The graph below shows a company's profit f(x), in dollars, depending on the price of pens x, in dollars, sold by the company:

Graph of quadratic function f of x having x-intercepts at ordered pairs 0, 0 and 6, 0. The vertex is at 3, 120.

Part A: What do the x-intercepts and maximum value of the graph represent? What are the intervals where the function is increasing and decreasing, and what do they represent about the sale and profit? (4 points)

Part B: What is an approximate average rate of change of the graph from x = 3 to x = 5, and what does this rate represent? (3 points)

Part C: Describe the constraints of the domain. (3 points)

the system of inequity is

step-by-step explanation:

from the given graph it is noticed that we have two related lines. one is solid and another is dashed.

if a line passing through two points, then the equation of line is

the solid line passing through the points (0,4) and (4,0).

the related equation of solid line is .

similarly, find the related equation of dashed line. the dashed liune passing through the points (0,0) and (3,1).

the related equation of dashed line is

from the given graph it is noticed that the point (0,1) lies on the shaded region, therefore the point (0,1) must be satisfied by the related equations.

check the related equations by the point (0,1).

this statement is true if the sign of inequality is < instead of equality. since it is an solid line therefore the sign of inequality will be . the required inequality is

similarly, check the second related equation.

it is a dashed line, so this statement is true if the sign of inequality is > . the required inequality is
