To demonstrate the statement “y varies directly as x”, you will have to have this equation:

y = kx

Where k = constant of the variation

In this problem, you have to substitute the value of x and y to calculate for the constant.             

12 = k (4)

k = 3

The function f(x) = –x2 + 60x – 116 models the monthly profit, in dollars, a shop makes for repairing windshields, where x is th
Fynjy0 [20]
The function is: f ( x ) = - x² + 60 x - 116 is in the form: f ( x ) = a x² + b x + c
Part A:
x = -b / 2 a = - 60 / ( - 2 ) = 30
Then we will charge it into the function:
f ( 30 ) = - 30² + 60 · 30 - 116 = - 900 +1,800 - 116 = 784
The vertex is ( 30, 784 ).
It means that the maximum profit is $784, when 30 windshields are repaired.
Part B:
x 1/2 = ( -60 +/- √(3600 - 464 )/ (- 2 ) = ( -60 +/- 56 ) / ( - 2 )
x 1 = 2, x 2 = 58
It means that a shop has to repair at least 2 windshields and not more than 58 windshields for making a profit.

For num 4 the answer to six is 22 the reason is this formula so write this down for n aswell
n(n+1)/2+1 the example could be as we know for 1 cut we always will have 2 slices so 1(1+1)/2+1 is 2 and for 6 cuts 6(6+1)/2+1 is 22 therefore the answer to 6 cuts is 22 and to n cuts is the formula n(n+1)/2+1
