26

ok thx any way party

Answer 27

\(x=\dfrac{-b}{2a}\)

in the general formula

\(y=\color{red}{a}x^2+\color{blue}{b}x+c\)

Answer 28

so find the values from your equation and plug them in

Answer 29

Once you find the x, you input it back into the equation to find the y

Answer 30

um idu sry

Answer 31

bait, channel that brainpower and stop trying to plant that bomb

Answer 32

what

Answer 33

from your equation, find a

Answer 43

@baitcaster13 You gotta use more brainpower than 2 syllable words and abbreviations. We need you popping out equations

Answer 44

@baitcaster13 find a, which should be attached to \(x^2\)

Answer 45

Think, you want to solve for the vertex. Follow the formula

Answer 46
