Can I get the measures of the figures? I’d be glad to help :))

Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function that represents the amount of mosquitoes as;
M(x) = -(x-5)² + 25
To get the maximum mosquitoes possible, we need to first find x;
At the maximum dM/dx = 0
dM//dx = -2(x-5)
0 = -2(x-5)
-2(x-5) = 0
-2x + 10 = 0
-2x = -10
x = 10/2
x = 5
Substitute x = 5 into the function;
M(5) = −(5−5)² +25
M(5) = 0+25
M(5) = 25
Hence the maximum number of mosquitoes is 25
(0,0), (3,0), (-6,0), and (7,0)
