3. The profit for a company is given by the equation y = -0.0002x 2 + 140x – 250,000 where x is the number of units sold and y is the profit. Determine the number of units that should be sold to yield the maximum profit.

9514 1404 393

  350,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex of the quadratic ax²+bx+c is located at x=-b/(2a). For the given profit function, the number of units (x) that will produce maximum profit is ...

  x = -(140)/(2(-0.0002)) = 1,400,000/4

  x = 350,000

350,000 units should be sold to maximize profit.

(1, –1), (16, –4), (36, –6)

step-by-step explanation:

given that the function is

this can also be written as

we have to graph this function and check which list of points lie on the graph

see attachment for graph:

we find that the points lying are (1,-1) (16,-4) and (36,-6)

since square root is there we find that x can only be posiitve but y can be since square root both positive and negative.

the answer is b: 18

step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem to .

a^2+b^2=c^2

plug 18 for "r"

the 2 legs are 18 and 24

18^2+24^2=c^2

324+576=c^2

900=c^2

c=30

30-12=18

18 is the radius
