Part A
As the company has increased in popularity, it has continued to add employees in all departments. The
production facility manager has provided data that shows the relationship between the number of units
produced in an hour and the number of workers on the production line during that hour. The data is
shown in the table.

Number of workers
12
10
21
27

Units Produced
31
1,192
1142
192
1,040
1,092
1,142

Question 1
What type of function would best model the data? Use observations of the output values to justify your
answer.

if the eqn of the parabola is f(x) = (x-4)(x+2), we need to mult. this out to find the coordinates of the vertex.

then f(x) = x^2 + 2x - 4x - 8, and f(x) = x^2 - 2x - 8.

one way in which you can find the vertex is to calculate x = -b / (2a).   here, that comes to

        )

x = = 1.   f(1) = 1^2 - 2(1) - 8 = - 9.   vertex is at (1, -9).

        2(1) 

find another point on the curve:   let x=0, for which y=-8.   then (0, -8) is on the curve.   plot the vertex and this point and draw a smooth parabola thru both.

hope this
