Answer 1

The maximum amount of profit the carnival makes based on the number of tickets sold is 6.5 thousand of dollars,

How to determine the difference?

The function is given as:

f(x) = -0.5x^2 + 5x - 6

Differentiate the function

f'(x) = -x + 5

Set to 0

-x + 5 = 0

Make x the subject

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 in f(x)

f(5) = -0.5 * 5^2 + 5 * 5 - 6

f(5) = 6.5

The table is not given.

Hence, the maximum amount of profit the carnival makes based on the number of tickets sold is 6.5 thousand of dollars,
