8×9=72
5×8=40
So the answer is 8
Can you give the data please?
Answer:
x is the price the helmets were sold at.
y is the business expenses.
r is the revenue.
500x - y = r
Step-by-step explanation:
500x - y = r
We multiply x, the price that the helmets were sold at. Then we subtract y, which is the business expenses. After this, we get r, our revenue.
To get the extrema, derive the function.
You get y' = 2x^-1/3 - 2.
Set this equal to zero, and you get x=0 as the location of a critical point.
Since you are on a closed interval [-1, 1], those points can also have an extrema.
Your min is right, but the max isn't at (1,1). At x=-1, you get y=5 (y = 3(-1)^2/3 -2(-1); (-1)^2/3 = 1, not -1).
Thus, the maximum is at (-1, 5).
